These services attract many individuals and organizations from different disciplines such as health, business and education.

We also provide a comparison between these CSPs with respect to different criteria related to the services they provide. The stud y presented in this paper helps individuals and organizations make critical decisions on benefits and cost of cloud technology before they move their business to this new environment.
