CHALLENGES OF DEVICE PROLIFERATION

Data continues to proliferate throughout the business world. In fact, data has become a “fourth utility” – considered to be as vital as power, water, and heating/cooling! It’s no longer a nice-to-have, but a “must-have” business-critical asset.

As the use of data continues to rise, so too does the number of devices used throughout your facility. In addition to a diverse range of devices – including smartphones, radios, scanners, and tablets – organizations are also increasingly incorporating smart devices and Internet of Things (loT) sensors into their day-to-day operations. This growing device diversity is a challenge for organizations looking to streamline communications throughout their facilities. In addition, the increase in devices impacts employees’ ability to communicate with each other – a critical function throughout all commercial industries.

ACCORDING TO THE MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS’ COMMERCIAL MARKET COMMUNICATIONS SURVEY, DEVICE PROLIFERATION IS A GROWING PAIN POINT ACROSS COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIES.

MORE THAN 90% OF WORKERS say they currently use more than one device to communicate while on the job.

Workers ranked the ability to COMMUNICATE WITH COLLEAGUES ON ANY DEVICE AND TO REACH WORKERS AT ANY LOCATION among the top three most important factors in a communication system.

INTRODUCING MOTOTRBO ION

Today’s businesses run on voice and data. But if your facilities’ diverse range of devices can access only one, you’re not running at your best. The MOTOTRBO™ Ion smart radio is the first business-ready communication device with all-on voice and broadband data capabilities. It brings together renowned push-to-talk performance, an open application ecosystem on the Android platform, and access to Motorola Solutions’ unified technology ecosystem – from video security and analytics solutions to best-in-class network security to powerful new software and technology services like smart virtual assistants. But most importantly, with MOTOTRBO lon, your teams can stay connected across networks and devices.

Repairing/updating your existing radios is not only cost-effective but a faster option than ordering new equipment and fighting the supply chain issues we are all experiencing.
