Abstract

The idea that drives Cloud technology shows great opportunities that can be exploited by an organization. However, with such opportunities come some challenges and factors that have to be put into consideration. Knowing and understanding these factors make an organization better prepared for adopting the technology. A number of factors have been suspected to affect organization’s adoption of Cloud technology. The purpose of this chapter is to confirm which factors actually do affect adoption of the technology. Inspired by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and an extensive literature review, a working hypothesis of the list of factors that have potentials to affect Cloud technology adoption was developed. These factors were then assessed by a randomly selected sample of 47 working professionals in the United Kingdom through an online questionnaire. Analysis of the result shows that Security, Cost, Service Availability, Compliance and Perceived Usefulness are factors of concern that organizations would have to deeply consider before moving to the Cloud. It also shows that majority of professionals are already aware and substantially educated about cloud technology and believe they will find the technology easy to learn and use. They also recommend it to organizations.
