The Consumerization of IT

As budgets continue to get squeezed, it is time to say goodbye to company-provided mobile devices. No more employer provided cell phones, smartphones, tablets, and laptops. No more tracking hardware assets for inventory.

Don't get me wrong, the enterprise should contribute at least a portion of the funds needed to acquire the mobile devices used for work purposes. Yet, with today's rate of technological advancement in the consumer-focused market, companies no longer need to try and keep up with the latest advances in the mobile device space while dictating a company standard set of devices.

Blasphemy, you say? I think not. Your employees will love you for it.
