The Capgemini application’s Landscape Report 2014 within international organizations, captured by Connectikpeople.co.
When it comes to talk about applications within international organizations, it is obvious that, one
meets badly organized, overloaded and outdated applications landscape. But, henceforth, digital transformation
is required for competitive advantage (mobile, social, Big Data and Cloud
solutions), these shortcomings represent the bottlenecks.
As, a unique objective reference for organizations and professionals, when it
comes to tools and solutions to draw value-added in their daily activities,
Connectikpeople.co, has captured the new Capgemini survey which has securitized
this landscape.
Entitled ‘’Application
Landscape Report 2014’’, According to
this report over the last three years the number of IT decision makers who believe
their business has more applications than it needs has increased from just over
one-third (34 percent) to nearly one-half (48 percent). 37 percent believe the
majority of their applications are mission-critical. Nearly three-quarters (70
percent) believe at least one-fifth of their company’s applications share
similar functionality and could be consolidated, and a further 53 percent
believe one-fifth should be retired or replaced.
The study also revealed that 60 percent of senior IT decision makers
believe their departments’ most valuable contribution to the company is
introducing new
technologies.
Connectikpeople.co has also observed that, compared to Western Organizations, developing markets are benefiting from
their relatively fresh, young IT landscape. Countries like Finland and Norway
report below-average levels of understanding between business and IT (just 64
percent and 69 percent, respectively, believe the relationship is
“satisfactory”), an encouraging 92 percent of respondents in Brazil, India and
China report a satisfactory understanding between the two.
Meaning that, companies have to ensure
that, the applications landscape lines up with the business’ goals and
objectives.
