TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Desktop Outsourcing Market: Hewlett-Packard Co., IBM Corp., Computer Sciences Corp., and Atos S.A.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “Organizations are highly benefited from the increased use of mobile devices and this is helping them grow rapidly. They are increasingly allowing their employees to bring their personal mobile devices to their office and thereafter connect to the business network from their own mobile devices. This phenomenon is known as BYOD and it poses serious challenges to companies who support these employees’ personal devices on their networks. Therefore desktop outsourcing service providers need to support and manage these devices. Organizations though aware of the potential risks, are working on their BYOD policies rather than restricting their employees to connect to the company networks through their own devices. This will lead to increased adoption of IT management solutions by companies which are embracing BYOD policy.”
According to the report, there has been a significant transformation and development in the way enterprises have gone about the market over the past few years. Currently, they are more receptive towards this concept. With the increasing complexity of the IT infrastructure, the demand for improved desktop management has increased. Also, there is an increase in the number of outsourcing destinations that offer high-quality services 24/7. Therefore, an increasing number of enterprises are engaging in desktop outsourcing.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is issues pertaining to data security and the lack of an environment of trust. Regarding outsourcing, enterprises are concerned about the security of their confidential and business-specific data stored in company desktops. Hence there is a business risk associated with outsourcing, which is hindering the adoption of desktop outsourcing services.
