Short clip: iPhone in the enterprise?
At the Churchill Club's CIO Agenda, executives from Levi Strauss, Google, Hasbro, and McKesson discuss company policy around the Apple iPhone.
>> Iphone, thumbs up or thumbs down?
>> What's the question?
>> Right. What's the question?
>> The question is.
Laughter
>> Inaudible.
>> Personal or business category? Fundamentally, do you like it? Do you think it's a good thing to care about the importance of personal use? Yeah for annual OCIO.
>> OCIO?
>> Yeah.
Laughter
Clapping
>> For personal use.
>> Not much that matters.
>> Right so inaudible when your VP has come to you and say they want one and they support it what do you tell them?
>> Are they inaudible or are they business use?
>> Inaudible gets this, business use gets this.
Laughter
>>
Inaudible said no.
>> So we have a, Bill has a choice verses control ID strategy so people come to me every day and say can I have an Iphone and my answer is yes if you'll give me back your Blackberry. If you're willing to make that trade, done. If that's the inaudible, that you feel then so be it. I for example just gave Mike my Iphone.
>> He said no. He said we are not willing to invest in the infrastructure to support it yet.
>> But we have a very hard, we're not Google, we have a very strong standard on devices.
>> Right.
>> And I guess we fall in the same category, we do, we brought in Iphones for our ND because we're going to deliver content through the Iphone but we've made a strong statement that said Blackberry inaudible is our choice at this point in time and it fits the business so we have a little bit of this and a little bit of that.
>> Okay, that makes sense.
>> Remember it's only a matter of time.
>> It's coming, its good cause its sparking innovation right? We'll be able to get our inaudible.
>> It's right in that innovation track.
>> Remember I said we are trying to run IT as a business and business creates choice so we have a catalog of the services of IT that we offer to the company. We have twenty different cell phones in the catalog. We can go in and order the one you are allowed to have or that your manager approves. Iphones will likely end up in the catalog but their, other than being used as a phone they are the farthest thing from mainstream IT for a corporate Blackberry carrier that you could ever imagine.
