The financial sector is taking the lead in iPad adoption, according to a new Good Technology report.
Among the top 10 industry verticals covered by the research, financial services continued to see the highest level of iPad activation, accounting for nearly half of net iPad activations by industry (46 per cent) - more than tripling the amount of activation in any other industry.
"In the second quarter of 2011, the most striking thing is our users activated more iPad tablets than Android smartphones and tablets combined," says John Herrema, senior vice president of corporate strategy at Good Technology. "While Android may be gaining smartphone market share with consumers, our business users are clearly gravitating to the iPad and doing so in large numbers. This is especially true in the financial services sector, which drove nearly half of all Good's iPad activations over the quarter."
