Three out of five IT professionals rank data privacy as the key priority for their firm this year, with the same number looking for ways to improve their backup processes to protect company data.
Despite the tough economic conditions of recent years, fewer respondents were concerned about cost-cutting, with just over half citing spending reductions as a priority for the IT department. Application performance was on the wish list for a third of V3 readers.
Storage is clearly still an area firms feel is worth investing in, with 41 percent of IT professionals saying they plan to spend more or the same as last year on storage during 2014. Data growth, regulatory compliance and cloud computing are key drivers for businesses’ storage budget plans.
The findings are from exclusive V3 reader research, which we will be unveiling during our latest web seminar at 11am today, 30 January.
Join V3, HP, estate agent Savills and analyst Quocirca to hear about the biggest storage challenges facing IT managers this year, and the measures your firm can take to address these problems. The expert panel will be offering their advice on the best steps for guaranteed data protection, how virtualisation impacts storage requirements and the potential business benefits of newer converged storage systems.
