ICT penetration in companies
En las microempresas la penetración total del teléfono móvil ha experimentado mayor crecimiento respecto al ejercicio anterior, ya que ha pasado del 72,4% en 2012 al 74,6% en 2013. Una vez más la penetración media del teléfono móvil supera a la del ordenador, convirtiéndose en el dispositivo de referencia en las empresas de menor tamaño.
Thanks :)

I believe this is essentially what it is trying to say

| Yes, it is... I just wondered if there was an equally fancy way of saying it, lol :D |

standard device
Ten years later, cassette tapes became the ***standard device*** for listening music.

When the fax machine hit the big time in the mid-1980s, it quickly became the ***standard device*** for transmitting and receiving documents.

Especially with GPS which has became the ***standard device*** in modern cars.

: de referencia tends to be a bitch to translate but I think this is probably the nearest to the meaning, although with the word standard having one if its less common meanings.// I think I might say 'standard of devices' to get the actual meaning across.

a must-have
I think 'dispositivo' is redundant - we all know that a phone is a device. I would say "which is becoming a must-have for small businesses".
I'm surprised the figure is so low - I would have thought it was close to 100%. Maybe this is a developing country they're talking about.
