The Enterprise Connect survey found that 75% of IT leaders said it\u2019s challenging, with some saying it\u2019s even overwhelming to manage disparate communications and collaboration apps within their company. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IT decision makers ranked the management of disparate communications and collaboration vendors (36%) as their biggest challenge.

We also found that 20% of IT respondents believe a top-down mandate from the C-suite would help reduce complexity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowledge workers agree, with 66% in favor of a single communications platform to reduce the hassle of app overload.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The biggest benefits of reducing app complexity<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s no surprise that increased productivity tops the list of anticipated benefits from reduced app complexity.
