# [Cloud Computing and its Significance for Associations](https://www.cetrom.net/resources/blog/uncategorized/cloud-computing-and-its-significance-for-associations)

A few thousand people attended this year’s ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition in Dallas, many of them interested in moving their association to the Cloud. Attendees were looking for a Cloud provider with association experience, who will customize their solution to fit the needs of their particular organization, as well as deliver. These association members also recognized a fundamental benefit of the Cloud- its value. It’s time for you, too, to consider the Cloud if your association faces any of the following challenges:

- Unpredictable IT costs, including annual license/upgrade fees and hardware maintenance/replacement
- Server downtime, hindering productivity
- Minimal network security
- No remote access of information resources
- Limited flexibility/scalability for members
