Cost savings

If you are worried about the price tag that would come with making the switch over to cloud computing, you aren't alone; 20 percent of organizations are concerned about the initial cost of implementing a cloud-based server. But those who are attempting to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of using the cloud need to consider more factors than just initial price; they need to consider ROI.
Once you're on the cloud, easy access to your company's data will save time and money in project start-ups. And, for those who are worried that they'll end up paying for features that they neither need nor want, most cloud computing services are pay-as-you-go. This means that if you don't take advantage of what the cloud has to offer, then at least you won't have to be dropping money on it.
The pay-as-you-go system also applies to the data storage space needed to service your stakeholders and clients, which means that you'll get exactly as much space as you need, and not be charged for any space that you don't. Taken together, these factors result in lower costs and higher returns. Half of all CIOs and IT leaders surveyed by Bitglass reported cost savings in 2015 as a result of using cloud-based applications.
