Companies are becoming more and more interested in buying smartphones and tablets, and many of them choose to purchase Apple products. Unfortunately, not all companies that purchase iDevices have at least a vague idea why they are making the purchase and a multinational company from Australia He spent several million dollars on 14.000 iPad tablets and had to return 40% of them. The reason? A very simple one... employees didn't know how to work with them and important programs they needed didn't exist in an iOS version.
"A company I spoke with last week bought 14,000 iPads for its management team, and 40 percent of them had sent the devices back because they don't have a clue what to do with them," Montgomery told ZDNet Australia. never considered what the value was and what was going to be delivered [through the iPads].
"Understanding the impact of consumerisation on mobility should be considered by CIOs."
Practically a little over 6.000 iPad tablets were returned to Apple because the employees did not know how to use them and had no one to learn from, and here both Apple and the company that bought them lose. Unfortunately, the company's important administration applications do not run on operating systems for mobile terminals and it seems that the terminals that run them cannot be accessed remotely. Apple cannot offer special management software for companies, developers cannot do something similar, so it remains for a company to buy tablets, but to develop software for them.
