NEW YORK, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
The changing face of multinational mobility, 2010–12
http://www.reportlinker.com/p0289361/The-changing-face-of-multinational-mobility-2010–12.html
Many multinational corporations (MNCs) aim to have a more centralized and unified approach to mobility, which they see as an essential component of their unified communications (UC) and broader ICT strategies. However, it is not surprising that MNCs, under increasing pressure from end users to adopt a more consumer-like approach, continue to struggle to centralize and manage the growing cost and technical complexity of mobility on a global scale. In the fifth year of our research with the Enterprise VPN User Association (EVUA), we look at members' progress with mobility and their verdict on some of their mobile service providers' offers.
