2010 IT Predictions and 2009 Results

It’s no surprise that the down economy had a serious impact on accounting firm technology spending as many firms hunkered down this year and only invested in those technologies and updates that were absolutely necessary or those that had a clearly obvious return on the investment. With the increase in IT activity we are experiencing at year end, there is invigorated hope that the 2010 economic outlook will be much more positive, but I believe most cash-strapped firms will wait until after busy season to evaluate next-generation products and technologies that other firms were successful with during the upcoming busy season. With that in mind, I present my In Firm 2010 IT predictions, including updates on those forecasts made at the end of 2009.
