Enterprise Information Mobility Study Survey

There is a great deal of interest in providing access to enterprise information, such as intranets and business intelligence applications, through smartphones.

Six out of the ten Nielsen Norman Intranet Design Annual 2011 winners had a mobile strategy and the results of the Global Intranet Trends survey in 2010 indicated that 40% of the leading intranets had a strategy.

Intranet Focus Ltd and IntraTeam A/S is carrying out a survey to find out what the current situation is.

You get to see a summary of the result after completing this less than 5 minutes survey.

You won't get to see answers to the open questions, names and e-mails.

Martin White will include an analysis of the results, including responses to the open questions, in his paper on Mobile Search on Wednesday March 2 afternoon at IntraTeam Event Copenhagen.
