Whether or not YOD will actually be able to take its place in the workplace as predicted by the Gartner Company, will largely depend on how these devices are developed and created in the near future.

If BYOD is ever able to grow to the capacity that Gartner suggested will really depend on the capacity these devices have to grow or the development of peripheral features or the creation of hybrid devices capable of greater workloads.
