Abstract
The aim of this study is to identify the issues faced by SMEs all around the world in adopting e-business. This is a work of literature study with the classification based on technological, organizational, and environmental (TOE). The study collects 116 articles from various journal portals. The finding of this study is the factors that concerned the most in adopting e-business among the SMEs which are related to the organization. The organization has a contribution of 50% compared to technology and the environment. Under the organization, human resource is a prominent key to be improved if the SMEs want to adopt e-business well. This situation applies in the continents of Asia America, Europe, Australia, and Oceania. Only African SMEs concern more about management rather than human resources. This study does not consider the interplay between the factors, however, the practical implication of this study is that the finding can be used as input for decision-makers who have an interest in improving the performance of SMEs or raising the level of SMEs in their region, one of which is by increasing the adoption rate of e-business among SMEs. Further, there is an opportunity for future research in investigating the strength of the relationship in each factor to the adoption of e-business, or even in between factors. The contribution of this study is to provide thorough synopsis regarding the factors that need to be considered by the SMEs if they want to adopt e-business.
