Recent studies indicate a growing number of organizations -- over 75 percent -- are placing increased priority on enabling a mobile workforce, including remote access to business-critical data and applications. Today, almost ninety percent of the top 100 companies in the US offer telecommuting as a way to increase personal productivity and job satisfaction. The extension of mobile access to business applications translates to improved decision making, faster access to critical business data and ultimately, better bottom lines.
Interwoven WorkSite Mobility enables users to access client files, collaborate with colleagues, manage email, and share information with clients through their smart phones. Interwoven WorkSite Mobility provides a fluid user experience that helps professionals locate and access the right content quickly for on-the-fly client interactions. Using a Web-based browser across all devices allows firms to maintain proper data hygiene and governance firm wide.
The smart phone market is rapidly developing to include a myriad of choices for the mobile professional. In the last quarter of 2007, sales of smart phones increased by 163 percent over the year before in the US. By providing anytime, anywhere access to business content through any mobile device, Interwoven WorkSite Mobility can play a pivotal role in an organization's mobility strategy.
"What's most important to us is that we now have a reliable way of retaining information relating to a matter in the one place," said David Kelly, director of Information Systems at Morrison Cohen LLP. "People in our firm spend much of their working time away from their desks, so a centralized electronic matter file just wasn't practical without smart phone integration. We chose Interwoven WorkSite Mobility because it enables our attorneys to locate, access, and file the right content immediately regardless of where they are located."
