And now small and medium sized businesses have begun follow suit and want to take advantage of the trend, which accommodates workers and employers alike.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t made the switch yet, now is the time. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/75-internet-use-will-mobile-2017-report\/177433\/\" target=\"_blank\">Search Engine Journal<\/a>, 75 percent of web use will be from a mobile device next year; which should make implementing a mobile device management (MDM) solution a top priority for your organization if you want to keep your data secure. And with a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy in place, companies also have the opportunity to save money on hardware costs.<\/p>\n<p>It seems to be a no brainer, but if you need more convincing an article from Independent.ie says there are three major factors that should make the decision easier.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mobility Makes You More Competitive<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To start, as a mobile business you\u2019ll be more competitive in the market, which will in turn allow you to attract the top talent in your industry. Plus, having a mobile workforce allows your business to increase size without getting a bigger office, if that\u2019s a concern. Studies have proven that those who work from home or off-site are more productive than in-house employees.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Built-in Security Features<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another point of note is that mobile enterprises who take advantage of the cloud are also able to work with enhanced, built-in security features. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.ie\/storyplus\/how-can-your-sme-go-mobile-in-2017-35216892.html\" target=\"_blank\">Independent.ie<\/a>, the cloud is just as accessible for small businesses as they are for large ones.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are administrative controls that further help secure your environment, along with layers of security features and operational best practices,\u201d the article stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Better Collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And finally, collaboration is done with ease when your business goes mobile. Getting information passed between employees and synching information can be done more easily and in less time.<\/p>\n<p>If you still need more information, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/mdm-buyers-guide-request\/\">Mobility Management Buyer\u2019s Guide <\/a>or an eBook from Microsoft titled, \u201cMobilize your business.\u201d Click <a href=\"https:\/\/resources.office.com\/ww-landing-mobilize-your-business.html?wt.mc_id=AID560545_QSG_124884\" target=\"_blank\">here to check it out.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many enterprises have already transformed their business into a mobile one, as smartphones and other devices slip into more hands.
