The Rise of Cloud Marketplaces
As the office print industry looks to recover and remain relevant in the cloud-centric, post-pandemic world, manufacturers, ISVs and channel partners will need to participate in the cloud marketplace ecosystem. To advance digital transformation in the print sector and enable vendors to capitalise on the wider cloud market opportunity, OEMs must strategically collaborate and partner with hyperscale provider marketplaces such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The print industry must acknowledge the power of platforms that digitally link business buyers and sellers as a disruptor to their core business.
This report is based on 202 interviews with IT buyers in the UK and US, conducted in June 2021.
Smart Buildings and IoT: Opportunities in the connected workplace
Quocirca’s Smart Buildings and IoT Study analyses how IoT-enabled smart buildings are presenting new opportunities for managed service providers (MSPs) in the post-pandemic workplace.
The report is based on a survey amongst 260 IT decision makers in the UK, France, Germany and the US in May 2021. Respondents represented companies with 500 or more employees, and all had decision-making responsibility within their organisations for IT purchasing decisions and IoT.

This report includes comparisons with the previous three surveys, the last of which was conducted in May 2020.
