Dresner Advisory Services Publishes 2019 IT Analytics Market Study


NASHUA, N.H., July 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dresner Advisory Services today published the 2019 IT Analytics Market Study, part of its Wisdom of Crowds® series of research. The IT function continually generates a substantial amount of operations data from multiple systems including physical data centers, hardware systems, activity within the IT support team, and application activity.  IT Analytics is the monitoring and management of this critical information that surrounds the operations of the information technology (IT) function. 

The second edition IT Analytics Market Study examines usage, trends, and the importance of four main areas of IT analytics, including Operations Management, Resource Management, Resource Planning, and Systems Development.

According to the study, almost all respondents score IT Analytics as “critical” (31 percent), “very important” (43 percent), or “important” (18 percent). Across industries, there is similar consensus, with the exception of Retail. Thirty-eight percent of respondents indicated use of third-party analytics designed for IT applications.

“In 2019 Dresner Advisory began tracking the rates of success across all types of BI initiatives to produce a BI Success Index®, defined as the percentage of successful BI initiatives,” said Chris von Simson, research director at Dresner Advisory Services. “Our findings indicate organizations that engage with IT Analytics demonstrate a high rate of success with their BI initiatives, providing significant encouragement to those considering deploying IT analytical applications.”

“The success of the IT function remains an important topic for organizations, and using data-driven insights to manage performance is becoming increasingly critical as CIOs begin to view themselves as ‘CEOs of IT’,” said Howard Dresner, founder and chief research officer at Dresner Advisory Services.

Wisdom of Crowds® research is based on data collected on usage and deployment trends, products, and vendors. Users in all roles and throughout all industries contributed to provide a complete view of realities, plans, and perceptions of the market.  To purchase a copy of the 2019 IT Analytics Market Study, visit www.itanalytics.report.
