Report: BlackBerry Holds Huge Attraction for Enterprise
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by John Martellaro
In the enterprise, an astonishing 82 percent of corporate respondents planning to buy smartphones in Q3 will buy a BlackBerry, according to a report released by ChangeWave research on Thursday. That’s compared to just 13 percent for the iPhone. Palm is fading.
"Defying an otherwise weak IT spending environment, Research In Motion is continuing to blow away the competition -- expanding on its already vast share of the corporate smart phone market," Paul Carton wrote.

ChangeWave queried 2,049 people who are involved with IT spending in their organizations. In addition, the report noted that the percentage of respondents who favor the BlackBerry is steadily rising, up five points from the 77 percent in February 2007.
While Apple’s iPhone is climbing on this scale, now at 13 percent, it’s rising more slowly -- up only 2 percentage points from February 2007 to May 2008. Palm continues its steady decline and is now at 8 percent on this scale.
The report also looked at the softness in IT spending, but noted that the future looks good for RIM. "Research In Motion’s success in the smartphone market, however, remains one extraordinary bright spot in the IT economy. The BlackBerry smartphone maker appears likely to enjoy one of its best quarters ever," the report concluded.
