The rapid rise of mobile devices connected to enterprise systems is unmatched by any other technology in recent memory. Trailing with this, a new global survey from CIO Strategic Marketing Services and Triangle Publishing Services, sponsored by Oracle has revealed that not only are enterprises committed to mobility these days, but the rate of development, deployment and spending for support of mobile applications and devices is expected to increase dramatically over the next few years. Additionally, the survey showed that there are increasing concerns from IT executives over mobile security and integration with back-end systems.

To better understand the challenges of mobile application development and deployment in the enterprise today and in the future, CIO Strategic Marketing Services and Triangle Publishing Services released a global survey, sponsored by Oracle, titled "The Connected Enterprise: Keeping Pace with Mobile Development."

Survey respondents included 414 IT management executives from around the world, including CIOs, CTOs, senior vice presidents or vice presidents; directors or managers of IT; and, senior IT professionals. The survey highlights the technological factors most critical to success and where mobility initiatives can provide the greatest business benefits, both now and in the future.

"Mobility has been ubiquitous for a while but only 10 percent* of enterprises have an enterprise wide deployment of mobile. Its impact and adoption are gaining importance today. This survey is reassuring in that enterprises see potential for great payoff from making a strong mobile commitment. They are recognizing that mobile applications provide a new way to develop and maintain relationships with customers," said Suhas Uliyar, Vice President, Mobile Strategy & Product Management, Oracle.

Although the survey results showed a high commitment to mobility, they also showed little consensus about methods of mobile development and deployment, whether across industries or across geographies.The survey also revealed that although 29 per cent of IT development time is spent on front-end mobile app development, more than 70 per cent of their time is spent on integration, security, quality assurance testing and design work.
