Android Arrives: Consumerization of IT Gets Muddy

Android Arrives: Consumerization of IT Gets Muddy | Consumerization of IT | Scoop.it

Consumerization of IT isn't just about Apple.  CIO Magazine looks at the arrival of Android devices in the enterprise.  The IT pro response is somewhat surprising:

 

"Interestingly, a lot of IT guys are rooting for Android. The reason, I think, is
that there's some unexpressed hope that they can lock down the Android OS. They
can put on what they want. They can do the monitoring. They can do the auditing.
They can reconfigure and redeploy with their own image."

Hell freezes over: Forrester urges IT to support the Mac - Apple 2.0 - Fortune Tech | Consumerization of IT | Scoop.it

Forrester in 2008:

"IT departments crave standardization, and Macs pose too many problems for IT departments. The verdict for enterprise-focused vendors is clear: Unless your market is a niche business group, Windows is the only desktop you need support."

 

Forrester in 2011:

"It's time to repeal prohibition and take decisive action, Mac users are your HEROes and you should enable them not hinder them."
