The video shows some thoughts from these innovators about what’s going on in the cloud—a trend that’s here to stay (but, as one partner points out, the opportunity to build a business around it may not be open forever).
Is the window for jumping in with the cloud going to close? Have we arrived at the point where IT businesses are declining if they choose not to shift focus to the cloud?

I think what’s very interesting and exciting about the cloud is that you no longer restricted by what it is that you have and within your organization or your actual company business side.

As the cloud evolves seen their new opportunities for them if something comes out and would directly impact your customers bottom line. Being able to reach out to them easily and quickly and say hey this would be excited for you guys let’s talk about it.

We first started the cloud business, we would have to sell the customer on the idea of going to the cloud. The customer is already sold. They know that going to the cloud is the best idea. What we are doing is helping them understand the steps to get there and then the things that they can do in the cloud.

In the industry for the past 10 15 years it’s always “going to be coming..” “clouds coming..” “cloud cloud cloud..” I would suggest in my experience the last two or three years, it’s really started in a serious way but the window is still open. So for partners that are thinking about jumping on board now’s the time because the window is open right now and it won’t be open forever. It’s either make the change or your business will decline and your customers will leave so that now is the time to make it happen.
