Sorry to say but there's no definite answer on this one. The short answer is that most businesses are already at least partially in the cloud. Any online software solutions that you use are, essentially, cloud services. The decision to move exclusively to the cloud, with no on-premise infrastructure, is a big one with many layers to consider. Do you have an adequate (and redundant) internet connection? Are you prepared to accept more ongoing, monthly fees? Do you have a proper plan for backing up your data in the cloud? Whether you should move your business to the cloud is an individual decision that requires a lot of discussion and planning with an IT professional. There are so many benefits but also some risks so having the knowledge and understanding to know what is right for your business and your company culture is key. Also, it's not usually a 'clean break', but rather one that happens over time as hardware or applications are being replaced.
