Top 10 Ways Cloud Managed Services Will Help You

Over recent years, emerging startups, small and mid-sized businesses to large enterprises are adopting the cloud as the backbone for their network infrastructure. So, now you might have already initiated your cloud journey, or you may be ready to transition your network to the cloud and integrate cloud services and applications into your current business processes. However, it can be challenging for your organization to ensure the smooth running of your cloud systems and infrastructure while also focusing on your core business.

Hence, Cloud Managed Services (CMS) are a critical service requirement that enterprises actively seek today. As per a latest report, the global cloud managed services market size was $46.50 Billion in 2019 and is projected to reach $129.26 Billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 13.8% in the forecast period. And the reason behind this exponential growth? In this blog, we’ll share insights on the top 10 benefits you gain by partnering with a cloud managed services provider.

Benefits of Cloud Managed Services

Cloud Managed Services provide a range of benefits such as automating business-critical application workflows, reducing recurring expenses, increasing IT system efficiencies, and helping enterprises to achieve their business goals faster.

Especially for organizations running multi-tenant systems or hybrid clouds, cloud managed services can be highly beneficial, as it comes with 24/7 technical support and IT management & monitoring services, often with a flat fee. This way, organizations do not have to worry about the lack of in-house skills or spiraling service costs.

That said, there is more to Cloud Managed Services than resource availability and reduced costs. Let’s look at the top 10 ways enterprises can reap the benefits of Cloud Managed Services:

1. Optimize cloud spend

A reliable network infrastructure with on-demand resources to scale/shrink as needed, priced in a ‘pay-as-you-go’ model are go-to reasons to opt for cloud managed services. With a CMS partnership, organizations can customize cloud resources on a need basis, estimate budgets, and allocate upfront costs, avoiding alarming bills for unused resources. SecureKloud’s cloud managed services, on average, enable 50% or more cost savings in your cloud bills.

2. Reduce infrastructure costs

Organizations can achieve better cloud cost management by leveraging the cloud infrastructure provided by the managed cloud service provider. CMS providers will set up and maintain your cloud infrastructure including cloud assets and hardware. This can save tons of expenses like infrastructure setup costs, maintenance & support, hiring staff, and continuous network monitoring costs, to name a few. For instance, at SecureKloud, we can assure a 3x reduction in infrastructure expenses.

3. Automate upgrades with compliance support

By default, CMS providers stay updated on all compliance and regulatory requirements as part of their business best practice. On the contrary, it is difficult for organizations (especially regulated industries like healthcare and finance) to keep following industry compliances on a daily basis.

For such organizations Cloud Managed Services can provide huge relief as the service provider will not only provide cloud consultation to upgrade infrastructure as demanded, but also set up auto-updates for security, compliance, and privacy regulations from time to time.

4. Minimize time-to-market

By outsourcing cloud management, organizations experience increased business agility by leveraging automation capabilities, high availability, application scalability, reduced costs, and continuous network support. CMS liberates organizational resources to focus on innovation and enables them to reach the market faster without getting stumped by resource limitations. With SecureKloud’s cloud managed services you can gain 10x faster cloud deployment.

5. Strengthen cybersecurity & network security

Network infrastructure is the backbone of cloud-based businesses and CMS providers help safeguard it. When this infrastructure is susceptible to external threats it can break the entire business. Setting up, maintaining, and monitoring network infrastructure requires niche skills and vast experience, and CMS providers are equipped and experienced to handle such network and cybersecurity challenges. CMS providers also provide 24/7 cloud security services, network monitoring services, and tech support to ensure your data, network, and infrastructure stay protected 24/7/365 days.

6. Enable disaster recovery support

In the event of unexpected disasters, organizations with on-premise data centers pose a greater risk of losing data forever. With Cloud Managed Services, organizations can safely retrieve data without downtime as CMS providers have greater control over failovers, with automatic server replacements in case of unexpected hosting server failures.

7. Centralize control of cloud tasks

Managing cloud infrastructure internally with in-house resources also means higher resource allocation, heavier investments in maintenance & monitoring, and bigger risks on data security and network management. By partnering with a CMS provider, enterprises can centralize all cloud management tasks in one place, view periodic performances, and avail guaranteed tech support with continuous asset monitoring & management.

8. Get 24/7 support

Most CMS providers offer 24/7 on-call options, tech support and weekend support (based on SLA (Service Level Agreements)) across global time zones, relieving enterprises from the fear of resource shortage or lack of expert support during critical times and wee hours.

9. Enable real-time monitoring

Managing cloud environment requires 24/7 monitoring & maintenance support. With an in-house cloud management team, it is unrealistic to expect critical resources to work 24/7. An experienced CMS provider will be able to provide continuous cloud monitoring, maintenance, and support service along with expert assistance, as and when required.

10. Stay abreast of cloud advancements

Cloud adoption is the first step towards future-proofing your business and partnering with a CMS provider can assure the durability and reliability of business services along with cloud readiness. A good CMS provider with Cloud engineering & automation capabilities can provide AI-based security upgrades for your cloud network, infrastructure, storage, and computing for your entire organization, keeping your business future ready.
