Storage Technology Adoption, Projects Priorities and Products/Features Needs in US and Europe

Questions asked by Coldago

Coldago Research, a market research and analysis firm, ran an end-users survey (link not anymore available) in January 2020 to learn about storage related IT projects needs, collect users perceptions and understand their technologies adoptions.

By end-users we mean companies that pick, deploy and used IT products to support their business activity and mission.

The survey considered 2 populations – US and Europe – with respectively 1,123 US companies and 560 European ones. For Europe, it was limited study to UK, Germany and France. Each of these countries represents approximately 1/3 of the total European users.

Users belong to the enterprise and SMB segments with 50% from each segment. Companies span several verticals in term of industries and use-cases.

The study addresses technology adoption, projects priorities and products/features needs for a total of 20 questions.

Each graphic is sorted by descending order for US.
