75% of Enterprise Employees Prefer iOS Over Android, 72% Choose Mac Over PC [Report]

A new Jamf survey that examines the impact of device choice on the employee experience finds that employees prefer iOS over Android and Mac over PC.

Today, more than half of enterprise organizations (52 percent) allow employees to choose what type of computer they use at work, while nearly half (49 percent) allow them to choose their mobile devices. When organizations give employees the ability to choose their technology, they consistently choose Apple. Of organizations with choice, 72 percent chose Mac and 28 percent chose PC. A further 75 percent of respondents indicated they chose an iPhone or iPad, while only 25 percent chose Android.




Summary of Key Survey Findings:
● 90 percent of employees surveyed whose organizations currently have a choice program believe it should become a standard for all businesses
● 68 percent claim that the ability to select their device of choice makes them more productive in the workplace
● 35 percent of respondents felt that using their device of choice made them proud of where they work
● 74 percent of enterprise employees would prefer a company-issued device over a personally-owned device because end users prefer to keep their lives separate
● 75 percent of employees who are offered the choice between iOS and Android as their mobile device operating system chose iOS
● 72 percent of employees who are offered the choice between Mac and PC chose Mac
● 77 percent of respondents would choose to stay at a company that offers technology choice or work at a company that offers a similar program
