Abstract

In order to see how mobile virtualization affects the BYOD user, a pilot was done with Divide from Enterproid, one of the mobile virtualization technologies described previously that is based on a application container approach. The pilot was run for 12 weeks with over 1,100 registered users out of which 817 were activated. Users were all employees who volunteered to participate in the pilot. There were no screening criteria and no specific instructions for use of Divide during the pilot. There were no prescribed evaluation tasks; participants were free to use Divide on their personal smartphone and/or tablet device(s) for business and personal tasks, in a manner natural to them.
