RIM Blackberry the Dominant Choice in the Corporate World

For those in the corporate world, it is the smart phones by Blackberry that seems to be the mobile phone of choice, according to recent data from ChangeWave, a company specializing in giving the latest trends based on surveys. Based on these surveys, three out of four participants said that they used the smart phone by Research in Motion as the smart phone for their company.

The percentage of users using RIM Smart Phones remains constant from the data collected from the previous year although its dominance in the market has already expanded over their arch rival Palm. In fact, the Palm Treo has experienced a point decline from their latest figures.

The corporate smart phone market has Apple being preferred by 5% of the users although the iPhone has garnered excellent ratings from satisfied customers. About 59% of their clients claim that their company gives a rating of “Very Satisfied” for the iPhone by Apple.

Conversely, the rating given for Blackberry is 47% for “Very Satisfied” which is seen to be a significant decline from previous surveys. But with the Palm Treo, they were able to get a rating of “Very Satisfied” of only 10%.

According to the ChangeWave Research founder and ChangeWave Investing editor, Tobin Smith, the growing and leading market share for RIM appears to be invincible although the significant decline of about 8 points in the satisfaction ratings for the Blackberry smart phones may mean future problems for them if they are not careful and do not heed its significance.

On looking at their second quarter, Research in Motion is seen to dominate the corporate world, with about 77% of companies preferring the Blackberry smart phones for use as their company phone. This is an increase of 3 points from the previous survey done last November. Next in line is Apple with an 11% share of companies choosing the Treo for their company phone. This is a decrease of 3 points from their previous figures. Palm, Samsung, and Motorola have also seen a decrease of about 2 points in planned corporate buying, with ratings of 8%, 4%, and 7% respectively, their lowest levels yet.
