Highlights

The enterprise mobility market is relatively immature in comparison to other enterprise technologies such as enterprise applications and security. This is due to the more recent development of the technologies as well as the fact that the solutions are desirable rather than essential. There have been a number of acquisitions in the last couple of years. Vendors are hoping to make a significant impact and gain a foothold whilst the market is still in its early stages. Although the larger players have started to consolidate, there are still many niche vendors and no one vendor can provide a complete enterprise mobility solution. One of the key drivers of enterprise mobility investments is business process improvements. Mobility solutions allow employees greater flexibility and can help increase productivity by reducing dead-time whilst on the road or in the field. One of the consequences of this is the increase in interest in mobilizing corporate applications.
