Global Business Tablet Shipments: Quarterly Tracking Q3 2013

BYOD is the primary path for tablets into the enterprise, but the corporate liable segment is the faster growing category. More than 70% of the tablets purchased for business use in the Q3 2013 were BYOD, but volume purchased by enterprises increased nearly 60% over what it purchased in the third quarter in 2012, compared to a 35% increase in BYOD volumes. The relative immaturity of the tablet market has kept corporate purchases out of a predictable quarterly pattern, but signs are emerging that lack of pattern is beginning to change. This file tracks quarterly business tablet volumes purchased by enterprises (corporate liable) and BYOD volumes which are tablets purchased by individuals and used in a business capacity (personal liable). Volume is tracked at a regional level and by mobile platform and is devised through proprietary end-user research in conjunction with industry player guidance.
