Dimensions of E-commerce Benefits as Perceived by Businesses

摘要

In this study the underlying dimensions of e-commerce benefits as perceived by businesses are investigated. Statistical analysis of empirical data from a questionnaire survey of managers of Chinese businesses resulted in three meaningful e-commerce benefits dimensions being uncovered. They are the Market, Efficiency, and Quality dimensions, which represent what companies perceive as business aspects where they can derive benefits by adopting e-commerce. In addition, the limitations of this study and directions for future research are discussed.
