NewtonX Surveyed 175 Top IT Professionals Across 10 Industries
In one week, NewtonX surveyed 175 senior IT decision makers, including both paid and unpaid users. The professionals spanned multiple fields — including software engineering, information security, and compliance — across a wide range of industries, such as tech, financial services, retail, CPG, media, and healthcare.
