Much to the chagrin of companies such as Microsoft, BlackBerry and Google, Apple iOS devices are still dominating mobility in the enterprise. Apple’s hold over the workplace is diminishing, however, according to research from Good Technologies. The company, which tracks device activations in enterprises, published a mid-year report suggesting Android is making gains over iOS.
Apple’s iOS still rules the enterprise space, even after having fallen 5 percentage points to 67 percent of total device activations in Q2 2014. Android device activations increased the same amount to 32 percent of total activations last quarter, while Windows Phone activations remain consistent with the five previous quarters: flat at 1 percent. The latest findings come from Good Technology‘s semi-annual Mobility Index Report. It’s worth noting that since BlackBerry devices use BlackBerry Enterprise Server for corporate email access, Good Technology does not have insight into BlackBerry handset activations.
