| Tiivistelmä: | End-user computing, which enables users to develop their own applications, has potentially the greatest impact of any development in the computer field. But for many organizations it has been far less effective and more costly than anticipated. Out 17 companies examined, because of neglecting to predict or control end-user costs, 11 missed certain advantages that the six successful companies realized. All of these were proactive rather than reactive, when developing end-user policies and support teams, and they used soft rather than hard controls. Combination of a motivated technical team with aggressive policy making is needed for success. |
