Over 29% of IT leaders found that moving projects from on-premises to the cloud was more expensive than expected, while 65% said it was financially predictable.

The cost-benefit analysis of cloud versus on-premises infrastructure varies greatly depending on the organization.

Instead of a complete cloud approach, IT leaders would recommend a mix of 'mostly cloud and some on-premises' to the CIO. "Hybrid cloud infrastructures offer the best of both worlds across both public and private models. Organizations can optimize costs, seamlessly integrate systems, and experiment with innovation projects without compromising on agility or flexibility," said Calvin Hsu, VP of Product Management at Citrix.

Cloud technology key to preventing cybersecurity incidents.

Security is a top priority, and 93% of IT leaders agreed that cloud technologies can help prevent cybersecurity incidents.

With benefits to both cloud and on-premises infrastructures, 50% of these IT leaders currently have projects in both cloud and on-premises.
