		<description><![CDATA[Security seems to be the number one concern when small businesses consider shifting their functions over to cloud computing. I think its the idea of sharing space containing sensitive information with so many unknown entities. A secure co-location provided by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mtinc.net/managed-it-services.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;managed IT&lt;/a&gt; services is a good compromise between the low cost benefits of cloud computing and the security of a private server.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Ayeshna,

Thanks for reading and your questions. Certainly some SMBs desire to enter new markets in other countries contributes to driving these trends. However, the majority of U.S. SMBs don&#039;t do business on a global scale. The more fundamental drivers for mobile and cloud relate to helping them achieve their basic business goals--growing the business, attracting new customers, being more profitable, etc. and overcoming tech challenges--implementing new solutions, keeping systems up and running, etc.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Great article. As far as I know DimDim is no longer available. Other free web conferencing tools are mikogo, showdocument, yugma etc. However, quality of web conferencing is very important while conducting webinars. I would suggest, try using paid services such as WebEx, gomeetnow, gotomeeting etc. in order to have quality online meetings, online conferencing etc. Another option is to deploy on premise web conferencing appliance such as RHUB appliances.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I really like the insights provided within this article but one thing I would like to understand further is what in the &quot;global world&quot; is driving these SMB behaviours. SMB customers are demanding these particular technologies lists above, for example mobility, cloud computing - but what has actually driven this new desire? Is it that SMBs are operating more globally, as technology has blurred national borders? Is that SMBs are running out of space and therefore cloud computing enables them with the technology they require to operate on a more global scale or in more confined cities? 

Would love to hear your thoughts on this?]]></description>
