Mobile technologies are now a vital utility for businesses, study suggests

Mobile technologies are as important for a running a business in a proper manner as a proper supply of electricity, gas and water, a recent market research study can reveal.

The study by Intrinsic investigated the approaches to, and attitudes towards, mobility, amongst 200 IT decision makers at mid-sized UK organisations (with between 250 and 1,000 employees) and results suggests that mobile technologies are now seen by 92 per cent IT decision makers as the fourth utility for business, alongside electricity, gas and water.

Further underlining the importance of mobility, 78 per cent of respondents agree that such technologies are key to their organisations’ success in 2014 and beyond.

But despite this, many businesses are not taking a concerted, strategic approach to embracing it, since more than one in four respondents reports that their organisation doesn’t have a mobile strategy and 30 per cent say that their organisation does not have a continuity strategy, or not as far as they are aware, when it comes to internet access. Similar proportions report no continuity strategy for loss of communications software (35 per cent) or loss of mobile devices (46 per cent).
