Survey: Digital Transformation Challenged by Scalability, Lack of Resources, and Application Backlog
2018年1月30日 - 10:30PM
Appian (NASDAQ:APPN), a leading low-code and business process
management platform provider, today announced survey results from
IT and executive leadership about the current state of digital
transformation and projections for the next 12 months. The findings
show that despite optimism about digitizing enterprise
environments, organizations face significant challenges in meeting
business demand, achieving competitive differentiation, and driving
innovation.
The Digital Transformation Readiness Survey, sponsored by Appian
and conducted by DevOps.com, shows that organizations are excited
about their digital transformation prospects in the coming years.
When asked for the top areas companies are driving toward, data
shows:
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning (93 percent)
- Internet of Things (76 percent)
- Natural language processing (58 percent)
On the other hand, organizations feel understaffed and
overwhelmed when it comes to delivering the software applications
that will support the desired business transformations. Primary
obstacles to transformation readiness were identified as:
- Inability to support the future of work; 72
percent of respondents don't believe they'll be able to scale their
efforts to keep up with business requirements in the coming
years
- Pressure to fix issues quickly rather than fix them
right: 91 percent of organizations struggle with growing
technical debt that has accumulated over time in a myriad of
ways
- Shortage of skilled workers; 82 percent of
organizations can’t attract and retain the quality and quantity of
software engineers required
In the digital economy, organizations are under relentless
pressure to keep up with new customer expectations and fast-moving
digital trends. As organizations seek to transform with digital
technologies, low-code development presents a tremendous
opportunity to solve readiness deficiencies.
Issues such as application backlog present a significant
challenge for businesses dealing with time constraints and
increasing workloads. IT teams are so buried in yesterday’s work
that they barely have a chance to think about the challenges of
today and tomorrow. More than 61 percent of respondents are
burdened with more than 10 new applications or major feature
requests waiting on the backburner of their application backlog.
More than 1 in 5 respondents have a staggering 50 or more major
application development requests waiting to be fulfilled.
Low-code development platforms play an important role in helping
organizations address these pain points with simplicity. The Appian
Platform provides IT and business teams an easy way to translate
ideas into powerful software applications quickly, with minimal
technical debt. By accelerating the delivery of innovative business
capabilities and creating a more flexible IT infrastructure, Appian
provides a proven foundation for the execution of enterprise-wide
digital transformation strategies.
“Businesses lack the resources required to create
the unique applications they need,” said Matt Calkins,
CEO of Appian. "Low-code platforms fill that gap by simplifying
development and deployment. With Appian, organizations can rapidly
create powerful applications that allow business leaders to embrace
digital transformation rather than fear it.”
