Remote teamwork, sharing heavy files, controlling who sees what: what the cloud changes for the day-to-day running of a non-profit.

In this article

The cloud is a set of servers holding computing resources that can be reached remotely over the internet. A great many companies and organisations have adopted it. You can also use the cloud to help your non-profit grow.

Make your non-profit more productive with the cloud

The cloud is an excellent way to increase your non-profit's productivity, because it makes better use of the work everyone puts in. Every member can reach shared files anywhere, at any time, through online software. That lets you work on the same documents together and move your projects forward. Changes made by each contributor appear in the cloud in real time. The cloud for non-profits also guarantees consistent data, so everyone collaborates on the same basis.

The cloud, for managing your non-profit's data well

Managing data in the cloud rests on storing and sharing files. The data sits on the server, but only a limited number of people can reach it. You set the access rules and decide who can view which documents, according to their level of authorisation. The cloud lets you handle large files in all sorts of formats (video, photo, text and so on) effectively. You can share them with members of your organisation by email or through a simple link. Sharing data is fast and secure, and saves you time as work progresses: you can send documents to your partners in a few clicks if you have a decent internet connection. You can secure every exchange by setting an expiry date for the share and an access code for the shared files. The cloud also offers full traceability, so you keep control over how your organisation's data and folders are shared.

Which cloud solution should your non-profit use?

There are plenty of online tools for managing the files of a company or an organisation. To find the right cloud solution for your non-profit, start by defining your needs.
