Application Portfolio Assessment: Ask Your Users How They Really Feel 

Wednesday, December 11, at 1:00 PM ET | 10:00 AM PT

Webinar Summary

Assessing the health of your application portfolio has never been more important, with 82% of organizations scoring only "Average" on app satisfaction, according to Info-Tech’s CIO Business Vision survey. Taking a clear-eyed look at that portfolio and where adjustments are needed will pay off with more productive people, enhanced trust, and greater user satisfaction. 

Join this dynamic webinar as we discuss how Info-Tech’s Application Portfolio Assessment (APA) diagnostic can help you find actionable insights into portfolio performance, including: 

  • The four big questions to ask your users about their application experience.
  • Drawing a line from insights to actionable results to improved user satisfaction.
  • Data-driven insights into application portfolio health – and how these can guide your decisions to retire, upgrade, retrain on, or maintain applications.
