Business on the move is now a large of part of modern life with the penetration of connected devices in the office environment growing wider everyday. The majority of workers now use smartphones and tablets as part of their work; not just to read and send emails, but also create presentations and speak to colleagues back in the office and worldwide when they are on their travels.
This shift to mobile working is changing how organisations function and without connectivity on the move many businesses can fall behind their rivals. Improvements to mobile connectivity has been the catalyst in the shift to working on the move with 3G and now 4G enabling high speed connections when and wherever you are.
Better still, all forms of transport are now being transformed into mobile workplaces, such as trains that have access to Wi-Fi and power sockets for business people wanting to work on the way to a meeting. Even cars now have innovative kit, like USB connections, steering wheel-based desks and in-car printers that enable business to work seamlessly on the road, so that no free time is lost at any stage of travel.
All this means that workers are no longer office-bound and can be continuously out in town or on the road; which makes email the only guaranteed way to connect them to the job. The statistics back this theory up with more than thirty percent of emails now opened on mobile devices; a figure that will surely rise if technology continues to improve at its current rate.
The shift to mobile devices has caused issues for corporate ecards; which have become the now common method for sending business greetings throughout the year. Traditionally, ecards were built on Flash that enabled motion to jazz up greeting cars rather than the bog standard nature of posting a card. However, numerous connected devices do not support Flash causing issues for the industry.
Fortunately, eCO2greetings have great ecards that are fully mobile-friendly enabling your corporate ecard to be opened and shared when out and about on business. They all perform just as well when opened on a smartphone or tablet as they do on a desktop computer, which guarantees that your corporate greeting will never fall on deaf ears and can be enjoyed anywhere at anytime.
The mobile-friendly nature of ecards now adds another string to their bow against posting your festive business greeting this Christmas.
