I think the big thing too is lot of companies don't issue phones anymore, they expect people to use their personal. Before that, BES was a really good product and nobody else really has anything like that. The alternative is to setup pop3 accounts and redirect work mail to it, and it's kind of dirty as there is no central management. But it saves companies money so they don't care if it's a bigger pain for IT.
Lot of companies have gone to cloud hosted communication tools which offer central management.
And still a lot of companies issues phones. Probably even to a larger degree now that data breaches have become a big deal and the level of restrictions is not something people want to deal with. I know that the B2B accounts continue to add lines year over year.
