As early as 2012, Gartner Inc. had predicted that the cloud would store one third of consumers’ digital files. At that time, a lot of folks were still in a quandary as to what cloud computing was. There were a lot of questions about it. Folks were curious about the “cloud.” They wondered what the “cloud” was and its purpose.
Fast forward to today, cloud computing has made its way into the mainstream. It has gone a long way since its “time-sharing” days back in the 1950s. Nowadays, more and more small businesses are relying on the cloud to protect their digital files. It makes more sense for them to invest in the “cloud” than to set up an infrastructure onsite. File backups are automatic and at the same time, secure.
Cloud-backup solutions are now very affordable for small businesses to secure and manage their digital files. It makes a lot of sense why more and more small business owners are now trusting cloud backup and storage. The value proposition and data security that it provides small business owners is what makes it very popular these days.
