Bottom line

BOYD is here to stay. Just like the '90s saw a huge rise in telecommuting, we should start seeing a larger amount of BYOD flooding businesses. As this happens, the right software will be necessary. Add the titles here to your list of 'must tries' to make your BYOD transition painless.

There's a clue here...

This is not the first article I've seen on how to "deal" with BYOD. If there are enough issues with BYOD that people need to have guides or apps to help them make BYOD "easier", then that's a pretty clear signal that BYOD is just a bad (and stupid) practice. We don't allow BYOD in my company and there's no problem with that.

Why

I don't understand why LibreOffice is listed under BYOD, since it is Windows machines (Desktops/Laptop) only. How does this help with phones and tablets?

When I try to click to support either of the first two comments objecting to slideshows, and asking for proper blogs instead, I am directed to a "page not found" message: http://www.techrepublic.com/util/vote?tag=discussion-asset-thread

Is this a way of suppressing criticism ?
