CRM Necessary but Messy
Customer relationship management systems are one of the most widely adopted categories of enterprise applications. But investing in a new CRM can be a messy business. As a core system, a CRM needs to interact with data across the entire business. Business processes should change to match the new capabilities. Hidden or unexpected costs can quickly add up, and missteps can result in a major setback, or worse, project failure. This Research Byte summarizes our full report on CRM Adoption Trends and Customer Experience.

Digital talent to drive new wave of business transformation
Enterprises and IT service providers need to revisit their talent strategy and prioritize digital skills. The accelerated pace of digital transformation and a hybrid working environment have put a new emphasis on reskilling and upskilling the existing workforce. IT service providers are seeing 30% growth in deals involving digital technology like cloud and cybersecurity, and they have made significant investments in recruiting new talent, particularly in nearshore environments, closer to where the work originates. All of this pressure on an already thin talent pool requires planning, and perhaps a good partner. These emerging trends are covered in Avasant’s Digital Talent Capability 2021 RadarViewTM.

Enabling Multi-Cloud Optimization, Innovation and Scale through FinOps in Partnership with HCL (Canada)
In today’s cloud-first world, businesses are struggling to catch up to the variable nature of cloud spending. While Multi-Cloud —with its scalability and flexibility—is a great enabler of innovation and digital transformation – it brings in a whole new set of management challenges. Operational teams can procure new cloud services without visibility into services already underutilized. Or they can forget to take down services when they are no longer needed. As a result, cloud spending can spiral out of control, and organizations can fail to realize the cost savings promised from the cloud model.
