The Business Productivity Tool Every CIO Must Consider

November 5, 2013

Productivity is crucial to the health and success of any organization, which is why smart executives relentlessly strive to improve processes and the productivity of their employees.

Productivity drives growth, and growth is always on top of every company’s agenda.

Technology can make a huge difference when it comes to improving productivity and delivering results. Utilizing the right technology and tools can help companies boost productivity and bring operation efficiency to a new level.

There are a wide range of innovative technologies for enterprise CIOs to consider. Among the various options, CIOs have prioritized three categories of technology tools critical to their companies, according to a Gartner’s 2013 Global CIO Survey: business intelligence, mobile technologies and cloud computing.

Out of these three, cloud computing– especially cloud Business Productivity Platform— stands out for the extraordinary, productivity-enhancing advantages it offers to companies, including easier data sharing across the organization, DIY forms and reports, and faster rollout of web and mobile applications, just to name a few. Furthermore, it serves as the foundation on which companies can expand and explore business intelligence and mobility.
