Businesses are increasingly adopting cloud-first strategies – and for good reason. It can often be more secure and easier to afford. Employees are more likely to accept cloud computing than they were a few years ago, partly due to its demonstrated success and positive media attention. InfoWorld said, "Notice that cost is not the primary driver for CIOs’ move to cloud computing. Indeed, most CIOs don’t consider cost, even though there is typically a cost advantage to using cloud computing." If you have not considered cloud-first, along with being cost effective, there are also a lot of other great benefits.
