Findings include:

  • Thirty-five percent of surveyed companies are in the process of actually migrating to Vista, up from 12 percent last February.
  • Close to 50 percent of surveyed companies that are evaluating or using Vista say it’s performing better than they expected on key features, including security and search and organization capabilities.
