Cloud Computing: Small Business Inventory Management for You

Stockpile makes small business inventory management easy!

In a previous post, we discussed the advantages of cloud computing, particularly for small businesses. Being able to leverage big time solutions, like small business inventory management from Canvus, can really level the competitive playing field. For example, our small business inventory system will save you time and money. Reducing the amount of time and money that you have to earmark for technology increases the resources available for other aspects of your business. It’s important to know what your expectations are before you start evaluating cloud solutions though. Identify what it is that you are hoping to achieve by switching your technology. Whether your goal is to save money, gain access to a new application, or simply increase your amount of data storage; cloud computing can really benefit your company. Knowing what you want will make it that much easier to find the right solution for your business. If you don't know exactly what you want or need, then try free solutions like our small business inventory management tool, Stockpile. By using free tools, you'll at least get an understanding of what your needs really are.

When considering cloud computing, some companies fear a loss of control and/or security, but realistically having access to the same technology solutions as multi-billion dollar firms generally provides more reliable and more secure services. Storing your private records in just one location that you can easily access might seem secure, but if something compromises that location all that information could be lost. Cloud storage provides a back-up. Your data is still yours even when it’s stored in the cloud. When you are utilizing an infrastructure that is maintained by a world-class company, you can rest assured that your information is secure.

Additionally, cloud computing can provide better performance because it allows you to stay up to date with the most recent technologies available. With Stockpile, we keep your small business inventory management solution up to date with monthly (sometimes weekly) releases. Because you are “renting” the resources that you need you are able to upgrade without the full cost of replacing the old technology with new. This flexibility alone can provide better security and increase your ability to capitalize on your assets.

When your small business can think like a big company but still move like a small one it brings your business goals in reach. Using cloud computing for your technology needs can have a ripple effect on your whole business. At Stockpile we want to help your small business succeed. Check back with us soon to learn more about the ways that your small business can be mighty. And try our small business inventory management solution to see what all the fuss is about. It's free, cloud-based and ready to give you your time back!
