Weather Resistant Business Continuity

We’ve having the worst snow in decades according to the statistics. We’ve been bought to a standstill. According to the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), lost employee productivity could cost the UK £600m per day.
The good news for our clients is there are no excuses for an extended holiday since their custom-built business management systems can be accessed from anywhere there is an internet connection.
It might be a stretch to say we are making local businesses productive, but clients using our software have a much better chance of working undisrupted if staff can continue to access the systems they rely on during the current weather conditions.
Our web-based systems have business continuity built in - even if you can't get to your office, you can still use the software. Grant Smith, Director of one of our long standing clients, AzteQ Solutions Ltd, found this out recently: "The snow has been particularly bad where we are, and many of my team have struggled to get into work. The fact that the system Nuvola developed is not tied to our office, though, has made it a lot easier for people to work from home. This has certainly saved us time, money and a lot of frustration in recent weeks."
And of course, this technology makes businesses more robust at any time. If your office is flooded or you're a victim of fire or theft, you can still access your data, and back-ups are taken care of without you having to think about it. As well as this built-in stability, the ability to work flexibly from anywhere, all year round, is clearly an advantage in today's world.
For any businesses out there still using traditional software instead of cloud applications, this is a good time to talk to Nuvola. Until February 2010, you can receive 20% off your initial order quoting SNOW.
