For SafeVisitor, we use the synonymous terms “cloud hosted” or “cloud based” to describe the software; however, someone with minimal knowledge of software may have no clue what these terms mean. We want to provide some insight into the meaning and benefits of being cloud based.
What Does it Mean to be “Cloud Hosted”?
A cloud hosted software is one that is made available through the Internet. The software is not uploaded to one’s personal computer, as it can simply be accessed through the Internet. Data can be stored and processed through this online software. Basically, cloud based software does not require servers or computers in an office to run it. Instead, it is all accessible online.
Benefits of Cloud Hosted
There are many benefits to having cloud based software:
It is available anywhere there is Internet access.
The user can log-in on any computer.
It provides real-time data - meaning edits can be made and automatically integrated into the software.
Updates to software do not require any additional downloads.
Multiple users can access the software at the same time.
Data is continuously backed up to minimize data lost during crashes.
When it comes to running our SafeVisitor software on your system, the cloud based accessibility is a huge plus. It makes using SafeVisitor to ensure safety of any building or facility extremely easy. It also diminishes the fear of experiencing a system failure. As long as there is electricity and Internet access, the cloud-based data is available to protect the safety of those needing it,
