The rise and rise of Macs in businesses

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

Why businesses are embracing Macs
A trend of IT letting users manage their own PCs often leads to Mac adoption

It’s not your imagination. Apple Macintoshes are turning up in businesses beyond the creative departments, increasingly becoming a normal part of the IT fabric. One recent IT survey by researcher Information Technology Intelligence shows that 23 percent of respondents had at least 30 Macs in their businesses, 12 percent had at least 4,000 Macs — and 68 percent said they would let users choose Macs as their work PCs in the next year. A Forrester Research survey of larger enterprises showed that Macs now account for 4.5 percent of deployed systems. (Both IDC and Gartner report that Macs now make up 9.1 percent of all PCs sold to individuals.)

IT’s acceptance of the Mac appears to be genuine, not a grudging response to unwanted user demand: “Desktop managers are painting a rosy future for Apple on the corporate desktop,” the recent Forrester report states. One reason is the quality of the Mac hardware and operating system; Information Technology Intelligence’s survey shows that 82 percent of IT respondents rated the Mac platform as very good or excellent, compared with 60 percent for Windows Vista…..

It’s worth a read… have a look at it over here.
