Enterprises lose millions by not fully exploiting their IT
Failure to make the most of their technology investments could be costing large enterprises almost $100m a year according to a new study.
The report from user experience company WalkMe shows enterprises struggle to give employees the ability to use digital tools as they are intended and to their fullest extent.
Enterprise integration is key to business but few have a strategy
Most business leaders (57 percent) believe an enterprise integration strategy is critical to their organization, while 61 percent of CIOs and more than half of system architects and developers said a standardized, enterprise integration strategy is a top priority.
However, only seven percent of respondents have succeeded in implementing an enterprise integration strategy, according to a new study from Digibee, while 93 percent of decision-makers admit they have no formal integration strategy in place.
Enterprises struggle with application modernization
According to a new study 93 percent of enterprise IT leaders say the application modernization process is challenging due to staffing, tools, training and other issues.
The survey from Asperitas finds 30 percent of IT leaders say identifying the right tools and technologies is the most difficult part of the process, while 20 percent say it's finding staff with the right experience.
The role of IT is changing: Here's how enterprises need to adjust
The way we work has transformed. Increased digitalization, hybrid and fully remote work styles, and the integration of new and emerging technologies are all individual challenges in themselves -- but now, organizations and business leaders are expected to adapt to these changes simultaneously or risk falling behind.
This presents many issues for IT departments. The normalization of remote and hybrid teams and competitive industry pressures are major contributing factors to the increasingly prominent role IT needs to have in strategic decision-making.
Banks choose to build their own tech solutions
While banks are investing in technology solutions to meet increasing demands, a new study shows that 61 percent prefer to build their own technology stack, rather than buy technology solutions from a third party.
The study from IT services company NTT DATA surveyed 900 senior banking respondents across 12 countries and examines the state of corporate banking following the COVID-19 pandemic.
Successful AI deployment needs to be enterprise wide
Businesses are keen to capitalize on AI, with 72 percent of business leaders in a new survey believing their competitors are using AI, and 63 percent concerned their competitors will use AI to gain an advantage over their own business.
But the study from SambaNova Systems, of over 2100 enterprise and IT leaders based in the US, UK, and Germany, shows just 18 percent of organizations with AI are rolling it out as a large-scale enterprise-class initiative. The majority -- 82 percent -- are rolling it out as multiple programs, creating disorganization and hindering successful deployment.
RPA is not a silver bullet: Why no-code holds the key to digital transformation success
If the UK’s businesses didn’t need to modernize before the pandemic, they certainly do now. The existential crisis many were plunged into over the past two years has reinforced the resolve of boardrooms everywhere that digital transformation is the future. When deployed effectively, it helps to deliver the agility that every business craves, whilst driving the operational efficiencies and productivity gains essential to survival in a period of high inflation and rising costs.
In this context, robotic process automation (RPA) can be a useful tool. But when deployed the wrong way, or in isolation, it may actually end up worsening legacy dependencies rather than alleviating them. Instead, organizations need to think about the bigger picture -- by bringing together apps, automation and extensible integration in a single no-code platform. That’s the best way to achieve modernization at a pace that fits the business.
Overview of network operations is crucial for IT teams
A unified view of network operations is essential for IT teams that want to improve the digital customer experience while boosting their overall productivity, according to a new study.
A new survey for Riverbed, conducted by IDC, reveals that 90 percent of respondents currently use observability tools, yet 60 percent of them believe those tools are too narrowly focused and fail to provide a complete and unified view of their organization's operating conditions.
Breaking through the noise: What have we got wrong about digital transformation?
Digital Transformation -- it’s a term used and adored by many, and a concept that private and public sectors are striving for. But what is it really?
With the term cropping up in various contexts, it has become increasingly hard to pin down what digital transformation is into one common consensus. Rather, it has developed into a go-to term synonymous with a revolving door of new tech trends. Moving on little from the wave of CIOs of the mid-2010s who moved things to the cloud and coined it as 'digital transformation'.
Why a people-centric culture is critical to security, growth and transformation [Q&A]
Digital transformation is still very much flavor of the month, and businesses face an increasing level of cyber threats. But what is sometimes overlooked is that these things aren't all about technology.
People are an important part of the equation too, driving change and reacting to events. We spoke to James Harrison, head of UK at Telstra, to find out more about why it's important to build a corporate culture that doesn't neglect the human angle.
Employees want better digital experiences, management want bigger profits
In an echo of another report we covered earlier this week, a new study from Ivanti finds that digital employee experience (DEX) has a major impact on employee satisfaction.
The research shows that 64 percent of employees believe their experience with technology impacts their morale, and that 49 percent are frustrated by their work-supplied tech.
Why organizations must move to a cloud-based infrastructure [Q&A]
The past couple of years have led to lots of new demands on IT and many businesses have turned to the cloud in order to meet them.
Whilst the initial assumption may have been that these changes would be temporary, much of the shift in working patterns looks like becoming permanent. We spoke to Alkira's CEO Amir Khan to find out more about what this means for businesses as they gear up for remote work on a long-term basis.
Why do development projects fail?
Why do development projects fail? And perhaps more importantly what do senior management need to understand about why they fail? Those are the questions that a new study from AI platform vFunction sets out to answer.
Based on a survey by Wakefield Research of 250 US software developers and architects, at a senior level within enterprises of 5,000 or more staff, it looks at the differences in goals, challenges and reasons for failure between business leaders and architects.
Partial automation: The key to easing fears and pushing digital transformation
Many enterprises trying to reach the highest levels of digital transformation are facing a problem: they aren’t adopting autonomous operations and artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps). While more than half (59 percent) of organizations consider themselves digital transformation adopters or even leaders, a mere 15 percent are implementing automated processes at the same level.
This gap is problematic for enterprises striving to be digital leaders. After all, part of digital transformation’s promise is using data to increase agility, maximize emerging opportunities, provide personalized experiences and, importantly, guarantee a business’s apps and digital services are continuously available.
