How many business apps are too many?

Line-of-business (LOB) applications have changed the way people work, and in many ways these business apps have improved productivity, enabled better engagement with customers, and contributed to a more organized workflow—but at what cost? And how much of a good thing is too much?

Recent surveys have found that many departments run on dozens of different applications, and companies can end up relying on hundreds of apps as a result. This smorgasbord of software can introduce new security vulnerabilities and require ongoing maintenance, such as regular updates. The increasingly tangled web of business apps can also create challenges in compatibility and stability.

Keeping tabs on every application on every endpoint is just one example of the busywork that can (and likely should) be organized and outsourced to a team dedicated to tackling these kinds of issues. If you would like better visibility into your business technology blind spots, contact us today!
