I love them even though I don't use them myself. They let less technical members of my teams like content and interaction designers run apps in two clicks. Often they don't have admin rights on their computers to install the necessary tools so it eliminates that problem too.

I didn't even know about the admin rights (because I work in startups most people have local admin so I don't even think about it). That's great to find out!

Yeah I work in a team with a mix of contractors who BYOD and perm staff who use laptops provided to them.

The contractors have a huge productivity advantage out of the gate - modern hardware, any software, no mandatory VPN that blocks genuinely useful websites (MDN!).
