A survey conducted by research group IBRS in conjunction with iTWire in July 2006, received 253 reponses, including 38% IT executives, 29% CEOs (all from small companies) and 7% systems admistrators. The survey covered organisations of all sizes; 59% had <99 desktops, 17% had 99-1000 desktops and 24% 1000+. When asked when they intend to migrate to Vista; 9% said they will adopt it short after it is released; 10% after service pack 1; 16% as new hardware is installed, 12% only when XP expires and 38% said they do not have any plans to adopt Vista. Only 17% of the respondents had an agreed strategy; 23% had talked about it but not agreed to a strategy and 61% had not even looked at the issue. According to the IBRS report, which will be released this week, corporations are aware of Windows Vista, however with less than 20% or survey respondents having an agreed to strategy for dealing with the migration, Vista is not a high priority. {moscomment} |
