What is our main idea ?
Android devices are enough mature to start creating a working environment in Mobile Only strategy which means replacing PCs when they are not relevant.
Which leads to:
- Increased end users productivity
- Reduced business and IT costs
- Reduced carbon footprint
- Better attractiveness and digital modernity for end users

 

What we have achieved since 2021?

The 1st step of this long journey 
- An agile project method focusing on the end user, really
- A configuration designed, built and maintained WITH security officers from day 1.
- An end-to-end solution imagined for the last step.
- A 1st macro use case   frontline workers, focus on logistics and production

 

Just have a look on this video released in 2022, showing our fisrt production line in with our new digital workplace !

 

 

I hope you liked it! 2 years ago already…

 

 

What are our next steps ?

- An extension to other use cases.
- A pedagogy for the entire "Android OS" ecosystem: Employees, vendors, customers to foster activities & new stuff
- The pleasure of exchanging with you all.

Thanks for sharing @vincent!

 

It's naturally been a few years since you began this undertaking, how do the challenges you faced back then compare to now? We've had a few OS releases, many more models.. and even wider adoption of desktop modes (lenovo, moto to name just two (or is that technically one..)) 🙂

@jasonbayton we have noted a notable evolution of Samsung Dex since 2023 with an improved experience and a better interface of the most used applications, either by vendors or by the adaptation of our legacy applications.

We reach a point where we believe we can reach the next milestone soon.
