Journal Title: International Journal of Marketing and Technology - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Information system has become part of every activity in the modern times and in all organisations. The old perception about information system is fading day by day. This study is an attempt to examine the obstacles to proper management of information system. Considering higher learning institutions in Dar es Salaam, 200 questionnaires were collected from teaching and non-teaching staff that have access to information system facilities in three universities. The findings suggested that still hardware and network security pose greater threats to proper migration to digital environment in many learning organisations. It was concluded that there is a need to improve computing skills and design friendly systems in order to discourage improper working of information systems.
