Overall and precisely in the emerging markets, smartphone adoption continues to increase at the rapid pace.
While Voice services are still an important revenue component for
mobile operators, it is obvious that,
the importance of smartphones to the enterprise worker is steadily estimated. Enterprise
is becoming more connected, across both people and machines.
According to ABI Research handset
data plan revenues from the enterprise
segment can expect to exceed $200 billion in 2020.
ABI Research also revealed that, North America leads in total mobile enterprise
revenues across voice, messaging, handset data plans, mobile broadband,
business-to-employee applications and enterprise mobility management services.
However,
figures show that the Asia-Pacific region will overtake North America in 2017
to become the biggest market for enterprise mobility revenues.
