What this meant is that while BES might have been a given or the first choice for many companies, it suddenly became a less attractive option, with more employers and employees starting to favor a BYOD (bring your own device) program, where they could bring in a variety of smartphones to work, such as iPhones, Android devices, BlackBerry phones, Windows Phones, and etc.

According to Nokia India director, sales, Raghuvesh Sarup, “Bring your own device (BYOD) has helped us gain strong ground in the enterprise segment, especially for our Lumia smartphones. With Microsoft as a partner with us, companies have access to productivity solutions as well […] CIOs are primarily concerned about the security aspect which is again well taken care of by Lumia range” Will Nokia be able to gain a lead over the likes of Apple and Google? Or will BlackBerry fight back and reclaim their crown? We guess only time will tell.
