But…

How mature are they concerning cloud?

Cisco and IDC can help you understand your cloud maturity level.

A brief context-

According to an IDC study, there are five maturity levels of cloud adoption and, even though cloud is being highly adopted with more than 80% of worldwide organizations adopting multiple clouds, only as little as 3% of organizations have an optimized cloud strategy. When organizations achieve an optimized cloud strategy though, there are certain key performance indicators that are associated with better business outcomes. Some of the KPI’s that IDC found are, a 77% of IT cost reduction, 72% ability to meet SLA’s, 200% of strategic allocation of IT budget and even 11% of revenue growth.

How does Cisco and IDC have you covered?

1.  We can benchmark your organization according to IDC’s cloud maturity levels. Cisco, in collaboration with IDC, have developed a cloud assessment framework that can help you easily benchmark your organization and, find out how your competitors are doing with cloud.
