Postscript: BYOD – the elephant in the room

BYOD is a choice, but …

… be aware that by not implementing, your end-

users will inevitably choose for you!

Technically, we know how to do BYOD ...

… but that’s not really the issue

If a BYOD scheme fails, it’s normally because of

the ‘soft’ issues, not the technology• Purchasing/finance schemes

• Health and safety issues

• HR policy/ employment T&Cs

• Insurance

• etc, etc

THE DEVIL’S IN THE DETAIL:

Company policy and attitude is just as

important as the technology.
