Enterprise Mobility has come such a long way in a short time. It doesn’t seem that long ago since employees were delighted with their Nokia work phones that allowed them to be contactable on the go. There were no capabilities for remote working and mobile devices were not regarded as essential productivity tools or the foundation on which business continuity would prevail.

Following on from our recent blog on imei’s 21 years in business, as we have evolved to a whole-of-business communications services provider, so too imei’s partnering activities have also evolved.

This month, imei reaches another significant milestone. We turn 21!

In celebrating our 21st birthday, I think it’s important to remember how far we’ve come since our days as a mobile phone service and support company. With the ongoing support of our strategic partners, vendors, and clients, we’ve grown into a full-service whole-of-business communications services provider.

Amid dramatic advances in technology in the past few years, the trend to a mobile and cloud first ethos has entered the mainstream. While the enterprise initially struggled to keep up, the business advantages of enterprise mobility are now hard to ignore.

These days, with 18 months of rapid change care of the global pandemic, the traditional 9-5 work framework with employees tethered to their computers in an office environment is no longer the status quo. In addition to employees working in the office, modern workplaces are now made up of remote workers who are working from home as well as employees working in other locations and virtual teams based in other countries.
