Read this article to learn how IT Ops leaders are planning to use agents to boost productivity and streamline operations.

IDC predicts agentic AI will command over 26% of global IT spend, hitting $1.3 trillion in 2029. How do IT Ops teams prepare for the reality of agentic systems being embedded across workflows, interfaces, and enterprise platforms?

We went straight to the source—IT Ops leaders—to learn how they’re tackling agentic AI. Our report, The Rise of Agentic AI: A New Era for IT Operations reveals the plans, budgets, and the obstacles IT leaders face while implementing multiagent systems.

200+ IT leaders from companies with at least 1,000 employees took the survey. Interestingly, an overwhelming 93% have moved beyond planning, with agentic AI in pilots or production. Here is a snapshot of three leading insights you’ll find in the report:

2. What are the biggest roadblocks to implementing agentic AI?

Our survey finds data security and privacy (72%), integration complexity (61%), and skepticism toward AI decision-making (41%) as the leading worries around autonomous systems. Success with agentic AI will need IT Ops teams to deliver quality data, connect processes and systems, and embed transparency into AI decisions.

3. Which functions will benefit the most from multiagent systems?

Agentic AI is set to transform all aspects of infrastructure and operations (I&O) management in the next few years. The top functions to benefit from agentic AI will be performance monitoring/observability (75%), security threat detection and remediation (74%), and incident detection and response (58%).
