What Is Cloud Computing?
Should I or Shouldn’t I?
That is the question plagued by small to medium sized business’s who when starting out didn’t have the time nor see faith in putting their data in the cloud.
Fast forward a few years and that’s all everyone talks about when it comes to collaboration and making your life easier tech wise. Now sure the idea of putting your valuable information somewhere in the digital sky is somewhat daunting but in today you are prompted at every step and turn with 2FA (which is a nice way of security at the club making sure you are in fact who you say you are) and secure passwords to make sure your data is safe up there. Much more safe than that non patched desktop server that your local IT guy installed 3 years ago and “monitors weekly”.
What to Expect from 2022 for SME's Technology?
In 2021 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) embraced technology like never before. The Australian spending on digital services (such as software and apps) almost doubled between 2009 to 2019, and reached new levels during the pandemic, with ICT expenditure up 13% in Australia between March 2020 and June 2021.
In 2022, technological change will maintain its importance as businesses find ways to strengthen their connection with employees and customers. With growing expectations and the pressure to make a profit in times of economic recovery, SMEs are likely to have a big year ahead.
