BYOD is more than trend

Cisco workforce survey in Northern Europe confirms need for open, flexible workplace environment that accommodates social media, device freedom and remote access.

The 4 key findings on Device Freedom are:

• Most end users (84%) report using two or more devices during a typical workday.

• More than half (51%) of IT decision makers indicate that up to 50% of their company's mobile workers use a smartphone as their primary communication device. Relative to Norway, a significantly larger proportion of end users in Belgium use their mobile phone for work. Nearly 4 in 10 (38%) end users are allowed to use their personal PC or Mac for work.
• Approximately half of the surveyed end users are restricted from using personal devices for work purposes and for access to the corporate network.
• More than one-third (37%) of end users expect access from a personal mobile device.
