Everybody is doing it
95% of medium sized companies are already offering some sort of mobile working solution.
Of course there are more mobile devices than ever too.
More than a billion smartphones were sold last year. We don’t expect you to be surprised.
But as demanding as they are, they want to be able to work on the go.As an employer you should be able to provide access to files, documents and applications in the cloud with a strong connection to support it.
Understanding today - working trends
