What is Information Systems? An information system is a collection of hardware, software, data, people and procedures that are designed to generate information that supports the day-to-day, short-range, and long-range activities of users in an organization. Information systems are classified into five categories: Office Information systems, Transaction Processing systems, Management Information systems, Decision Support systems, and Expert systems. It is common for organizations to use more than one system to run a business.
