ISG Launches Study on Digital Workplace Services and Remote Work During PandemicSTAMFORD, Conn., June 05, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining the market for digital workplace services, including technologies used to support remote work during the global COVID-19 pandemic. The study results will be published in a comprehensive ISG Provider Lens™ report, called Digital Workplace of the Future — Services & Solutions 2020, scheduled to be released in October. The report will cover the technology ecosystem that enables enterprise employees to access their work profiles, stored data and applications securely—from anywhere, at any time, on any device or platform. Digital workplace products and services aim to improve worker productivity by enabling them to connect and collaborate with fellow employees efficiently. The new report will explore the changes in the digital workplace market as more and more companies embrace remote work, particularly in response to the pandemic, said Jan Erik Aase, director and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “As enterprises across the globe grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic, they need to enable remote working at scale for a majority of their workforce,” he said. “This requires employees to have seamless access to their workplace apps in the device they carry, whether personal or company-owned.” Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the report to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm’s buy-side clients. ISG has distributed surveys to more than 225 digital workplace services providers. Working in collaboration with ISG’s global advisors, the research team will produce six quadrants representing the services and products the typical enterprise client is buying in the digital workplace space, based on ISG’s experience working with its clients. The six quadrants that will be covered are:
An archetype report also will be published as part of this study. This report, unique to ISG, is the study of typical buyer types of digital workplace services as observed by ISG advisors. A list of identified providers and vendors and further details on the study are available in this digital brochure. Companies not listed as digital workplace providers can contact ISG and ask to be included in the study.
