Organizations have shifted to hybrid work models and adopted new mobile communications strategies due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Frost & Sullivan's recent analysis, Evaluating Mobile Communications Solutions for the Hybrid Workforce, finds that companies' increasing adoption of mobile-first communications allows them to address work from anywhere at any time. This helps them achieve crucial goals, such as empowering diverse workforces and retaining employees. Additionally, technology advancements, including 5G connectivity and improving device capabilities, enable better user mobile experiences and increase decision-makers' comfort in adopting mobile solutions.
"Organizations are expected to adopt mobile-forward strategies whereby future communications investments will be aligned with permanently shifted work styles and a strong appreciation for the benefits of mobility, Among other approaches to workforce mobile enablement, all-inclusive UCaaS seat licenses that provide mobile access to calling and UC features will drive further fixed-mobile convergence (FMC) adoption."
- Elka Popova, Connected Work Vice President at Frost & Sullivan.
