At the peak of the information age, we find ourselves faced with a paradox of convenience and security. On one hand, we are producing, transmitting and storing a historically unprecedented amount of information. On the other, much of this information is never physically archived. Security breaches, disorganization, system crashes – many factors put us at risk of losing our data.
For organizations that deal with the transfer and storage of large volumes of data, the security and organization of this data are paramount. Real estate brokerages are held accountable to several parties for the secure management of sensitive information involved in the real estate transaction. Losing or mishandling this data is not an option.
Purchasing a server for your brokerage is rarely a feasible option. Buying, housing and maintaining an office network represents a large financial commitment, and often involves a number of unexpected and recurring expenses. Outsourcing your hosting to a trusted supplier will save you space, time and money.
This is why cloud storage/hosting has become an attractive solution for the modern brokerage. A strong hosting infrastructure offers the convenience of accessing your information anywhere as well as the security of having this information backed up outside of local devices. Cloud storage keeps information up to date and helps to eliminate redundancies and discrepancies.
