More than two-thirds (67%) report that BYOD has had a positive impact in terms of both employee productivity and IT efficiency.

 

What has been the effect of allowing employees to provide their own personal computing devices for work purposes? Among those organizations with some type of BYOD program in place, more than two-thirds (67%) report that it has had a positive impact in terms of both employee productivity and IT efficiency. Interestingly, there is a strong link between the degree to which organizations allow employees to supply their own computing devices and the type of impact this flexibility had yielded. Indeed, organizations with a formal BYOD policy in place are more than four times likelier (30% versus 7%) to indicate that this approach has had a significant positive impact for employees and IT alike than those that approve the usage of personal devices on a one-off basis.
