Our managed cloud services can replace your traditional servers and IT services that you currently use, thus reducing your total IT costs.

Coastal Computers can help your businesses lower their costs and increase productivity by moving your operations to the cloud, using server virtualization with our managed cloud services. Access the cloud anywhere whether using a laptop, tablet or smartphone. With cloud computing your company only has to pay a monthly fee to be able to connect to the resources that they need to use through the Internet.

Our managed cloud services allows workers to log into a Web-based service which hosts all the programs the user would need for his or her job. Remote machines owned by another company would run everything from email to word processing to accounting programs. In a cloud computing system, there is a significant workload shift. Local computers no longer have to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to running applications. The network of computers that make up the cloud handles them instead. Hardware and software demands on the users side decrease. The only thing the users computer needs to be able to run is the cloud computing system interface software, which can be a simple as a Web browser, and the clouds network takes care of the rest.

Cloud services fall under 3 categories

Service as a software - SaaS

Saas is a fully developed software application delivered on demand as a service, typically through a Web browser, eliminating the need for many costly infrastructure expenses related to hosting an application on-premise. Some common application types available via the cloud include:

​

• Calendaring

• Email

• Customer relationship management (CRM)

• Security

 

Infrastructure as a service - IaaS

IaaS is a way for small businesses to get the hardware, storage, networking and other services they need to run their operations without worrying about buying, managing or maintaining the equipment. That's a big cost savings, both up front and over time.

Benefits of Cloud Computing for Small Businesses:
 

• Cost Effective / Reduced hardware, software, maintenance, and management costs

• Convenience / More efficient use of limited IT staff

• Simplicity / Increased employee productivity

​

Platform a service - PaaS

​

Platform as a service removes the need for organizations to manage the backbone of the infrastructure (consisting of hardware and operating systems) while allowing your team to focus on the deployment and management of your applications. Paas helps you be more efficient as you don’t need to worry about resource procurement, capacity planning, software maintenance, patching, or any of the other details of running your organizations applications.
