Company is switching over to Cloud Hosting (Security?)

[TommyCS]

The very first question to be asked is "why are you moving to the cloud environment" followed by "do we understand the cloud environment we are likely to choose or do we need consultation." A lot of companies jump to the cloud only to find out they shouldn't have and vice versa. Cloud movements are a 'you need to be as situationally prepared' as possible.

Can it save you money? Oh yes, if you reached a certain entropy. Or have a specific workload, etc. It starts by figuring out your true need before we can really answer your question about security and even that needs more refinement. How secure? What's being secured? Etc.
