hit it off

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get on' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'mimic successfully adopting new technology' is the wordplay.
'mimic successfully' becomes 'hitoff' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'adopting' is an insertion indicator.
'new technology' becomes 'it' (information technology).
'hitoff' placed around 'it' is 'HIT IT OFF'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hit it off that I've seen before include "Click with someone" , "Develop a good friendly relationship" , "Become compatible and friendly" , "Get on well - with a blow?" , "Be well suited" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
