With on-premises data storage you get: complete ownership of the process and equipment, no offsite data transfers, or risk of someone else’s downtime affecting your business. Datacenters on the other hand offer a cost-effective operating expense model , the ability to quickly scale up or down and access to the provider’s space, power, and security experts.
Another option is cloud storage which gives you
- greater flexibility, scalability, and reliability
- minimal maintenance
- ideal for remote workers and collaboration
Whatever option you choose, ensure your information is stored in a way that's centralized, easily accessible, and secure. And you’ll improve collaboration and create an opportunity to streamline and automate business processes.
