A few years ago, when an employer told an employee that they’ll be given a work phone, that usually meant the company would be purchasing a mobile phone and all its accessories, a cellular plan, and SIM card for you to use. While that’s still true today, there’s actually another way of providing you with connectivity without even buying a new device. This is where eSIM comes in. Ever since its introduction, eSIM has been poised to revolutionize a mobile workforce with all of its applications. But how exactly is that possible? Let’s look at the benefits of using eSIM for your business.
As mentioned earlier, eSIM has the ability to provide connectivity and communications without the need to purchase additional hardware or visit a retail location to make it work. As long as the employee has an unlocked phone with eSIM support, they can connect their device to any carrier network that your company prefers. An unlocked phone just means a device that’s not exclusively “locked” with a specific carrier.
Having a programmable eSIM on any mobile device allows businesses to give their employees the option to switch to a network of their choice without having to provide a new phone for them. That saves on costs, and your employee won’t have to worry about owning another mobile phone just to use at work.
Of course, eSIM technology allows you to have internet access just as a regular SIM card can. It has become an essential part of our daily lives, especially for professionals who are always on the go. But what makes it even better is that almost any electronic device with an eSIM installed can have access to data plans and the internet. From cars and smartwatches to music players and smart appliances, any device can practically be connected to the internet, allowing you to fully control them even remotely.
Having access to data plans whenever you need them or wherever you are is important, especially if you can do it with just about any device you use. This makes working while you travel so much easier and more convenient.
Gone are the days when a desk phone was needed to answer calls. While numerous online messaging services are available for that specific use, having an eSIM enabled device further eliminates the need to install a desk phone in the office. If your staff is tied down to a desk, it keeps them from working from home or on the go. That could easily affect their productivity, and it limits their choices on where they can work comfortably. In the age where working remotely has become the new normal, this is extremely beneficial for the company and for your employees. An eSIM enabled phone basically works as an extension or even a replacement of the traditional desk phone.
As eSIM applications continue to grow and become more mainstream, individuals, businesses, and organizations can benefit from its many features. The benefits listed here are only the tip of the iceberg. As the development of eSIM technology continues, more innovations are sure to come.
