Why Enterprises Are Rethinking Their Oracle Relationship and Cloud Strategy

Many IT teams are in the midst of evaluating their enterprise software roadmaps, particularly as vendors like Oracle shift more of their innovation focus away from the core systems that organizations have spent years customizing and building their business around.

When designing their long-range IT roadmaps, these IT teams must consider three key factors:

• the total cost of maintaining their current systems
• their ability to extend the lifespan of existing enterprise applications while they plan their next move and
• the intersection point when future enterprise software and infrastructure will be viable – and valuable – to deploy

To understand how IT teams are evaluating their options, Rimini Street conducted the 2019 Oracle Application Survey. More than 200 IT leaders and practitioners provided feedback about their relationship with Oracle, their satisfaction with the support, spend and impact Oracle provides, and their plans for the future.
