▪ As collaboration moves from on-prem to the cloud, many organizations struggle with moving years of on-prem infrastructure, customizations, and data to the cloud.

▪ Before this study, there had been no accurate data as to how many customers are actively pursuing hybrid solutions as a strategy, versus simply displacing their on-prem environments with the cloud.

▪ Additionally, there had been no accurate data identifying the gaps between existing on-prem deployments and SharePoint Online, and how many companies are impacted by these gaps.

▪ Having clear data helps us better understand why some companies are not adopting the cloud version of SharePoint, or are less engaged than with the on-prem version of the product.
