Description

This IDC Market Perspective presents a strategic framework and road map to guide organizations in identifying and prioritizing high-impact agentic AI use cases. As enterprises evolve from generative AI to agentic AI, the focus shifts from productivity to innovation-driven business model transformation. IDC's Agentic Innovation Framework helps align innovation intent, strategic value, and technological readiness to deliver measurable outcomes. With the majority of organizations already testing or investing in agentic AI, success will depend on embedding trust, governance, and human oversight into autonomous systems. By combining agentic capabilities with human judgment, enterprises can unlock new opportunities for growth, resilience, and competitive advantage."Enterprises need clear criteria to translate agentic AI potential into measurable outcomes. IDC's framework provides that structure, linking innovation intent and strategic value, with AI capabilities and organizational feasibility. Technology vendors play a pivotal role by guiding clients through this evaluation process, ensuring that agentic investments are trustworthy, scalable, and aligned with long-term transformation goals." — Tony Olvet, research group VP, Worldwide C-suite and Digital Business, IDC

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
