Information Technology (IT) Trend Report for 2009
Posted by Tara Donnelly on Fri, Mar 06, 2009 @ 03:32 PM
A number of software, hardware, and IT service companies have recently been coming to TSL and asking about trends for 2009; and more importantly, if the budgetary cut backs due to the recession will be lifted anytime soon. What we found were some very exciting and refreshing statistics that should take a big weight off anyone's shoulders (that work in IT of course). With all of these stats, we thought the best way to share our new found data was through our first ever newsletter directed to the IT community. Here are some highlights from this newsletter:
- IT purchases are expected to grow to $616 billion in 2010 for a 7.5% increase from 2009 sales.
- Software spending is expected to grow 3.4% in 2009
- Gartner recommends the top 10 ways to save and do more with less
- SaaS is growing at a rate of 40% annually
- Highlights on the top trends for IT spending (where the money is being spent)
This newsletter is NO COST and available to any interested parties.
