classic IT really hates things outside their cotrol.

The author of that article has a very biased view tho'. An organisation that finds a lot of shadow IT happening probably ought to replace the head of the IT department since he or she is clearly not delivering what the users actually need.
From the link: Shadow IT can act as a brake on the adoption of new technology
LOL!!!
- throwaway7645 9y agoIT should exist to help the domain users, but after a point they get too big and start to dictate what gets used even if nobody wants it. Like choosing the data analytics technology for the data analytics team when it is what they don't want/need. So then your data analytics team eventually goes outside budget to get what they actually wanted and you have two products. Very dysfunctional and common.
