Enterprise Workers Use "Non-Desk PCs" 1/2 the Time

A survey by Forrester Research shows that about half the time, surveyed employees use only their desk PCs. About 20 percent of the time, workers use both PCs and laptops, and 28 percent of the time use their desktop, notebook and smart phone.

Smart phones represent about 35 percent of the amount of time enterprise workers say they use at some point in a day. The desktop PC gets used at some point in the day by about 82 percent of users in a typical day.


Many employees use multiple devices during a typical day. Some 16 percent to 20 percent of workers said they use four devices at work. 

Perhaps 22 percent said they used two devices, 18 percent said three, 20 percent four or five, and 14 percent said six or more. 

In other words, workers using 2 or more devices was at 74 percent in February, and has now dropped to 66 percent. Tablet usage is about 12 percent.
