Is 2017 looking bright for your company?

What does 2017 look like for you? Are you growing as a company? Are you exploring new avenues to market?

By Mark Edwards, regional operations director, StoneHouse Logic.

Whether you’re planning to take on more employees, launching a new product, or developing your marketing strategy, it’s worth taking a moment at this point in the New Year to think about the stability of your IT set up.

You might need to streamline your outgoings for a while or prepare for a period of rapid expansion. Whatever is happening, pausing to make sure your IT provision is robust and secure can free you to concentrate on other aspects of running your business.

In simple terms, this means that instead of paying thousands of pounds up front for a range of servers that you might not always need, you can invest a monthly sum in exchange for reliable, secure and flexible server provision. It’s worth bearing in mind that Azure’s servers can be kept in a state of dormancy, to be revived and used as and when you need them. The fact that Microsoft has made an industry-leading commitment to the protection and privacy of your data makes it the perfect reliable and cost-effective solution for all your disaster recovery and business continuity needs.
