Google today announced that over 19,000 organizations are now either testing, deploying or using its Android for Work service.
Android for Work makes it easier and safer for businesses to allow their employees to bring their own Android devices to work. It separates business apps from personal apps. Thanks to this, the IT department still retains control of its data and apps, while the employee can still play Angry Birds on the device, too. This program, which Google first previewed at its I/O developer conference in 2014, officially launched in February of this year.
Of the 19,000 organizations Google says are working with Android for Work, it is unclear how many are just testing the service and how many have actually deployed it. Large enterprises don’t move fast, so my guess is there are far more businesses trialling Android for Work than actually using it, but this is still a pretty good number either way.
