Key Market Issues
Kable's survey shows that a large proportion of Austrian enterprises favour on-premise deployments compared to hosted services. Enterprises with strict legislation and compliance regulations tend to choose on-site deployment as they require full control over confidential data and processes.

During the current economic uncertainty, enterprises' focus is very much on identifying additional revenue opportunities, whilst at the same time cutting costs to enhance profitability; which is evident from the survey where Austrian enterprises rate the objective of 'improve supplier relationships' at the lower end of the scale.

IT objectives related to 'using IT to support revenue growth' has relatively lower importance with Austrian enterprises, with only X% of enterprises identifying it as top priority.

Austrian enterprises rate the selection factors 'specific functionality expertise/depth' and 'price' to be the most important criteria, with average ratings of X on the scale of 1 to 4.
