A lack of cash is stopping UK small and medium enterprises (SMEs) from embracing the latest technology, with 40 per cent of IT users questioned by Intel still using a fax machine on a daily basis.
The study found that over a third of IT managers have no plans to invest in laptops, tablets, or smartphones in the next 12 months, which Intel says is limiting productivity and stifling innovation.
“It’s clear that as SMEs tighten their purse strings, buying new technologies falls to the bottom of the list of priorities. Yet, it’s important that IT decision makers weigh the advantages, such as the increased efficiency and flexibility delivered by mobile devices, against the cost,” says Intel UK director Graham Palmer.
