Falls
Church, VA., February 21, 2013 -- Market Analyst, LLC, a value-added
distributor of market research reports and business information, announced
today that the decision makers’ views heavily affected the mobile enterprise
device and application trends in 2012.
According
to a report added by Market Analyst to its research portfolio, about one-third
of the organizations are issuing Smartphones to their employees. The emphasis
is more on Smartphones than tablets. Investigations of the workforce across
various parts of the United States reveal that these devices are being issued
to slightly remote and mobile employees. However, more and more traditional,
in-office workers are choosing to bring their own Smartphone devices to work. The
report by Frost & Sullivan is titled “2012 IT Decision Makers’ Views of Mobile Enterprise Device and
Application Trends”
The focal
point of the report is to measure the usage of mobile phones within enterprises
in US, with special emphasis on Smartphones and tablets. According to the data
gathered; organization-issued mobile phones to in-office employees are seen as
more of an option or privilege since these workers are already connected to the
office. As for those, who bring their own devices to work; most organizations
are allowing these devices on the premises but with varying degree of
support.A large proportion of these
organizations are not supporting these devices on their networks.
The most
widely used applications are wireless email and PIM (Personal information
Manager), and the report predicts that their uptake rate is sure to surge in
the coming years. The same goes for applications solutions which allow company
asset tracking and hosted/cloud based applications which provide out-of-the-box
solutions and are preferred over the custom solutions.
