Hypermarket Ventures Ltd Have Launched Cloudhypermarket.com in an Attempt to Help Small Businesses to Accelerate Out of the Downturn

With growing optimism about the end of the recession, businesses everywhere are looking to grow their operations, whilst at the same time keeping a handle on costs. With the banks not lending businesses are looking for new and innovative solutions to allow them to grow. Nowadays, IT is a central part of every business but traditionally can be prohibitively expensive.

London, United Kingdom, May 16, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Some of the world’s largest IT companies such as Google, Microsoft and IBM are now hoping to solve this challenge by offering IT solutions which can be bought and used in a completely different way. IT can now be a service rather than an asset. Software-as-a-service, delivered from The Cloud, is being hyped as the future of IT. The challenge at present is that no-one outside of IT really understands what The Cloud is about. Different vendors, using different terminology and varying features, means it’s difficult for businesses to understand which one is right for them.

Cloudhypermarket.com is a new service which has been launched in an attempt to demystify The Cloud. It is designed for small businesses to help them understand what The Cloud is and what it could mean for them. It allows businesses to quickly and simply search for a range of services, such as cloud email and backup – replacing their servers with a secure online equivalent. All the legwork involved with organising and grouping features together has been done, which makes it simple for non-IT folks to understand.

Integration with Facebook’s new ‘Like’ functionality means the community can vote on their preferred service which is used to highlight the most popular. This provides impartial recommendations along with the site’s comprehensive analysis of how each service compares on price and functionality.

The beauty of The Cloud is it promises small businesses the opportunity to compete with much larger rivals by having access to the same IT systems. It provides the opportunity to lease IT services - removing the need for large up-front expense. This means businesses can grow without needing expensive IT upgrades and without borrowing money from the banks. Cloudhypermarket.com’s aim is to provide a gateway for small businesses to enable them to embrace this new technology and accelerate out of the downturn.
