Gartner’s latest forecast report data shows global IT spending is projected to reach USD 3.74 trillion in 2019, an approx 0.6% growth from 2018.

The enterprise software market will experience the strongest growth in 2019, reaching $457 billion, up 9% from $419 billion in 2018 (see the below table). CIOs are continuing to rebalance their technology portfolios, shifting investments from on-premises to off-premises capabilities.

Table: Gartner’s July 2019 Global IT Spending Forecast (Billions of USD),

 2018 IT Spending 2018 Growth (%) 2019 IT Spending2019 Growth (%) 2020 IT Spending2020 Growth (%)
Data Center Systems 21015.7203-3.52082.8
Enterprise Software 41913.54579.050710.9
Devices 7125.9682-4.36880.8
IT Services 9936.71,0313.81,0885.5
Communications Services 1,380-0.11,365-1.01,3861.5
Overall IT3,7165.13,7400.63,8783.7

Speaking with Research Vice Presidents at Gartner, David Lovelock “Despite uncertainty fueled by recession rumors, Brexit, trade wars and tariffs, Gartner expects IT spending in 2019 remain flat. While there is great variation in growth rates at the country level, virtually all countries tracked by Gartner will see growth in 2019. Despite the ongoing tariff war, North America IT spending is forecast to grow 3.7% in 2019 and IT spending in China is expected to grow 2.8%.”

“Although an economic downturn is not the likely scenario for either 2019 or 2020, the risk is currently high enough to warrant preparation and planning. Technology general managers and product managers should plan out product mix and operational models that will optimally position product portfolios in a downturn should one occur,” said Mr. Lovelock.

Cloud increasingly become mainstream over the next few years and it will lead ever-greater portions of enterprise IT decisions, in particular system infrastructure. Prior to 2018, more of the cloud opportunity had been in application software and business process outsourcing. Over this forecast period it will expand to cover additional application software segments, including office suites, content services and collaboration services.

“Spending in old technology segments, like data center, will only continue to be dropped,” said Mr. Lovelock.

Globally, consumer spending as a percentage of total spend is dropping every year in every region due to saturation and commoditization, especially with PC, laptops and tablet devices. Cloud applications allow these devices to have an extended life, with less powerful equipment needed to run new software. This is why the devices market will experience the strongest decline in 2019, down 4.3% to $682 billion in 2019.

“There are hardly any ‘new’ buyers in the devices market, meaning that the market is now being driven by replacements and upgrades,” said Mr. Lovelock. “Add in their extended lifetimes along with the introduction of smart home technologies and IoT, and consumer technology spending only continues to drop.”
