Flexible Enterprise Mobility: Are You Ready?
September 19, 2013


Mobility is a key strategic tool to a massive percentage of businesses today but the mobile industry itself (devices and carriers) is a quickly shifting and unpredictable beast. Is your business ready for the inevitable tectonic-industry shifts of the future?
Let’s say hypothetically that two years after its risky acquisition of cell-maker Nokia, Microsoft has passed Google, Apple and Blackberry as the premier mobile device provider in the US and is gaining an edge internationally. It is mid-2015 and not only does Microsoft sell more phones to general consumers but it has developed the fastest-selling, most trusted, and arguably best mobile-enterprise solution. Many say that what Microsoft now provides in terms of stability, security and usability is reminiscent of the golden age of the once-great and now long-gone Blackberry.
Is this hypothetical future that unlikely? It is impossible, of course, to predict the distant future with any certainty, and at the present time it just seems silly that Microsoft could, in any way, overtake Samsung, Blackberry or Apple in terms of enterprise mobility. But who would have guessed that Apple, the maker of the late-90s neon-pink iMac would become the burgeoning success in seriously secure mobile-enterprise that it has? Big leaps like Apple’s are inevitably tomorrow’s news in the mobile industry.
And what about carriers? While less media-coverage is given to these ogre-sized companies on a day-to-day basis, their importance, of course, cannot be understated. These mobile service providers are just as prone to big changes as device manufacturers with frequent mergers and collapses, possibly leaving an army of business lines at risk of mismanagement.
So, what is a business to do when its key communication-fleet is at the mercy of a meteoric industry that is both brilliant and quickly crashing?
