ChangeWave recently surveyed 1,604 IT personnel with buying power in their company. 22% of the surveyed companies said that they were in the market to buy tablets for their employees in 2012 and of those planning on getting tablets in the next quarter, 84% are siding with the iPad. Thats up from 77% in November – clearly the new iPad is spiking interest in businesses as well as consumers. Even BlackBerry, the traditional leader in enterprise, only demanded 3% of corporate tablet demand. Samsung’s took second place, albeit far behind apple with 8% demand.
Is anyone really surprised by results like this? Although it continues to highlight Apple’s vice grip on the tablet market, there’s still plenty of room for the tablet market itself to grow. An IT folks out there on the verge of rolling out iPads to the workforce? Have any of y’all already pulled the trigger?
