“…If a user feels at risk, they would tend to choose a credible supplier. Bharadwaj and Lal (2012) found that vendor credibility has a positive influence on adoption of cloud computing through a case study (Bharadwaj & Lal, 2012). Furthermore, Heart (2010) found that vendor credibility has a positive impact on SaaS adoption intention and a negative impact on perceived risk (Heart, 2010).…”

Purpose: In order to explain and predict the adoption of personal cloud storage, this study explores the critical factors involved in the adoption of personal cloud storage and empirically validates their relationships to a user's intentions.Design/methodology/approach: Based on technology acceptance model (TAM), network externality, trust, and an interview survey, this study proposes a personal cloud storage adoption model. We conducted an empirical analysis by structural equation modeling based on survey data obtained with a questionnaire. Findings:Among the adoption factors we identified, network externality has the salient influence on a user's adoption intention, followed by perceived usefulness, individual innovation, perceived trust, perceived ease of use, and subjective norms. Cloud storage characteristics are the most important indirect factors, followed by awareness to personal cloud storage and perceived risk. However, although perceived risk is regarded as an important factor by other cloud computing researchers, we found that it has no significant influence. Also, subjective norms have no significant influence on perceived usefulness. This indicates that users are rational when they choose whether to adopt personal cloud storage. Research limitations:This study ignores time and cost factors that might affect a user's intention to adopt personal cloud storage.Practical implications: Our findings might be helpful in designing and developing personal cloud storage products, and helpful to regulators crafting policies. Originality/value:This study is one of the first research efforts that discuss Chinese users' personal cloud storage adoption, which should help to further the understanding of personal cloud adoption behavior among Chinese users.

“…13,14 Studies are available that have investigated the factors influencing the successful adoption of cloud technology in the health sector 12,[15][16][17] as well as in other sectors. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] Figure 1 shows that while there has been a significant increase in published articles on cloud technology adoption in the non-health sector, overall, there is a dearth of articles on the health sector.…”

Cloud technology has brought great benefits to the health industry, including enabling improvement in the quality of services. The objective of this review study is to investigate the reported factors affecting the adoption of cloud in the health sector by comparing studies in the health and non-health sectors. This article is a systematized review of studies conducted in 2018. From 541 articles, 47 final articles were selected and classified into two categories: health and non-health studies; conclusions were drawn from the two sectors by comparing their effective factors. Based on the results of this review, the factors were categorized as technological, organizational, environmental, and individual. The results of this review study could be a beneficial guide to the health empirical research on cloud adoption. Individual domains have not been examined in health sector studies. Since the process of adoption of new technologies in organizations is time-consuming, due to the lack of managerial knowledge about the efficient factors, recognition of these factors by decision-makers while planning for cloud adoption becomes of great importance. The findings of this review study aim to help health decision-makers by increasing their awareness of the cloud and of the factors that impact decisions at both the organizational and individual levels.

“…Therefore, firms in the same industry tend to become homologous over time as customer, competitive, and other stakeholders' pressures influence them to copy other leaders in the same industry (Oliveira & Martins, 2011). Some recent studies have used INT for innovation adoption (Baptista, 2009;Bharadwaj & Lal, 2012;Hedman & Borell, 2004). Other studies have also combined the TOE framework with the INT (Soares-Aguiar & Palma-dos-Reis, 2008; Gibbs & Kraemer, 2004) and the DOI with INT (Bharati & Chaudhury, 2006).…”
