SaaS-based cloud services have introduced a plethora of new capabilities to small businesses related to HR, payments, accounting, payroll, marketing, customer relationship management (CRM) and much more. As these technologies become more affordable, small businesses are taking advantage.
LSA’s new Tech Adoption Index (TAI) is designed to measure the small business market’s shift to cloud-based services through a quantitative tracking study. The research will be conducted twice a year with a sample of 1,000 small businesses in each wave.
The data will help small business providers make strategic businesses decisions as it relates to product development, competitive differentiation and growth strategies.
