In helping to realise cost savings, decision makers are looking to transform organisations to be more productive and efficient. Insights from data play an important role in streamlining business processes and providing tools for workers to be more productive. The key themes for many organisations are cost savings through greater use of data and automation. Improving customer experience has been identified as a top driver for cloud computing, with decision makers recognising its impact of the insights it yields on both the top and bottom line (i.e. customer acquisition, management, and retention).

5 OPEX spending higher than CAPEX, organisations more likely to have an OPEX-driven future Q: What percentage of your organisation's total annual ICT budget is spent on Telsyte expects the ratio to shift towards OPEX as more suppliers move to as-a-service delivery models. CAPEX 34% OPEX 66% However, if the transformation and innovation spend level is sustained, Telsyte believes it will be the underlying driver of a hybrid architecture in the medium term in large organisations. In addition, many IT decision makers continue to exhibit preference for outright purchase and ownership of technology. Telsyte has seen this trend in growth areas such as the Internet of things investments, which start on-premises but burst into the cloud as the workload demand increases rapidly.
