First, the number of <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/products\/mobile-computers\/\">mobile devices<\/a><\/strong> shipped today (<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/products\/enterprise-tablets\/\">tablets<\/a><\/strong> and smart phones) is now far greater than the number of desktops and laptop computers sold.\u00a0 Second, the Android and iOS platforms have a stranglehold on the mobile market.<\/p>\n<p>Android is also making it easier and more convenient for customers to transfer their Outlook accounts and other apps to Android with cross-platform availability and software migration.\u00a0 Users opting for Android can choose between the familiar Microsoft Outlook apps or instead opt for Google Apps.\u00a0 Google and Android have four options for supporting Google Apps which come bundled with all Android platforms so regardless of your choice, Google and Android have the solution for you.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Stay Ahead of Your Competition With Enterprise Technology<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Through the combination of Bar Code Direct and Zebra support, you\u2019ll have access to the latest <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/products\/\">wireless enterprise technology<\/a><\/strong> to outfit your company, giving you a leg-up on your competition.\u00a0 The process of transitioning old devices on legacy operating systems has never been easier making now as good a time as ever to take advantage of industry-leading wireless technology which will help guide you through from planning and design through implementation and deployment and beyond that for all your support needs.\u00a0 Don\u2019t fall behind with your competition leaving you to play catch-up by letting Bar Code Direct help set you up with the technology you need to stay ahead of the pack for years to come.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/contact\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1292\" src=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/app\/uploads\/2016\/12\/barcode-cta-banner-supply-v2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"818\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/barcode-cta-banner-supply-v2.png 818w, http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/barcode-cta-banner-supply-v2-150x50.png 150w, http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/barcode-cta-banner-supply-v2-300x100.png 300w, http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/barcode-cta-banner-supply-v2-768x255.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 818px) 100vw, 818px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Until recently, enterprise mobility revolved around Microsoft and its Windows Embedded CE or Windows-Mobile operating system.\u00a0 That\u2019s all changing now &hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"> <a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/158.106.137.214\/~bridgetb\/android-the-new-king-of-enterprise-wireless\/\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Android: The New King of Enterprise Wireless<\/span> Read More \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1048,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wpupg_custom_link":[],"wpupg_custom_link_behaviour":[],"wpupg_custom_image":[],"wpupg_custom_image_id":[],"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":""},"categories":[151],"tags":[24,25,29,27],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.5.1 -
