Default Re: BB users moving away ?

I work for a large high tech company that was one of the first to implement BES. At its height we had well over 15k users on them (mix of BYOD and company paid). Almost every employee now has a device (iPhone, BB, or some like me both) and the number of BES seats is declining rapidly.

I have yet to see anyone around me renew a company paid device with a BB, or bring in a BB as a BYOD, all are moving to iPhone. Due to security issues, no Android allowed though.

I'm not in IT, but they tell me that with MDM, they are able to support iPhones as well as they ever did with BB on BES.

All the new internal mobile applications are being written for iPhone/iPad users, not for BB.

Also, rapidly increasing number of iPads on board as well (on EAS)
