Why Application Rationalization is Critical to Accelerate organizational growth
By:
Type: Talk
In a global survey, IDC surveyed 450 enterprises about their approaches, challenges , and roadmaps with Application Rationalization and Portfolio Management. Most businesses spend 70-80% of their IT budgets supporting aging, low-value, legacy applications, leaving little money to invest in innovative transformation initiatives. Almost half of the organizations admit their current capabilities to manage their application portfolio are suboptimal, while nearly all recognize issues in their app portfolio that drive waste and inefficiency, affecting the overall business. When done right, application rationalization can solve these challenges. Join us for a live webinar where George Mironescu, Associate Research Director with IDC Europe, will walk you through the study results and address the current market context. It is an opportunity to understand the challenges organizations face and get expert guidance on the most critical factors for successful application rationalization initiatives.
