South African SMEs Embrace No-IT Foundations

South African SMEs are increasingly adopting 'no-IT' technology foundations, according to industry surveys and security reports in early 2026. Sage found 73% invested in AI last year and 76% plan further investment, yet only 47% use AI for revenue; Checkpoint reported 2,864 weekly cyberattacks per organisation in January 2026. The shift emphasizes integrated, performant, secure, and simple ecosystems to enable AI and reduce downtime.
