Research indicates that Apple is gaining more and more ground in the corporate market; 99% of companies already use iPhones or iPads

It should not be new to anyone that, since Tim Cook took over Apple, the company's focus on the corporate market area traditionally renounced by Steve Jobs has strengthened exponentially: there have been numerous partnerships and product announcements aimed at a greater presence within the business world.

Well, if these numbers from the 2017 Jamf Trends Survey, an annual survey carried out by the company that supports Apple products in the corporate environment, are true, Cook and his gang can already burst the champagne: the adoption of Ma products among the tie is increasing bigger.

iPad at work

Among the most important numbers in the survey, it was determined that today, 91% of the companies surveyed said they use Macs in their operations, while an incredible 99% said they use iPhones or iPads. Most of the companies reported a growth in the adopt of Ma's products in a year-on-year comparison: 74% of them in the case of Mac and 76% of them if we talk about iOS devices.

Furthermore, it is interesting to note that, in the research universe, 44% of companies already offer their employees the choice between a Mac or a PC, while 71% of them allow their employees to choose their mobile device, be it an iPhone or an Android smartphone (or Windows, or BlackBerry I don't know if I still need to quote these). The main reasons cited by the companies surveyed for adopting Apple products were ease of implementation, security, device configuration, Support, software development and integration.

Mac at work

In the surveyed sample, 62% of professionals stated that the Mac more easy to implement that PCs and 93% said that iOS is the easiest mobile platform in terms of implementation. If the subject security, 66% of respondents believe that macOS stands out against Windows computers and 90% favor iOS over competitors. The only not so positive number obtained by Ma's computers came when the researchers asked if they understood the ease of integration of existing corporate ecosystems with the Mac, only 36% of respondents answered affirmatively, while in the case of iOS this number rose to 79%.

The research also cites the case of IBM, which has already become the company with the most adoption of Macs in the world, is now almost 100,000 and, according to an internal survey, 73% of its employees want a Mac as their next computer.

At first glance, a survey reporting the growth in the use of Apple products in the corporate market from a company that profits from the use of Apple products in the corporate market may sound a little suspicious, but at least the credentials are reliable: data collection was It is carried out by Dimensional Research and was based on the responses of 300 professionals in the information technology area, including managers and executives, from companies that employ between 50 to more than 10,000 people.
