It’s that time again! Last year, we carried out our very first State of SharePoint and Office 365 Development Survey to discover how IT professionals are working with SharePoint and Office 365. If you keep up with our blog or follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn, you may be aware that we opened this year’s survey in September. Aiming for further insight into how individuals and organizations are customizing their SharePoint and Office 365 environments, the 2016 State of SharePoint and Office 365 Development Survey provides us with a fantastic opportunity to see what’s changed over the course of the year.
First off, we’d like to say a big thank you to all those that took the time to contribute to the 2016 survey. We had a brilliant response, with over 1,000 people answering questions about their SharePoint and Office 365 experience and social habits, their development approaches, security measures and how they tackle customizations. From IT professionals and CIOs to developers and architects, participants gave us a detailed insight into the variety of different environments people have in their organizations as well as the external tools they use.
The results of the 2016 State of SharePoint and Office 365 Development Survey will be announced on the 16th November at The European SharePoint Conference in Vienna. For everyone that took part, you will be receiving your exclusive digital copy of the report on the day of its release – straight to your inbox. If you didn’t take part, you can grab a copy by signing up here. As well as the final report, we’ll be sharing the results in a series of upcoming blog posts and infographics – so be sure to check out our blog over the coming weeks. In the meantime, here’s a teaser of some of the statistics we’ve found out while looking at the data…
As a thank you to everyone that took part and is helping us paint a picture of the SharePoint and Office 365 community, we had a number of prizes on offer.
We’d like to thank our friends at The European SharePoint Europe, who have kindly included a three-day pass to the ESPC 2016 as one of the survey raffle prizes. The event is taking place in Vienna on the 14th November, and one lucky survey participant already has their ticket secured, worth $1375!
So without further ado, it’s time to announce all of the winners of our survey raffle competition. Again, a big thank you to all those who gave their time to fill out the survey—we hope you all enjoy your prizes!
