According to a Mordor Intelligence report, the growth prospects for the BYOD market will be very positive until 2023. Thus, this market will grow at a compound annual rate of more than 15% between 2018 and 2023 worldwide.
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is an emerging technology trend in which employees use their own devices to access the company’s system and data. This improves the area of innovation among employees and offers a better balance between personal and work life, increasing employee satisfaction.

On the other hand, the BYOD concept helps reduce operating costs, resulting in considerable savings for the organization. In addition, employees always keep their devices updated with the latest and emerging technologies, a fact that helps even more to increase satisfaction and innovation within the company.
