Prepare me for the consumerisation of mobile devices

For the first time in history, the proliferation of new mobile technologies is being driven by consumers rather than big businesses. The upshot is that mobile devices and applications are infiltrating every organisation, from top to bottom, changing the way they operate forever.

This ‘consumerisation’ of workplace technology has massive implications, not least for the IT departments that have to deal with the myriad challenges that are associated with this irreversible new trend.

We can support organisations to meet these challenges head-on, helping them implement the policies and technologies needed to manage the risks, and take advantage of a trend that has to be seen as a fantastic opportunity to develop and grow.

Read on or contact your account manager to see how BT can help your organisation prepare for, and benefit from, the growing consumerisation of mobile devices.

The intuitive interface and rich features of consumer devices have transformed our personal lives and our expectations of enterprise IT. CIOs always dreamed that business people would become more ‘tech savvy’ and now they have become ‘consumer tech savvy’.”
