Google Predicts Cloud, Mobile, Social Will Be the Defining Technologies of 2012

We agree with the prediction of Google Enterprise Vice President Amit Singh.  He sees cloud adoption accelerating in 2012, particularly among small businesses.

As a small business, we feel that most companies will prefer the cloud services of a local provider with a reliable and scalable infrastructure.  While Google's cloud services are certainly reliable, they do not have a local presence and the accessibility of a robust local provider.

On the other hand, we do have to emphasize working with a firm with the proper infrastructure, as many smaller operations may not have the ability to guarantee uptime nor can they grow with your business.
