I'm intrigued by the results that came out. I would have thought that folks would be more ready to leverage startups for things like security scans / compliance scans / code scanning, as opposed to IAM, ZTNA and the like that
- have time-critical / mission-critical impacts if they fail and thus require a more mature support organization behind them (not saying that startups can't offer good support, but it can be overwhelming
- have a lot of "ecosystem" ties into a wider security mesh architecture where you typically require a broad but mostly single-vendor stack of products (particularly for ZTNA in this list).

Moving from an on-premise ERP solution to a cloud ERP solution(SaaS) represents a radical change especially with the ongoing 'support' and 'governance' models required for continuous success. We are very interested in hearing from other companies that have made this transition, and the lessons learned in structuring ongoing support.
