The cloud IT delivery model is well suited to NFPs for a number of fundamental reasons. There are little to no upfront costs with cloud services and consumption is usually billed on a monthly subscription basis, allowing for predictable budgeting.
There are also fewer IT staff requirements; this is ideal for NFPs who might not have the resources to hire skilled technical staff. In the specific case of server hardware, no servers need to be purchased, maintained, or recycled with a cloud service.
Other tangible benefits of the cloud for NFPs include rapid deployment of services, and the convenience of being able to use the service from any location – ideal for staff and volunteers.
Technology information resource for NFPs and libraries, Techsoup.org, makes a strong case for cloud computing adoption among NFPs. Anna Jaeger, co-director of TechSoup's GreenTech Initiative, concludes: “Small to medium-sized non-profits who have limited capital, limited space, and limited technical staff can benefit financially and environmentally from using cloud computing. It saves energy, reduces the amount of hardware needed, and is often technically easier to install and maintain than in-house applications.”
