Change IT Policy for Tablet Usage

Today with the rapid usage of tablets at the workplace are becoming a source of headache for the CIOs and HR managers. You cannot stop your employees from using their personal devices at office. It makes sense to encourage them to use whatever devices they are comfortable. After all employee satisfaction and comfort is a major focus point in the IT companies. So what do you do?

 First of all, change your corporate policies. Don't try to control your employees devices (it's not going to work), instead you can put a control on how they use it for the corporate work.

Secondly, with more and more people working from home, devising a concrete policy is even more bigger challenge. Hence work together with the employees to work out a solution which leaves space to them as well as keep you secured.

The simplicity, availability and easy access to the content, be it video or written, will be the main driver of cloud for business-to-consumer or even consumer-to-consumer usage. Cloud is already seen as a great advantage for B2B operations, and I definitely feel that within a couple of years you can its consumeristic power to. Yup, cloud is the way to go.
