- Eighty-four percent said it was easier to maintain compliance once they moved to the cloud.
- Sixty percent of IT professionals who haven’t migrated to the cloud said maintaining compliance was the hardest part of switching to cloud computing.
- Seventy percent of IT professionals, who are planning to complete a cloud migration, said they intend to use third-party tools and services.
- Medicare and Medicaid facilities as well as hospitals were most likely to switch to the cloud.
- Physician’s offices and dental practices were least likely to adopt cloud computing.
