San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/27/2015 -- Cloud9 Real Time, one of the world's top providers of cloud-based Information Technology services, announced the terms of a generous new 7-day free trial offer. After completing a simple sign-up form and getting in touch with a company representative, users will be granted a week's worth of access to Cloud9's industry-leading cloud-based Application Hosting and other services. Over the course of the last several years, Cloud9's innovative, rock-solid QuickBooks Hosting Services have secured more awards than all competitors combined, a reflection of the quality, reliability, and affordability of the company's offerings.

"There is no better way to understand the potential of cloud-based desktop hosting than to jump right in and try it," Cloud9 representative Edward Strychowski said, "With our straightforward, no-obligation, 7-day free trial, getting a feel for the power of the cloud is easier than ever. We hope that many organizations will take advantage of this special opportunity."

The term "cloud" is used within the sphere of Information Technology to describe the transfer of traditionally on-site resources and services to remote data centers maintained by others. Probably the most common way of taking advantage of the cloud, for example, is for companies to have their data stores and backups kept on off-site servers owned and overseen by others.

In practice, the cloud extends beyond such relatively simple uses, and more companies than ever are discovering how cost-effective and useful it can be. Technology giant IBM, for example, predicts that it will derive around $7 billion in 2015 revenue from clients who use its vast server farms to address challenging computational tasks and do other important work.

As one of the clear leaders in this segment, cloud9 real time has become especially well known as a provider of cloud-based application hosting and what are known as desktop-as-a-service capabilities. Hosting the full versions of important, commonly used applications like Intuit's QuickBooks and hundreds of others on its servers, Cloud9 gives clients the ability to access their business-critical data from any authorized location in the world.

Making use of this style of application provision does away with common problems like data file sharing and maintenance headaches. Because all users of a client company's Cloud9-hosted QuickBooks system, for example, connect to the same, scrupulously maintained remote computer, they will always have access to the most recent data and program versions.

By supplying highly reliable, secure, services of this kind, along with the best technical support to be found anywhere, Cloud9 has already helped many client companies cut costs and improve operational efficiency, thereby developing a reputation as one of the strongest players in the industry. The company's cloud-based QuickBooks service, for example, which includes all the major varieties of the software package, has drawn praise from many quarters, including a K2 Quality Technology Award, three consecutive CPA Practice Advisor's Reader's Choice Awards, and more.

In offering an accessible, no-obligation, 7-day free trial, Cloud9 expects to help create even more awareness of the value and quality of the company's whole range of cloud services. Those interested in the new trial or any of Cloud9's offerings can learn more at the company's website.
