Abstract：In this paper,enterprise-level users’ technology adoption model of cloud computing is proposed based on TOE model.In this model,factors affecting the adoption behavior are summed up into technical factors,organizational factors,environmental factors and risk factors.The empirical results show that task-technology fit degree,technology organization compatibility in technical factors and normative pressures in environmental factors have a significant positive effect on enterprise users’ intention to adopt cloud computing,while security risks and privacy concerns in risk factors have a significant negative effect on users’ intention.This study finds that the two organizational factors,senior managers’ attitude and resource readiness,are not important factors in the adoption of cloud computing,in the meanwhile,comparative advantage and technical complexity in technical factors,imitate pressure and forced pressure in environmental factors have no significant influence on users’ intention to use cloud computing.
