IT departments in small and medium-sized companies are
increasingly offering their staff support when they use their own
IT equipment at work.
According to a survey, 68% of IT managers report providing
support for personal technology, including computers and
smartphones.
Over 61% of IT managers said that some, if not all, the
computers they use for work purposes are their own, and 68% said
they use their own smartphones for work.
The survey, commissioned by
LogMeIn, found that an increasing number of small companies
were encouraging staff to work from home.
Over 71% of IT managers said that remote access services makes
their staff more productive.
Andrew Burton, vice-president of products, LogMeIn Inc, said,
"Information technology is not only a requirement for small and
medium-sized businesses, it is a strategic enabler."
