 "Enterprise mobility a key priority")
More than 70 per cent of organisations have plans to spend on projects for mobilising enterprise apps, according to a report by Greyhound Research. In other words, more than 70 per cent of organisations are either already running or planning a mobility technology expansion project. While apps like CRM, BI and HCM are gaining traction on the mobile, traditional apps like email and calendaring continue to be the highest used apps. The research is based on interviews with 100 CIOs across emerging markets including Asia Pacific, West Asia and Africa.
According to the research, this speaks volumes about enterprise mobility being a key priority for organisations across the emerging markets. However, more than 30 per cent of these organisations are facing challenges like lack of clarity on policies for multiple users and roles in the organisation, leading to a choice between app wrapping or deploying an MDM solution, among others. More than 32 per cent organisations in emerging markets are struggling with developing apps that run across multiple operating systems and form factors. From being BlackBerry centric, users across most organisations are increasingly migrating to Apple's iPhone and Google's Android, making the scenario a complex and expensive one for IT teams.
