As many top decision-makers recognized, the smartphone, tablet and recently the smart devices revolution, together with apps have changed business models across practically all industries. But the lack of integration with workflows and back-end systems has always been a barrier for mobile productivity. Mobile Enterprise continues to be a major contributor to business productivity beyond devices and communication. To get the full benefit, companies need to start digitizing, mobilizing and automating entire workflows. Therefore, an increasing number of clients are now looking up to their vendors and service providers for strategic advice on implementing productivity services and solutions. At the heart of all such solutions and offerings is the end user’s persona and an outlook towards enabling human-centric technology.
