5 Apps That Make BYOD Transition Easy


Bangalore:  Electronic devices such as Smartphones, Phablets and tablets have seen a huge rise in popularity with innumerable features and availability. Employees, board members and clients now prefer their own devices in workplaces to carry out their jobs.

This means that individuals can use their own devices to access and store information (both corporate as well as personal) by maintaining privacy. This new trend is called BYOD or Bring Your Own Device (or even Bring Your Own Smartphone/ tablet).

Though the inherent mobility of devices these days makes it suitable for transition of data, it would be more advantageous if these below mentioned applications are used, as listed out by Tech Republic, helping out with an easy switch between home and office.
