Half of the employees at the small and medium-sized businesses that the company supports use smartphones to access their email. This is in contrast to a recent survey Intermedia conducted with Harris Interactive, which found that only 38 percent of small and medium-sized business workers use smartphones. Cloud-based email users are more likely to access email from smartphones because of specifically-designed email syncing capabilities that mirror the desktop email experience.
Other interesting smartphone stats from Intermedia's small and medium-sized customer-base include:
-- iPhone users are the "most chatty," sending more outgoing messages on average per day than BlackBerry or Android users.
-- Android users are the "most popular," receiving more overall messages on average per day than BlackBerry or iPhone users.
-- Roughly 95 percent of the companies that Intermedia supports have at least one smartphone activated.
-- Most users, 75 percent, choose Active Sync-based devices including the iPhone and Android.
About the survey: Statistics were determined by measuring Intermedia's overall network traffic. No specific user or account action/email was reviewed. The Harris Interactive survey was conducted online within the United States on behalf of Intermedia from June 3-7, 2010 among 2,071 adults ages 18 and older. This online survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no estimate of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.
