Palo Alto, CA – August 23, 2010 – The Radicati Group, Inc.’s latest study, “Corporate IT Survey – Messaging and Collaboration, 2010-2011” provides an in-depth look at corporate IT deployment attitudes, usage, and procurement plans of 100 organizations worldwide, representing over 300,000 email users.

Despite the economic slowdown, 47% of organizations surveyed indicated that their IT budgets have increased from 2009 to 2010. However, “Reducing IT costs” was the top concern for most organizations across all business sizes. “Moving to hosted/cloud based services” and “Security” were the second and third top IT concerns.

Most of organizations (48%) felt that the amount of spam that reaches their networks has remained fairly constant over the past 12 months, whereas 39% of organizations reported an increase in the amount of spam and 13% actually reported a decrease.

Social networking was very popular with all organizations, with 35% of organizations indicating they have a company-sanctioned social networking site for their entire organization to use.
