More than 86 Percent of Managers Want Mobile Access to Their Business Apps, According to GetApp
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) April 02, 2015 -- GetApp, the largest cloud-based business apps marketplace, has released new research identifying that more than 86 percent of managers and owners of small and medium-sized businesses think that their business software should be mobile accessible.
The research, based on responses from a panel of more than 1000 business owners, was conducted as part of GetApp’s independent research program, GetData. The program aims to fully understand the true impact of SaaS (Software as a Service) and cloud-based solutions on small and medium-sized businesses, while also understanding how SaaS customers interact with their products and services.
While 86.9 percent of the panel say that their business software should be mobile accessible, over a third, 36.2 percent, say that it’s absolutely necessary. Only 13.1 percent of the panel say that mobile accessibility for their business apps isn’t important.
Christophe Primault, co-founder and CEO of GetApp, says, “It’s no secret that today, mobile is more important than it’s ever been for businesses. What this latest research confirms is that it’s no longer good enough for a business app to provide an excellent desktop-only experience. More and more, businesses want feature-rich apps that can move around as much as they do.”
