SYDNEY--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The acceleration of digital transformations and cloud implementations by Australian companies and government agencies is expanding the country’s Microsoft cloud ecosystem, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm. The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Microsoft Cloud Ecosystem report for Australia finds that organizations’ cloud strategies are evolving quickly, shaped by concerns about cloud costs, geopolitical instability and a growing risk of cyberattacks. In turn, the market for Microsoft cloud-related services is also evolving. Adoption of Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365 is especially strong, with enterprises increasingly focused on building applications correctly as they migrate to the cloud. “Australian companies are cautious about technology, seeking a strong return on investment,” said Ben Rossiter, ISG technology modernization lead in Australia. “They are partnering with providers for the best possible implementations.” Many Australian organizations are still catching up with dramatic changes in employee and customer expectations that accelerated with the COVID-19 pandemic, ISG says. Service providers are helping them deploy the right devices, network security and collaboration tools to keep remote workers happy, safe and productive.
