Cloud servers vs. In-house. Which is the best solution? Which will cost you less in the long run? These are questions that small and medium-sized business owners have been asking themselves for several years now.
Now most data is stored in the public cloud. This works great for some businesses. But is it right for you?
If your server is just down the hall, you have a lot more control. You don’t have to pay hosting fees, you can upgrade it to meet your company’s requirements and you don’t have to rely on anyone else, (like a cloud service) for security.
On the other hand, running an in-house server can get pretty expensive. You’ll have to put a lot of money upfront to buy equipment and software. And, who will look after the server once you install it? Unless you’re an IT whiz, you’ll have to hire a professional to maintain it. And don’t forget the money you’ll spend on renewing software licenses and hardware upgrades.
If you opt for a cloud-based server, you don’t need specific skills to manage it and you don’t have to pay professionals to look after it. You can use the money you save on salaries for other projects. A cloud server also allows you to scale up or down, to meet your business needs.
