It is easy to communicate through a network. It makes communication more efficient within that network. The sharing of information and data through a network makes it easier for organisations to maintain their data and facilitate access. Hardware can be shared on a network. For example, a printer can be shared among multiple users in the network, saving the need for each user to have their own personal printer. Networkable versions of software are available, giving large companies considerable savings in software. Sharing and transferring files within networks will save time while also maintaining the integrity of files.
