Masergy,
a leading provider of managed SD-WAN, cloud communications and managed
security solutions, today released results from their new study on
digital transformation (DX) market trends.

The 2019
Digital Transformation Market Trends Report
, facilitated by
independent research firm Webtorials, surveyed IT professionals from
companies both large and small across 35 different countries. By
surveying those professionals in a variety of industries, the report
sheds light on the mindsets and technology investments needed to
catalyze IT evolution in enterprise technology environments.

Key findings from the survey include:

  • 4 out of 5 IT professionals say DX is imperative for survival, but 64%
    need significant help from outside partners.
  • The top investments in technology to support digital transformation
    are focused on migrating to the cloud and IT security, plus a
    significant emphasis on groundbreaking technologies like artificial
    intelligence, big data, and IoT.
  • 57% of respondents said their preferred partners for transformation
    are smaller, agile service providers.
  • The primary benefits expected from Digital Transformation initiatives
    are led by enhancing the customer experience, remaining competitive in
    the industry, and streamlining business processes.
  • The biggest hurdles to Digital Transformation initiatives are seen as
    commitment of budget and top-down support.

“Executives recognize that digital transformation is largely dependent
upon innovative technology services and outside partners that deliver on
competitive IT agility,” said James Parker. “As a leader in managed
