Information technology success has been widely discussed in the past two decades. As systems and technologies are being improved and developed, discussions on their effectiveness and evaluation on their success have been continuously debated by researchers, scholars and practitioners throughout the years. Besides the major concern of information technology effectiveness, this study identifies availability of internet facilities and software packages as the major independent variable affecting organization success. A purposive selection was adopted in selecting forty (40) medium scale enterprises from the five (5) divisions of Lagos state. Descriptive statistics was used to determine the distribution of the data collected and co-efficient of multiple determinant (R2) was used to determine the percentage contribution of the enterprises that had access to internet facilities and software packages to the variance that occurred in the profitability, relative market share and innovative strategy the findings revealed that the percentage contribution of the enterprises that had little or no access to internet and software packages to the organizational success is very low.
