Chapter 7 topics: Define collaboration. Define and describe cloud-based collaboration. The CIO of Ace Accounting Services suggests that the company can save considerable money using VoIP for phone calls. Define and describe VoIP. Then present three companies that provide VoIP offerings. Compare and contrast each company’s offering. Also, discuss whether or not you agree with the CIO and justify why. List the questions one should consider when evaluating a cloud-based collaborative solution. please reply: 1) Define collaboration? Collaboration is a framework that allows us to define common values between data and software to create reusable systems that are reusable across applications and tools. As a company, we have different needs for each use case, and the ability to share data without duplicating the code and resources (Stergiou, Psannis, Kim, & Gupta, 2018). Define and describe cloud-based collaboration? We use cloud-based collaboration to create the best business products for our clients and customers. And here, you will find an easy to understand website design to help you get the right design for a project in less time (Langmead & Nellore, 2018). Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line. Ooma Ra division and Nextiva using VOIP(Langmead & Nellore, 2018). List the questions one should consider when evaluating a cloud-based collaborative solution? What are the physical and logical access controls, and the health checking processes? How do you evaluate open source or cloud software? How is a company protecting high value? What's the lowest fee/performance ratio that you can make a profit off? And can you meet those numbers? Reference Langmead, B., & Nellore, A. (2018). Cloud computing for genomic data analysis and collaboration. Nature Reviews Genetics, 19(4), 208. 2)Define collaboration. collaboration is a situation where multiple parties converge toward a common goal. The term can be applied to a technology that allows individuals or groups to work together. This covers a wide spectrum of technologies, including social and interactive media and other social platforms. Define and describe cloud-based collaboration. Collaboration in the cloud is the process where shared documents are stored in a central storage in the cloud. Different people, usually members of a team, have access to the cloud, which gives them authorization to upload, open, modify, and leave comments on documents. As a result of this arrangement, people can work together on virtually the same files (Lillian, Chew, Ling, & Hoe, 2018, p. 607). Define and describe VoIP. Then present three companies that provide VoIP offerings. Questions to consider when evaluating a cloud-based collaborative solution are: What cloud services do you offer? What is your pricing structure? How secure is your cloud? Where is your data center and how secure is it? What happens if you lose my data? What customer service services do you offer? How will I access my company's cloud? Define and describe VoIP. Then present three companies that provide VoIP offerings. VoIP is the technology that converts your voice into a digital signal, allowing you to make a call directly from a computer, VoIP phone, or other data-based devices. Simply put, it is a telephone service delivered over the Internet. RingCentral: Starting price per month $ 22.99. Features include voicemail to text, toll free or local number, 100 free minutes per month. Vonage: Starting price per month $ 14.99. Its features include unlimited talk and text, mobile and desktop applications. Frontera: Starting price per month Varies. Its features include shared workstations, auto attendant, desktop wallet (Ganguly, 2008, p. 18). I agree, with the CEO of Ace accounting services that company can save considerable money using VoIP for phone calls with the accessibility and the usability to make using internet from anywhere.

For this project, select an organization that has leveraged Cloud Computing technologies in an attempt to improve profitability or to give them a competitive advantage. Research the organization to understand the challenges that they faced and how they intended to use Cloud Computing to overcome their challenges. The paper should include the following sections each called out with a header:• Company Overview: The section should include the company name, the industry they are in, and a general overview of the organization. • Challenges: Discuss the challenges the organization had that limited their profitability and/or competitiveness and how they planned to leverage Cloud Computing to overcome their challenges. • Solution: Describe the organization’s Cloud Computing implementation and the benefits they realized from the implementation. What was the result of implementing Cloud Computing? Did they meet their objectives for fall short? This section should contain the bulk of your detail. • Conclusion: Summarize the most important ideas from the paper and also make recommendations or how they might have achieved even greater success.This paper should not be a cursory overview. This is a technical class and should be a review of the technical solution. It should detail what was moved to the cloud, what cloud services were and are being consumed, and what the results were. It is not a persuasive paper trying to convince someone to move to the cloud, but an analysis of an organization that has already done so.Warning: If you choose Netflix, be certain to include precisely how cloud services are being used to facilitate their business. There are numerous resources that detail this, but it is vital that you understand exactly what cloud mechanisms are used to facilitate their business. Important - this is a research paper about organizations that consume cloud services. You should not write about Amazon, Azure, Google, Apple, IBM, or other cloud providersRequirements:Evidence of copying from other papers or not properly citing sources could result in a score of zero.The paper must adhere to APA guidelines including Title and Reference pages. There should be at least three scholarly sources listed on the reference page. Each source should be cited in the body of the paper to give credit where due. Per APA, the paper should use a 12-point Time New Roman font, should be double spaced throughout, and the first sentence of each paragraph should be indented .5 inches.
