Mobile Computing: Strong Correlation Between High Productivity and Strong Mobile Strategies
Organizations that deploy mobile tend to be organizations that show the most marked improvements in productivity, according to a report by IBM. Organizations with strong mobile strategies tend to excel in the areas of analytics, speed, integration and security.
Findings from the report include:
- 90 percent of organizations either plan to maintain or increase their current spending for mobile technology
- More than half of organizations say that the use of mobile technology increased their employee productivity by more than 10 percent
- 73 percent of business leaders say that they’ve realized considerable returns by deploying mobile
IBM’s Kevin Custis said “it is far too limiting to define mobility simply as a device or a channel for transactions. The organizations that come out ahead will be the ones that prioritize mobile and redefine its use to drive a new set of business expectations and user experiences.”
Only 14 percent of organizations have been identified as having strong mobile strategies. Challenges that make adoption of mobile difficult include:
- Integrating mobile apps with existing systems (54 percent)
- Implementing end-to-end mobile security solutions for devices and apps (53 percent)
- Unable to react to and quickly adopt new mobile technologies (51 percent)
