| | November 20204EditorialAccording to recent surveys and developments, Indian small and medium enterprises (SME) are likely to add USD 158 to USD 216 billion to the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in the next four years riding on the back of digitalization of their businesses, said a Cisco study. The data retrieved from more than 1,400 SMEs in 14 markets in APAC region to assess challenges and opportunities they face in their digital transformation journey in the post-Covid world showed that shortage of digital skills and talent, lack of enabling technologies, and lack of commitment or budget from management were the top three digital challenges for Indian SMEs. Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) typically have very limited resources to invest in new technologies. Every IT investment made should be preceded by adequate consideration on how to derive the greatest long-term value and make the most of their tech adoption to leapfrog the competition. More so, long before people started working from home, collaboration technology was an absolute necessity in the modern SMB workplace. Now then, today's digital business environment calls for integrated communications tools that enable a seamless collaboration experience--both within and well beyond the confines of the office--to drive productivity gains, improve workflows and reduce operational costs.Imagine having richer visibility and real-time management of your IT assets across the entire network, all under a single pane of glass.
