Abstract

This IDC Survey Spotlight highlights results from the following question posed to 1,500 respondents with 1,000+ employees across 6 countries and several major industries, as part of IDC's 2018 and 2019 Managed CloudView Survey studies: If you are looking to switch vendors, which one or two vendors are you considering for managed cloud services? Please enter the names of up to two vendors you are considering. If you are not looking to switch vendors, please select "None." This IDC Survey Spotlight then assesses the impact of the top enterprise switching preferences for service providers (SPs) with their own public clouds (IaaS), which would result in the need for managed SPs to make a critical decision on their long-term strategic approach to cloud. This document should be used in conjunction with the analysis from Managed CloudView 2019: Executive Summary (IDC #US45601719, October 2019).
