Cloud Hosting Solutions for Retail

Benefits of QuickBooks Hosting or Sage Hosting for Retail Businesses

What can cloud computing do for a retail business? Cloud technology benefits retail businesses in countless ways from improved inventory management and enhanced supply chain visibility to higher data security and better disaster recovery.

There are plenty of other reasons why you should begin your digital transformation by moving to QuickBooks cloud hosting or cloud hosted Sage. When you use the cloud, you can enjoy enhanced insights and real-time snapshots thanks to secure, anywhere access to your software. Additionally, retailers enjoy the flexibility, customization and business scalability the cloud offers, especially in a dedicated setting: unlike in a shared server setting, dedicated hosting lets you customize your server with the tools and resources you need as your business grows.

With the selection of a hosting provider, you’ll also reduce IT-related expenses and time spent dealing with IT headaches since cloud providers take over these responsibilities for you.

I had been experiencing a number of glitches with our former system. Summit Hosting staff were able to remedy them all in less than 15 min from the time I put in an online ticket. Could not be happier with their response time.
