GETTING FINANCE INTO THE CLOUD - PRACTICAL STEPS FOR ADOPTION
Cloud-based finance systems are now becoming the norm, not the exception. Surveys repeatedly highlight that accountants in practice and business understand the potential benefits of the cloud, but data security remains a key concern. This presentation will look at the range of new tools available, explore the ethical and control issues that need to be addressed, and discuss practical ways to adopt cloud technology in the finance function.
