Recently read an article in CITEWorld entitled ”Stop treating mobile as a cost center”

The story’s author Brian Katz says: ”We need to stop looking at everything as a cost center that we have to cut to bare bones and instead look at the value we derive from enabling our users and our business.”

Once you use mobile to redefine a business process, mobile stops being a cost center. What are you seeing in your organization? Do you find yourself making value compromises when it comes to mobile in order to reduce costs?
