I don’t know what I don’t know…I just know what I want.

Massive impact

14

I want to be agnostic

Any device, any operating system

Corporate devices, shared and non-shared

BYOD

Customer facing too?

15

I want easy configuration

Standardized or user-customized?

Push new content, pull relevant data

What MDM?

How much functionality will be ‘shut off’ or restricted for policy reasons?

16

I want a lot of bandwidth

How many systems &/or networks will it need to access?

Users won’t restrict themselves to just the approved functions or applications.

17

I want adoption in field

It has to meet a real need and solve a real problem… and it has to make money doing it.

It can’t just be cool

It has to integrate well into existing work processes

18

I want to report results

Real time data

Usage data is important

Focus on KPIs

Real time data exported from TabbleDabbleinto Excel for instant analysis

19

Where to from here?

National roll out 180 stores

Merge with BYOD Hybrid depolyment

More social User generated
