Do fitness devices boost WFH productivity?

Plume IQ

The pandemic has fuelled an unprecedented work-from-home era, and in some Plume-powered households, we’ve seen a peak increase of over 120% in network-based activity during the working day. This month, we analyzed data usage patterns for key device types to reveal some interesting trends:

  • In the morning, laptop usage surges following a peak in fitness bike usage: Fitness bikes show a dual peak usage profile, closely mirroring the start and the end to the normal working day. However, in the morning laptop data usage really starts to soar after the peak in fitness bike usage as people become more productive.
  • Huge variation in laptop usage: During the daytime when laptops are being used for work-based productivity, upload usage closely mirrors download usage. However, in the evening upload usage falls away rapidly while download usage surges, indicating a change to video consumption.
  • **Smartphone usage is flat during the day:**This indicates that people are prioritizing their laptops for work-based productivity. However, early morning and late night peaks in smartphone data consumption point to high usage ofbothupload- and download-heavy applications such as social media.
