Mobility ROI Weekly - Week of September 26, 2011, Part 3

This week I will publish three Mobility ROI reports (this is 3/3), as I have a bunch of ROIs that I have saved up over the past few weeks but have not had time to share. The ROI (return on investment) report includes ROIs that I come across in my weekly research on the topic of enterprise mobility. My goal is to create an archive of mobility ROIs that we can all use. I hope you find this helpful.
