Top Reasons to Move Your SAP Applications to The Cloud

SAP and Microsoft work better together.

Cloud computing is an important resource that has gained growing support businesses of all sizes worldwide. These businesses are attracted to the cost-effective competitive benefits the cloud affords to smaller business. By providing access to tools that otherwise would be unavailable to them, cloud computing enables companies to become more agile, operate more efficiently and grow.

Cloud computing makes it possible for users to access data, applications, and services over the Internet. The cloud eliminates the need for costly hardware, such as hard drives and servers – and gives users the ability to work from anywhere. Over 90% of businesses are already using cloud technology in a public, private or hybrid cloud environment.

The most important reasons for customers to consider cloud-based computing:

• Fast implementation time, providing quick access to functionality
• Reduced IT efforts because both hardware and software operation and maintenance are the provider’s responsibility
• Flexibility due to subscription rather than licensing contracts and “pay-what-you-use” concepts
• Scalability to support changing business needs and supporting growth strategy
