When Disaster Tests Your Business, Cloud Communications Can Save It
In the wake of Hurricane Sandy and a host of other recent natural disasters, many small and medium businesses (SMBs) are finding a silver lining in the Cloud: the kind of geographical diversity in communications and backup that can keep a business running, even when the immediate area around the office is devastated.
Cloud communications technology not only offers more flexible ways to communicate and collaborate, but it’s your best bet for business continuity in the face of disaster.

"Before 8x8, my insurance agency was damaged by Hurricane Ike and the day after the storm, customers who called in to set up their claims heard a recording that said "This number is no longer in service" for 45 days after the storm! If I had 8x8 before the storm, everyone could have taken the phones with them and we could have been in constant contact with our customers!"

“If your entire communications solution is running in the Cloud, as long as you or one of your employees can access a mobile phone or the Internet from anywhere, you’re still in business, while everyone else is scrambling to react. To your customers, your business can still appear to be functioning normally. Calls can be routed to mobile devices or remote employees’ computers, and you can still receive and respond to voicemail messages.”
