Today, the cloud is the new normal for enterprise apps, with 70 percent of all organizations having at least one app in the cloud, according to IDG¹s Enterprise Cloud Computing Survey 2016. The cloud makes sharing documents with customers and colleagues more convenient and allows access documents on your desktop or laptop from your phone while working remotely.
