Technology Used in Business: Cloud for Startups

Your business will depend heavily on technology for communication, accounting, inventory, sales and more. Using a cloud productivity suite like Microsoft Office 365 can simplify and tie together all aspects of office productivity, seamlessly linking email, calendar, accounting and more. There are many affordable packages that are cost-effective for small companies. We will help you determine which productivity suite is in use in your industry sector. Cloud suites make it easy for your employees to access their work from mobile devices or work-from-home offices. Using cloud applications can also reduce the amount of local storage required for your network. We can help your business with these IT productivity tools:

Office productivity suites for document sharing, calendar, email, accounting and more
Customer relationship management systems and automation
Website hosting
Internet desk phone systems (VoIP) or virtual PBX systems
