BYOD fuelling and innovating the mobility concept

According to Gartner’s prediction, more than fifty percent of companies will adopt BYOD by 2017, which suggests the companies will replace their static computing devices with mobile ones. Though companies are trying to embrace BYOD at an experimental stage, several companies reported higher productivity and greater employee satisfaction upon implementing BYOD. In 2013, BYOD underwent a revolution with new developments called CYOD (Choose your own device) and COPE (Company owned personally enabled devices). This evolution in enterprise grade BYOD concepts hint at the progressive adoption of enterprise mobility.

Integration of CRM with Mobile app

Considered as a contemporary marketing solution, integration of CRM could drive great benefits for businesses in terms of valuable customer’s data and their behaviour pattern. The information thus extracted helps businesses design their next personalized marketing strategy. Retail apps and certain gaming apps have already started asking their customers for more personal details such as their birth date to make their experience ever richer. The tricky ways to make customers participate in supplying more personal data is a strategy behind the integration.

With the instances of security attacks and data breaches plaguing the IT industry every now and then, information security becomes the foremost priority. The pressing demand for enhanced security has fostered the idea of building application self-protection features inside dedicated business apps.

After security comes the cost. Involvement of personal devices makes companies bear expenses since more devices will need to be managed and secured. Unless companies work on adopting standard practices for reimbursement, BYOD approach will remain far-fetching vision.
