What to look for
The report, compiled from a survey of December 2015 673 IT companies in the US, UK and Canada, highlights a dozen trends that should affect the IT industry and the US economy in the the next year.
Among the macro trends, CompTIA predicted that technology policy will be a hot topic in the presidential election, companies seek more specialists develop technology internally, and businesses make technology issues and strategies discussed in all departments, not only in YOU.
As for technology trends, cloud services will continue to grow, according to the report. The safety analysis and software become increasingly important, also. As for trends, CompTIA states that because the customer is more knowledgeable about current technology, channel companies must change their marketing strategies according to the different needs of customers. Companies also need to stop focusing on the construction of cloud data centers as a way to differentiate themselves from their competitors and understand the beneficial partnerships with suppliers, the association recommended.
