“ There has undoubtedly been an enormous spike in the use of cloud computing as a result of COVID-19 ”
— Thomas Dieringer , President , JAGGAER EMEA
computing is the ability to adapt to current market conditions by being agile and have the ability to up or downscale as the business requires . Organisations considering implementing a cloud-based system or upgrading will almost certainly be looking to do this as a priority now .”
As with any major disaster , Dieringer details that while short term digital strategies and transformation projects may be put on hold in order to focus on the prevention of COVID-19 , looking to the future Dieringer believes that “ companies will take time to take stock and develop new plans and strategies to begin the first tentative steps to recovery ,” and “ cloud computing will play an essential role in that recovery . For companies already adept at using cloud , they will look at additional ways of utilising it further . Those yet to embrace will undoubtedly implement the many cost savings , and ease of working it affords .”
