For small and midsize businesses, bigger isn’t always better

As your business grows, your processes become more complex, more demands are placed on your time and resources, and your customers expect more. Dealing with bigger demands doesn’t have to mean bigger budgets and more headcount.

Today, cloud computing is transforming how small and midsize companies do business by making it easier to address growth challenges. With a cloud-based Microsoft business solution, you can gain control over your financials and cash flow, streamline operations, and stay connected with customers.

Work smarter, not harder. The cloud opens up new and efficient ways of working, including being able to stay productive from anywhere and access data and insights that improve your customer interactions. With a business management system (ERP), processes like invoicing can be automated to free up your team to focus on other tasks, effectively getting more work done with the same amount of people.

Reduce upfront and operating costs. Rather than spend up front on servers, software, and services, the cloud offers a pay-as-you-go model that allows you to scale as you grow. Microsoft Dynamics and the Microsoft Cloud give you big company capabilities—plus reliable performance, enterprise-grade security, and low maintenance—all without a big company price tag.

Transform your business. Cloud computing transforms IT from a headache into a flexible, affordable driver of innovation. Faribault Woolen Mill is a great example of a growing business using technology to automate operational processes and provide more personalized customer experiences.
