16 Julio 2024 - 5:01AM
JumpCloud Inc. today released the results of its Q3 2024 SME IT
Trends Report, “Detours Ahead: How IT Navigates an Evolving World.”
The seventh edition of the report provides new insights around the
challenges and opportunities facing IT teams at small and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It covers topics such as:
- The growing threat of shadow IT and AI
- How teams manage complicated device and IT environments
- The relationship between IT and managed service providers
(MSPs)
- IT professionals' biggest fears and wants
JumpCloud commissions this survey twice a year to stay on top of
the latest challenges, trends, and experiences of IT professionals.
This edition surveyed IT teams from the U.S. and the U.K.
“IT teams are dealing with many obstacles. They face uncertainty
about economic conditions and elections. There are growing security
threats, complex tech stacks, and device varieties. Despite this
and more, IT admins are resilient and resourceful,” said Greg
Keller, co-founder and chief technology officer, JumpCloud. “What’s
keeping them up at night is what they can’t see — 84% of IT admins
worry about shadow IT. To help combat the security holes shadow IT
creates, IT needs to deploy tools to help spot rogue apps. This
will give IT teams the control and visibility they need to keep
organizations safe.”
