'ICT developments in cloud computing, software as a service, ubiquitous mobility, and Web 2.0 are fundamentally transforming the way enterprises do business,' the group explained.
Furthermore, IDC predicted that companies will begin to realise the importance of deploying technology to boost efficiency, facilitate growth and safeguard against future crises.
John Gantz, IDC chief research officer and senior vice president, added that firms which start to adopt new technologies in the early stages of the recession will develop a competitive edge over their rivals.
