Five Tech Trends That Will Impact Your Business - Apple's iPad Makes Strides in the Enterprise


( Page 2 of 6 )

Apple's iPad, mainly targeted at consumers, is quickly becoming a viable alternative to lightweight notebooks in the enterprise. In fact, research firm, ITIC Corp., recently surveyed IT managers and found that about 23 percent of respondents say they will and/or  already have purchased iPads for their companies. Another 18 percent say they are thinking about ordering Apple's tablet for their operations in the coming months.

Bringing the iPad to your enterprise will take some planning. The device is well-designed and it works quite well. Yet, you can't forget that it does not allow for multitasking (yet), and that its chief use is for entertainment. Plus, it will only accommodate simple office-productivity functions due to the limitations of Apple's iOS. If you can get past those issues, as many CIOs have, you will find a cheap, lightweight alternative to notebooks worth considering.
