“We are proud to be recognised as one of APAC’s most-used productivity applications and services,” said Ricky Kapur, Head of APAC, Zoom. “Zoom is constantly innovating with our diverse ecosystem of partners, including Okta, to provide organisations with solutions that empower their hybrid workforce. With employees wanting greater flexibility in where and how they work, we are committed to driving secure and seamless collaboration for employee engagement and overall company success.”
Rise of multi-cloud platforms: Being able to access workflows and productivity tools from any location, on any device has turned into a business imperative. In fact, cloud migration isn’t just increasing—it’s doubling, and complexifying, with organisations choosing to use multiple cloud platforms instead of putting all their cloud computing in one virtual basket. AWS remains the runaway favorite cloud platform globally, showing a 32% YoY growth last year and contributing to a total increase of 152% since 2018. Meanwhile, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is boasting an increase of 40% since 2020—a whopping 365% from where it ranked in 2018.
Continued investment in security: Firms are continuing to invest in security-related applications, with Netskope (a network security tool) now the fastest growing app worldwide by number of unique users and VMware’s Workspace ONE (an endpoint management tool) remaining high on the list.
