Summary

Each year, Forrester receives more than 20,000 inquiries on a variety of topics that provide insight into the key issues and challenges facing our clients. During the past two years, the number of enterprise mobility inquiries increased nearly 55%, jumping from 360-plus inquiries in 2007 to 550-plus inquiries in 2008. In the past year, we have seen a spike in the number of inquiries focused on mobile network architecture, new types of mobile devices, and deploying vertically focused mobile applications that address the needs of workers in certain industries (e.g., retail, transportation, and healthcare). The roles of individuals asking these questions include not only IT infrastructure executives but also marketing and business process professionals, as enterprise mobility solutions are often implemented across multiple organizational business units.
