A lot of businesses are looking ahead and have found that not only will providing their employees with proper smartphones be useful, but that giving them tablets to work with can also be conducive to efficient workflow. This is never more evident than in companies that need to have employees out on the field, in their stores, or going door-to-door. This isn’t just because the tablet is like an even more mobile and portable laptop, but also because of the myriad of things that it could do more efficiently compare to a tiny smartphone.

What the Tablet Can Do

The tablet can keep employees in touch. For example, making use of an app from a voip service provider (RingCentral, for instance, has a downloadable app for the iOS and the Android just for this purpose) allows employees to communicate via the internet, and even set up an organized network of contacts that they can send calls, messages, emails, and even online faxes. This is extremely useful for people who might be working door to door, giving them the ability to send out information to home base almost immediately.

The tablet also allows them to receive, create, and present documents, presentations, spreadsheets and other forms of data for their customers and fellow employees. Tablets often have cameras built in to them, and real time video conferencing can be done from almost everywhere.

The Mini’s Potential

The iPad Mini is one of Apple’s latest releases. It is basically what it sounds like—the smaller version of the iPad. While it doesn’t quite perform like the latest incarnation of the iPad, many gadgetry experts have already lauded it for its capabilities which are at least comparable to the iPad 2.

This, in itself, is quite a feat considering its smaller size. It also naturally has access to the treasure trove of apps that Apple has provided in its app store. Because it’s smaller, it’s also cheaper. Not by very much (many people consider the iPad Mini to be on the pricey side for a ‘mini’ tab at 7 inches), but certainly cheaper. And for the performance you get, it’s certainly worth considering.

Experts believe that the capabilities, the availability of apps, the price, and its size will be a great combination; so much so that companies in Retail, Customer Service, and Industrial areas will be able to appreciate and possibly integrate it with their day to day work. The price isn’t even that much of a hindrance when you consider what it can do, especially since if it is ordered in bulk, it will still cost significantly less than a bulk order of of full size iPads.

One of the biggest advantages as well is that regardless of the software system it is plugged to, the iPad Mini can function. The company will not have to change OSes throughout their company just to accommodate its use. All existing apps that could fit the iPad can be used on the Mini as well, so there’s no doubt that the Mini and all its advantages are ripe for the use of businesses.
