The White Paper examines Cloud Computing's impact on the existing channel structure. A lot has been written about the pros and cons of various Cloud Computing but very little has been talked about the impact on the channel.
The document provides insights and guidelines on how ICT distribution channels operate. We have gone to great lengths to simplify, standardize, and make relevant each value and category element to provide a concise globally-applicable definition set.
As SMBs increasingly adopt cloud computing and reach a new level of complexity: the very technology that had a low start-up cost for them may become a "sink-hole" of IT budget. White Paper discusses about the reality and outcome in next several years.
A comprehensive report in US, UK, Germany,
Italy, Canada, France, Brazil, Australia, Malaysia to understand adoption, usage, priorities, trends, budgets for mobility solutions among SMBs (includes iPads, Smartphones, Tablet PCs trends).
The main objective of the study is to understand the issues being faced by channel partners (VARs, SPs) in addressing the Managed Services, Cloud and Mobility Solutions needs of SMBs.
TRACKING THE FUTURE OF SMBs
With cloud computing and rise of the new "SMB worker", SMBs think differently on how to purchase IT. It is not a race to the top of an IT building block, but how can an SMB reach its full potential in the shortest time.
While SMB Cloud Computing continues its march towards increased adoption, barriers remain. What actions a Cloud Computing vendor can take now to address the SMB non-believers, non-users, non-adopters?
SMB Primary Research conducted in US, UK, Germany, Australia, China, India to understand the purchase intent, price sensitivity, emotional and utilitarian reasons for purchase of Ultrabooks as compared to Tablets and Notebooks
SMB Primary Research conducted in US, UK, Germany, Australia, China, India to understand the current and planned adoption of business intelligence solutions, types of solutions including cloud-based, features desired, as well as barriers to adoption
The main objective of the study based on primary research is to enable IT vendors and service providers gain a better understanding of SMB Cloud Computing market opportunity along with issues, concerns, problems and challenges in US, UK, Germany, Brazil, Australia, China, Malaysia, India.
