When choosing a Quickbooks Cloud Hosting company to work with, it’s equally important to evaluate the factors that will ultimately contribute to and enable your growth. For starters, you might wonder:

• What kind of support does my team need?
• Does x company have the ability to scale as we do?
• Which provider offers the most security for my sensitive information?
• What price-to-value offerings suit my needs?

And the list goes on. However, at gotomyerp, we know that there is no “one size fits all” solution which is why we’d like to help in your research to find a reliable solution to accommodate your hosting needs. Some providers may be a better fit for your company’s size, while others may offer the security that your business requires. In this article, we’ll navigate the pros and cons of working with gotomyerp and a few of our competitors to help you find the option that works best for you.

Right Networks

Right Networks is a good option for businesses who are just starting off, have no complexities or do not need a high level support. They offer high-level data protection and remote access for tax and accounting firms and small-medium-sized businesses in a shared computing environment.

Pros	Cons
Remote Access to QuickBooks	Pre-configured System Settings
Data Security	Automatically Updates QuickBooks
Data Protection and Backup	Slow Servers During Peak Times
Customer Service	Shared Computing Environment

Pros:

• Data Security: RN customers enjoy a high level of data security to protect against hackers.
• Remote access: If you and your team have a stable internet connection, you can access your QuickBooks or tax accounting software anywhere in the world.
• Data Protection and Backup: Right networks take great measures to protect sensitive data with backup protection and encryption.
• Customer Support: Many reviews speak highly of Right Network’s customer support team and their ability to solve problems.

Cons:

• Pre-Configured Settings: Pre-configured settings make it easy to use Right Network’s hosting platform “out of the box.” However, you’ll have to contact their team about any modifications to fit your needs.
• Automatically Updates QuickBooks: For some, this may be a non-issue. However, if you have limited bandwidth on your internet connection, untimely updates can seriously slow down your system and stimy your work productivity.
• Server Speeds: Some customer reviews highlight that Right Network’s server speeds at peak times can affect the productivity of their employees.

AWS

AWS Hosting is what we like to refer to as “self-hosting”. While the interface can be easy to use and the service optimizes the price to the value you’ll receive, there is a certain level of technical know-how required to operate AWS Hosting.

Pros	Cons
Ease of Use	Complex Environment
Pricing Structure	Technical Support Fee
Speed and Flexibility	Technical Learning Curve
Secure

Pros:

• Ease of Use: AWS allows users to use famili ar programming models and operating systems.
• Pricing Structure: They keep their pricing optimized for their customers by allowing users to pick and choose the services they need and do away with the bells and whistles that aren’t needed.
• Speed and Flexibility: You can remotely access your hosting service quickly as long as you have a stable internet connection.
• Secure: AWS has data centers scattered across the globe and is one of the market leaders when it comes to data security and encryption.

Cons:

• Complex Environment: 
• Technical Support Fee: If you don’t have an AWS expert on your team, chances are you’ll need support in setting up and maintaining your hosting environment. Unfortunately, Amazon charges for their support services, so this is something to consider if your team lacks IT knowledge.
• Technical Learning Curve: AWS is not an out-of-the-box type of service. It is a complex system with its own rules that your team will need to learn and grow accustomed to.
