Increasing work-on-the-go culture and Bring your Own Device (BYOD) is one of the major factors that are fuelling the growth of smart and connected offices market. Now-a-days business enterprises are promoting the use of mobile devices so as to permit employees in carrying out various tasks such as accessing emails and managing official documents while on the move. This enhances employee satisfaction rate and increases productivity. The smart and connected offices concept is able to integrate such devices and provides real-time data for faster decision making. Stiff competition among the companies to adopt high innovation concepts is another factor contributing the growth of smart and connected offices market. To be competitively ahead, many companies are adopting the concept of smart and connected offices to respond to the needs of employees and keep a track of them. The proliferation of the internet economy with increasing bandwidths has further contributed to the smart offices concept by integrating smart phones and tablets for efficiently carrying out different tasks.

However, one of the major restraints affecting the growth of smart and connected offices concept is the security risks that are associated with hand-held devices. There is a high possibility of unauthorized access where the users enter without abiding by the company policies and procedures. Another restraint is that such concepts are associated with huge financial investments. When business organizations invest in such technologies, they expect a considerable amount of returns. In some cases the returns are not fully realized due to the unwillingness of the employees to adapt to such systems. Since smart offices are a long term investment, smaller business organizations are reluctant to initiate such investments.
