With more than 15 years in the IT
industry, Zuri Ozeomachukwu Njoku
has worked closely with startups, growing
companies, and large enterprises to
strengthen their digital foundations.
Through her experiences in cloud,
networking, and system support, Zuri has
identified several recurring challenges
that hold businesses back. Here are the
five most common issues she encounters,
and why addressing them matters.

1. Outdated and
Rigid Systems
Many businesses still rely on aging
infrastructure that slows down
operations and limits future expansion.
When systems cannot scale or integrate
with new tools, teams end up spending
more time fixing problems than
delivering value. Modernizing
infrastructure is not just about
upgrading hardware, it’s about enabling
long-term agility.

2. Rising Cybersecurity

continue to operate with basic or outdated security practices. Weak
authentication, unpatched software, and lack of monitoring leave
systems exposed. Implementing strong security measures, continuous
audits, and staff awareness programs is essential for protecting
sensitive data.

3. Tools That Don’t
Work Together
It’s common for companies to add new
software as they grow, but without
proper planning, tools end up
disconnected. This leads to duplicated
data, inconsistent workflows, and
unnecessary delays. A well-integrated
tech stack ensures that information
flows smoothly across departments.

4. Unclear Cloud
Strategy
While cloud adoption is increasing, many
businesses jump in without a defined
roadmap. Poor planning can lead to
unexpected costs, performance issues, or
compliance challenges. A successful cloud
approach requires evaluating which systems
belong in the cloud, how to migrate securely,
and how to manage resources effectively
afterward.

when teams aren’t trained to use it
properly. Many organizations invest in
powerful tools but overlook the
importance of user education. Strong
leadership, ongoing training, and clear
guidance help employees work
confidently and maximize the value of IT
investments.
