Global IT intelligence major IDC says that the office computer, a staple feature of working life for almost everybody, may soon be a thing of the past. Its research showed that close to 60 per cent of organisations across Asia/Pacific already have some kind of mobility policy relating to ‘Bring Your Own Device’ (BYOD) to work, driven primarily by the usage of personally owned smartphones in the enterprise.
BYOD smartphone utilisation will peak around 2016 to 2017, and tablets will peak around 2017 – 2018, IDC says.
