Abstract
This IDC study provides a detailed overview of IT spending
trends and forecasts for 17 vertical markets (or sectors) and
10 product and service categories in Romania. The study features
overviews of key industry developments, industry challenges, and vertical-specific IT
drivers and trends and includes tables detailing IT spending by
vertical market for each product and service type for the
20082013 period. Analysis is based on continuous research, the monitoring
of user IT spending and emerging purchasing patterns, and supply-
and demand-side research.
"The international economic downturn has sent the Romanian
IT market into recession. Several segments including hardware and
off-the-shelf software were hit severely. On the other hand,
segments like business analytics, software-as-a-service, collaboration, and remote meeting solutions
are expected to flourish. Hardware spending, however, drives the Romanian
IT market, which means it will experience a downturn over
the coming years, with spending not returning to 2008 levels
until 2012." Research Manager Madalin Lazarescu, IDC Romania
