Introduction: The challenge of digital adoption in digital transformation
Digital transformation is redefining the way businesses operate, but its success rests on one essential pillar: digital adoption. How can we ensure that employees fully master digital tools? Digital Adoption Platforms (DAPs) are the key to meeting this challenge, ensuring a smooth and sustainable transition to digital.
This pillar page explores digital adoption in depth, its strategic importance, its functionalities and the benefits of DAP platforms for businesses.

- Seamless integration: Digital tools become a natural part of business processes.
Example: A company deploying a new CRM observes full digital adoption when its sales and marketing teams exploit all the software's functionalities without external intervention.

The success of a digital transformation depends directly on digital adoption. Here are the major challenges:
- Reducing resistance to change: Accompanying employees encourages them to adopt the new tools.
