Barry Sloane, Chairman, President and CEO of The Small Business Authority^® commented, "The concept of cloud computing is still foreign to many independent business owners. Having all hardware, software and data available off-premise 24/7 should and will be a requirement for good business practice going forward. The cloud for small business reduces:

• Cost of servers
• In-house or external labor costs
• Power costs
• Bandwidth cost

The cloud is arguably much more secure and, all around, a better solution for business than non-cloud based technology. We hope our small business clients in next year's survey come around to embrace cloud computing in bigger and more robust ways."
