This shows how businesses see the importance of allocating their IT budget in an intelligent manner, looking for one system that can reconcile all different applications used on one platform, accessible to all in a single click. 67% of respondents are also looking for a system that can be quickly deployed, basically implying that there should be no downtime during deployment. The speed of today’s market and the sheer amount of competition mean that companies do not have the time nor the money to spend on large IT system changes. Any new solution deployed needs to be able to hit the ground running.
Easy to use and secure
Other important attributes are that a system must be easy to use as well as secure. 70% of our survey respondents are looking for usability for all business users: an intuitive platform that even those less familiar with technology have no problem using, and that ensures higher productivity all around. 85% of respondents have a clear expectation that any platform chosen will be extremely secure and provide clear data protection methods.
All-in-all, a great collaborative platform needs to be quick to deploy, easy to use and secure, and low-priced both in deployment and maintenance.
