Eighty percent of SMBs in the U.S. say cloud computing contributes to business growth
Eighty percent of SMBs in the U.S. say cloud computing contributes to business growth, and more than 40 percent of SMBs say that business agility and new capabilities are driving SMB cloud adoption, according to a survey from Techaisle.
Previously, SMBs turned to cloud adoption primarily as a way to cut costs. While IT-related costs are still leading SMBs toward cloud services, especially for the opportunity to acquire technologies and applications that would have been too costly otherwise, this is no longer the predominant reason for SMBs to turn to cloud computing.
