Everyone’s talking about cloud computing, but how can it help with business on the road, and what are the pros and cons? Alex Blyth reports.

Cloud computing is a phrase business travel buyers have been hearing more and more frequently in the past couple of years. Some herald it as a revolution in how we do business, while others dismiss it as merely the buzz-phrase of the moment.

The reality is in fact somewhere in between. Properly understood and carefully implemented, cloud computing has the potential to help your executives remain productive while on the road, while also cutting costs and minimising risks in your business. It is without doubt an area that all travel buyers should understand.
