Mobile Device Management and Why It Could Be The Right Switch For Your Business

Need some assistance on improving your employees’ productivity? Mobile Device Management or “MDM” could be the answer. With flexible access to critical business data on nearly any device… while also protecting your own assets from security breaches… what could be better? MDM gives you the visibility into your diverse mobile inventory, enabling you to provision, manage and help secure specific business data and applications being accessed by users.

MDM functionality typically includes over-the-air distribution of applications, data and configuration settings for all types of mobile devices including: smartphones, tablet computers and multiple POS devices. These devices could be an individual’s personal possession, or one distributed by the organization. Today, consumer demand for BYOD or “Bring your own device” is requiring a much greater effort for MDM and increased security.

With efforts to control and protect the data and configuration settings for all mobile devices in an organization’s network, MDM has the ability to reduce support costs, and business risks. The main goal of MDM is to optimize the functionality and security of mobile communication networks while minimizing cost and downtime.

With the ability to secure, monitor, manage and support mobile devices – typically involving remote distribution of applications, data and configuration settings, MDM allows your employees to work from remotely anywhere at any time!

Whether you’re sitting on the beach, or enjoying a relaxing getaway, you can access all of your company’s data and files straight from your personal laptop or smartphone!

Don’t worry about a security breach, companies can benefit greatly from mobile device security when using MDM. For example, users can remotely lock mobile devices or completely erase sensitive company data from a lost, stolen, or broken device.

MDM technologies are ever-expanding, having grown up to 30% in midsize and large organizations within the past three years. Unfortunately, traditional IT management and policies just don’t apply today.
