I think a number of our IT companies have failed to invent a business model that creates a replacement revenue stream for the older methods of onsite servers etc.
Some are doing it but the problem that exists is that Cloud solutions are predominantly monthly based and lower amounts and therefore have very little incentive for IT companies or resellers to push.
More money can be made of traditional IT models.
Coming up with solutions that show value but also have revenue for resellers is a key driver to changing some of this.
The other area is integration of the cloud and mobile solutions. This is not done well at the moment as IT firms traditionally have Network people and integration requires developers.
