Move to the Cloud Easier With Office Essentials Bundle

2012 may be Year of the Dragon this Chinese New Year, but in the tech world it’s more like Year of the Cloud. 2011 saw a lot of companies migrating over to the “ethereal” cloud, computing more efficiently with services rather than products. Getting there can be an issue, both literally and figuratively, but Verecloud, who also brought us Cloudwrangler, introduced a new product to help out in that area.

Verecloud’s latest is a complete Office Essentials Bundle of cloud services which comes with fully-featured Microsoft (News - Alert) Exchange with 5 gigabytes of storage, MozyPro backup for desktop with 5 gigabytes of storage and Microsoft SharePoint collaboration software with 200 megabytes of storage. Putting it all together makes it easier for SMBs to take advantage of the cloud and all of its many computing benefits.

Priced at $19.99 per month with a one year commitment, the Verecloud bundle also offers a month-to-month offering at $21.99 per month per user.

Working in the cloud helps keep the cost down for both the users and website owners. It has more flexibility than other network computing systems and saves time plus money for people who are in a time crunch.

The cloud also offers more storage than a personal computer can. It takes away the need for the upgrading computer memory, which also helps keep the cost down for the companies and users alike.

For SMBs, the challenges of moving to a cloud-based system might seem too daunting to make the switch.

"We understand that the thought of moving to the Cloud can be a bit intimidating for SMBs. That very concern speaks to the strength of our company. We know the importance of easy-to-reach, hands-on support, combined with tools integrated into the Cloudwrangler platform that are designed to help businesses set up their new accounts, monitor and manage their users and get started using all the features available to them right away," said Jeff Hutcheon, Verecloud's Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing in a press release.
