Enterprise mobility has become one of the biggest challenges in today’s wireless world. There are many different operating models to keep employees connected and productive. What started as BYOD (bring your own device) has now expanded to include COPE (corporate-owned, personally-enabled) and CYOD (choose your own device).
Fortunately for businesses in the Philippines, there’s a much simpler and cost efficient way to balance mobile communication with cost. Instead of giving mobile devices, why not send load to employees?
Mobile load distribution can be the answer to mobile communication.
Get the Advantages of BYOD
Employees today juggle different devices including ultrabooks, phablets and smartphones. On top of these are a wide variety of task management and collaborations tools that they also need to manage.
Distributing mobile load enables your employees to work with one tool they’re already comfortable with. They don’t have to use another mobile device. They don’t need to keep another SIM. They don’t have to carry another charger. They don’t have to hound IT when something goes wrong.
Filipinos have joined the BYOD movement – 52% find ways to integrate their personal device into the workplace, 41% continue to use them despite the lack of corporate IT support, and 73% believe that companies who use BYOD are progressive.
Keep Your Operations Focused
Maintaining company-issued mobile device requires a lot of resources. HR, finance and IT departments need to be coordinated to issue, track, and maintain mobile phones. More importantly, cell phone technology changes rapidly because mobile phones have a shorter built-in obsolescence.
A mobile loading platform is a no installation easy sign-up process. You just register a phone number, cash-in, add your contacts, and distribute mobile load. There are no forms to fill-up, monthly bills to settle, reimbursements to issue, and another step in the onboarding process to finish. This allows you to have more oversight over expenses and usage.
Allow Technological Mobility
Employees of today no longer need to stick with a 9 to 5 grind or need an office to work. Technology has enabled remote work long before the Work from Home Bill was passed.
Personal devices are embedded into people’s lives that your employees are going to use them no matter what. According to the VMWare Study Filipino employees’ value technological mobility – 71% said companies who feel the same would be their employer of choice, 73% are happier when allowed to use their device at work, 80% are more efficient when working out of the office.
Allowing employees to use their personal device and providing mobile support is a great combination to ensure productivity and collaboration.
The key to productivity is placing the right process and leveraging the proper tool. A company-issued mobile device is not a perk anymore. Combining load distribution and BYOD is a practical approach to mobile communication in a country with over 30 million smartphone users.
Have your own mobile loading tool and empower your mobile workforce. No installation required.
