Taming Mobile App Chaos for Businesses & End Users: The Next Generation of Mobile Application Management

Though smartphones, tablets and other devices continue to dominate the spotlight, the real stars of the next phase of the enterprise mobility evolution will be mobile apps. The introduction of innovative mobile apps and the mobilization of business processes will play leading roles in assisting enterprises of all sizes in realizing their enterprise mobility ambitions. To keep those plans on track, though, enterprises will need to adopt a mobile application management (MAM) strategy that gives IT the oversight to safeguard corporate data and end users the freedom and flexibility to ascend to new levels of productivity.

A next-generation MAM strategy, tightly integrated into an overall Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solution, is a core requirement of organizations focused on maximizing the business-transforming benefits of enterprise mobility.

THE CIO’S GUIDE: To Enterprise Mobility Management

CIOs make tough decisions every day. To make the right ones, you have to trust your sources and be confident that you’re prioritizing the right issues.

Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) is top of mind for most CIOs today, not just because of BYOD and COPE (Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled), but also because of the clear opportunity that mobility presents to boost productivity, customer engagement, job satisfaction and more.

The Critical Role of Support: In Your Enterprise Mobility Management Strategy

Support is an essential element of any Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) strategy. In the emerging EMM market, where different flavors of support are being offered by a variety of vendors with vastly different levels of expertise, integrating the right support into your EMM solution will maximize your mobility uptime, help to preserve business continuity and strengthen customer faith in your ability to deliver on your promises.

With the increasing acceptance of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) in the enterprise, it’smore important than ever for your support partner to effectively cover your entire mobile environment, across all platforms. And it’s critical to select a strategic partner who will be there to support you before your deployment, while it’s underway and long afterward.

The Secret Ingredient in Mobile ROI: Why Security is Paramount in EMM

If you’re in IT, whatever your role or seniority level, you know that security matters in Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM). And you don’t need another reminder: they spring up every time you catch up on industry news.

Another breach. Another hack. Another brand struggling to minimize the damage. You hope it never happens on your watch. But hope isn’t enough, so you work hard to make sure.

Uw Online Business naar de Cloud verplaatsen: Sleutelfactoren in Online Succes

Elk slim bedrijf heeft tegenwoordig een uitgebreide online aanwezigheid. Behalve een vereiste website, bieden veel bedrijven hun werknemers, zakenpartners en klanten online toegang tot applicaties, systemen en data.

De IT-infrastructuur die deze online aanwezigheid ondersteunt, verschuift momenteel van traditionele eigen systemen naar Cloud-gebaseerde oplossingen. Cloud providers hebben meer internetbandbreedte dan de meeste bedrijven. Bovendien isoleren ze internet transacties van het bedrijfsnetwerk, en voorkomen overbelasting van routers en switches met data die daar niet nodig is. Daarom is het selecteren van een goede Cloud provider cruciaal.

Bringing Your Online Business to the Cloud: Key Factors in Online Success

Today, every savvy company has embraced an extensive online presence. Beyond the required web site, many businesses routinely provide their employees, business partners, and customers with online access to applications, systems, and data.

Increasingly, the IT infrastructure that supports these online business efforts is shifting from traditional on-premises to Cloud-based solutions. Cloud providers have more Internet bandwidth than most businesses, and additionally isolate Internet transactions from the corporate network instead of clogging on-premises routers and switches with data that needn't be there in the first place. As such, selection of a suitable Cloud provider is critical.
