			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With all the discussion about cloud computing and the recent Microsoft announcement of a cloud computing platform called Azure, we thought we would take a moment to discuss the cloud and how our customers have been automating document creation in our cloud for years.  All of the talk and discussion is simply validation for what we have seen for years . . . moving document creation to our cloud drives efficiencies, lowers costs and delivers scale to any business, large or small.</p>
<p>The past couple of weeks have been flooded with new announcements and discussions of cloud computing coming from Salesforce.com, Amazon, Google, Microsoft and posts like Tim O&#8217;Reilly&#8217;s <a href="http://radar.oreilly.com/2008/10/web-20-and-cloud-computing.html" target="_blank">Web 2.0 and Cloud Computing</a>.</p>
<p><strong>So What Exactly is the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing" target="_blank">Cloud</a>?</strong></p>
<p>The cloud is just a metaphor for the Internet and its underlying infrastructure.  Many companies, like us, have been delivering services on-demand, now often referred to as cloud-based applications, for years.  So what&#8217;s new?  It can get even more confusing as many people use the term cloud in different ways.  For example, some define the cloud simply at the infrastructure level (like Amazon S3).  Others define the cloud as web applications running in the cloud (like Salesforce.com).  Regardless of the definition, buzz word or latest acronym, the value of the cloud to a business is significant and real.</p>
<p><strong>Drawloop&#8217;s Cloud</strong>:  Automate Your Document Creation</p>
<p>We offer <a href="http://www.drawloop.com/solutions/">cloud-based end-user applications</a> to quickly automate all of your document creation.  With a web browser and the same Microsoft Office documents your company has used for years, you can instantly run all of your documents in our cloud.  Our document automation service allows you to move document creation from a desktop function to a web application or what we call a <a href="http://www.drawloop.com/ddps/">Dynamic Document Package</a> (DDP).  A DDP can be deployed anywhere on the web and integrated with any web service, like Salesforce.com.  Our document service provides your administrators with the added benefit of working with the documents in their normal desktop environment.  In other words, your legal team will still be able to update and edit your contract terms and conditions in the same Microsoft Word application they have used for years.  Our approach is a unique balance between the past and the future which is critical to effectively manage all of the documents required to help sell and service your business.</p>

<p><strong>What is the Business Value?</strong></p>
<p>Automating document creation in our cloud will drive significant business value . . . increased productivity, increased revenue, faster sales cycle, and a significant reduction in the expenses associated with traditional document creation (man hours, software, versions, updates, networks, training and the list goes on and on).  Our customers realize an immediate return on investment while reducing costs associated with document creation.</p>
