"The worldwide downturn in IT hardware sales was exacerbated in Egypt by the poor state of the country's economy. Financial constraints have transformed IT purchasing behavioral patterns and IT managers are no longer following tried and tested conventions. They are being forced to find cost-effective solutions to IT problems regardless of past beliefs about best-of-breed technology. Vendors and their partners must now satisfy a new set of requirements and provide an answer within any budget." - Mediha Gramos, Senior Analyst, IDC CEMA
