With an increase in the variety of devices available to organizations and the workstyles of the employees who use them, management of the device lifecycle is more complicated and expensive than it has ever been, especially in light of the recent global trend of remote or flexible work. IT organizations must support a wide range of device and technology options to an increasingly dispersed and mobile workforce while maintaining low user disruption, all amid cost uncertainty. The rise of subscription services for traditional IT categories, such as devices, known to Forrester as device as a service (DaaS), shifts employee device purchasing from a one-time fixed cost to a continuous expenditure, an initiative that can improve digital employee experience while offering budget, hiring, and project flexibility to the IT organization.
