Enterprise mobility 2020: Within the pandemic, UEM to the rescue
Enterprise mobility has had on a complete new meaning in the past several a few months. Working is among the most norm remotely, this means users are counting on a variety of apps and devices like nothing you’ve seen prior.
Some key questions for this leaders to take into account: What impact will be the changes due to the pandemic and resulting economic depression more likely to have on mobile technology in the years ahead? And how do enterprise mobility tools and strategies help organizations, both and over time now?
Accelerating UEM
One major mobility trend which will likely continue may be the rise of unified endpoint management (UEM), a strategic approach that unifies and centralizes the true way organizations manage their deployed devices, including phones, tablets, PCs and also Internet of Things (IoT) devices. It’s a logical extension of mobile management tools that started with mobile device management (MDM), incorporated mobile application management (MAM), and expanded through enterprise mobility management (EMM) platforms. UEM supplies a comprehensive method of managing devices in the enterprise.
Having more stay-at-home workers vastly, coupled with curtailed IT budgets, will accelerate the trend toward UEM, says Chris Silva, vice analyst and president at Gartner. The firm has revised its guidance round the importance and timing of UEM from the key program to take into account in 2020 to a project which should already be underway.
