Business Slow To Adopt Mobile Data
While many companies hoping to make money off of the whole mobile data thing like to initially target corporate users, assuming that's where the money is, it's looking like this might be a mistake. The business users are slow adopters when it comes to mobile data. Most of the mobile data adoption is coming from the consumer side, where there really aren't any hurdles once a person has a modern mobile phone and service. Business users, however, have a huge hurdle, in making the mobile data services work with their existing applications. Of course, they'll come around eventually, but companies looking to get attract business users need to look for ways help remove that hurdle.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
