Every SMB is looking to cut down on costs. Whether it’s staff costs or operational overheads, reducing expenditure is always at top of mind for most company directors. If you’re looking at ways to save IT management costs for your architectural, engineering, or construction firm, consider transitioning to a hosted software model from traditional IT.

How does hosted software save you money?

In addition to reliable back-ups, easy and remote access as well as scalability, a hosted software model reduces time spent evaluating the procurement of software while also applying a usage-based model. In other words, the time to manage servers, network, storage, and back-up in a physical IT environment will require far more resources and billing hours than a monthly recurring expense when hosted in the cloud. Not to mention, the large upfront sum for set-up is often not affordable for most companies. With cloud hosting software, one-time costs are not required, allowing you to distribute your costs over a year or a specific period of time.
