Take advantage of the latest cloud computing technology that allows businesses of every size to be more efficient and agile in their day-to-day operations.
There’s a lot of buzz around “the cloud” in the marketplace. So you might be wondering, what does cloud computing mean exactly and how does it work? There are many definitions, but stated in simple terms, cloud computing is an online service in which computer power, software programs and data storage are provided wherever and whenever you need it.
Sounds easy, right? Well, it is – with the right provider.
Cox Business customers in Omaha can now take advantage of the benefits of cloud computing, due to Cox’s partnership with First National Technology Solutions (FNTS). Both companies are excited about this venture because it joins two solid, local brands that have a record of success in the Omaha metropolitan area. Their offering is ideal because it’s a fully scalable, flexible and elastic virtual hosting solution that provides cost containment for their customer.
Derrick Hill, vice president of Cox Business in Omaha explains the benefits of cloud computing, “The most appealing components of cloud computing include flexibility, cost containment and a dedicated IT focus,” Hill continues, “Because infrastructure is now commodity driven, customers can access large amounts of processing power and can decide when to lower or increase capacity based on business cycles. Companies can now pay for what they use and utilize this technology to optimize short-term projects, develop platforms and maintain business practices during disaster recovery situations.”
Hill explains, “This is why cloud computing is really taking off in today’s business world. Every company strives to be more efficient and compete in a manner that accelerates their technology and communication platforms to a level of speed that is expected by their customers. Cloud computing is a solution that not only meets those needs, but is also here to stay for the long run.”
Ken Kucera, CEO of FNTS agrees with Hill’s viewpoint, “We’ve been providing a cloud solution for more than five years. Our client base spans several industries and over twenty eight states and keeps growing. This technology is solid and is incredibly versatile.”
With other solutions available in the marketplace, Kucera is asked why businesses should select the Cox cloud computing solution, powered by FNTS , “Aside from offering a cost-effective pricing structure, we are highly experienced in delivering infrastructure services. Our Tier IV data center facility provides the reliability and trust businesses need and should expect with their vendors.”
It’s this level of trust and reliability that brought these two brands together. Hill states, “We are thrilled to partner with FNTS. They have a stellar national reputation delivering this solution which is highly compatible with our online backup service offering. Our customers have also told us how much they value local account management provided by both Cox and FNTS. Our teams truly work together to identify the best solution that fits the tailored needs of the customer.”
