Thinking of introducing Business Mobiles to your company?

Are you considering introducing mobile phones into your business, you could benefit from greater customer satisfaction and increased communication levels companywide.

As with all business decisions, there is a risk involved, we’ve outlined the main things you have to consider when implementing a mobile phone strategy and what we can do to support you.

As always we use our experience to give you all the relevant information about company mobiles  so you can make an informed choice about what’s best for your business.

 Are company mobiles right for your Glasgow Business?

A centralised mobile phone policy can help streamline communications and ensure key personnel remain in touch during business critical periods. 

Clyde Solutions can offer Glasgow Business the benefits of flexible rolling contracts which drastically reduces monthly costs. We can work with you to analyse your monthly bills and ensure your always on the best package possible. Here's Clyde Solutions advice on how to manage your company mobiles.

 Allow your employees to work anywhere

With modern mobile office suites, a smartphone can perform many tasks that you could only do on your laptop.

Mobile phones can allow your employees to work on the go, handling many basic office tasks without the need to return to the office. This can significantly increase productivity, especially if your business requires employees to travel frequently. In addition, company issued smartphones allow you to establish a common office suite to ensure that everyone's communications and files are compatible and facilitate collaboration and project management.

 Streamlined Support

Having a company standard for smartphones also streamlines your IT and support requirements. If you allow employees to use their personal phones for business tasks, incompatibilities could lead to dropped messages, missing files, and other problems.

IT employees may have to manage not only iOS and Android operating systems, but the custom Android builds used by some phones. That alone can create problems with incompatibility. Issuing one model of phone from a single carrier ensures that everyone is on the same technological page and allows support staff to focus on a single operating system.

 Worried about mobile misuse?

Company issued mobile phones can be valuable tools, but they can also be distractions. 

Modern smartphones allow users to listen to music, play games, watch videos, and access popular social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Establishing a clear policy regarding non work use of a company issued mobile phone can help you ensure that employees are aware of the repercussions if they misuse their company mobile. 

Clyde Solutions can also monitor usage and place restrictions on data and out of bundle charges.

 Worried about the cost?

Although the initial outlay for hardware can be substantial, the benefits of your staff having a virtual office can outweigh the initial costs, and will lead to better business long term.

Another benefit to the company would be to add GPS trackers to employee phones can be a great tool for keeping track of your workers, when then are out and about.
