The development of the Internet has provided significant changes in the production and management activities of organizations belonging to various sectors of the economy. The problem of assessing the achieved level of application of Internet technologies is of considerable interest and is relevant. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the indicators characterizing the use of fixed and mobile Internet by organizations located in different regions of Russia. The study was based on official statistical information on organizations located in 82 regions for 2020. In the course of the study, empirical data modeling was carried out, reflecting such indicators as the share of organizations using mobile and fixed Internet in the total number of all organizations located in the region; the share of organizations that consider the quality of mobile and fixed Internet satisfactory in the total number of all organizations using mobile and fixed Internet in the region. It has been proved that by now, the average regional value of the indicator characterizing the share of organizations using mobile Internet was 38.4%, and the indicator characterizing the share of organizations using fixed wired and wireless Internet was almost 78%. The absolute majority (almost 90%) of the heads of organizations in which the Internet was used noted its satisfactory quality. Mobile Internet had significantly lower quality (54.2%). In the course of the study, regions were ranked according to the level of access and quality of the Internet in organizations located in these regions. Lists of regions with minimum and maximum values of the considered indicators have been compiled. The results of our work have a certain theoretical and practical significance. The methodological approach presented in the article to assess the level of Internet use and its quality can be used in further research.
