It contains quantitative data from 2018 and market forecasts for 2019–2023. It summarizes the major issues and impacts of cloud services on the IT industry. End-user views are included.

The study addresses the following questions:

• What is the current market value of cloud services in CEE?
• What are IDC's forecasts for spending on cloud services in CEE? What are the assumptions behind the forecasts? What impact did these assumptions have on IDC's market forecasts?
• What are the concerns and preferences of European end users regarding the delivery of services via cloud?

"New models of technology delivery may be attractive, but many companies, citing security concerns, want to maintain a conservative on-premises approach. Nevertheless, cloud is no longer the exclusive domain of pioneers and innovators. Today, nearly all businesses and most government entities will find a need to use cloud in some way." — Cloud Program Manager Petr Zajonc, IDC CEMA
