Network Spending Priorities For Second-Half 2023
Networkworld, Monday, June 12,2023
Enterprises hope to invest in security, operational stability, and better application-delivery performance using technologies that include SD-WAN and AI.
OK, it's not been a great first half for many companies, from end users to vendors and providers. The good news is that users sort of believe that many of the economic and political issues that have contributed to the problem have been at least held at bay.
There's still uncertainty in the tech world, but it's a bit less than before. Most of the companies I've talked with this year have stayed guardedly optimistic that things were going to improve. Over the last month, of the nearly 200 companies I've emailed with, only 21 were 'pessimistic' about the outlook for their tech spending in the second half.
