Unified Endpoint Management: The Convergence of Enterprise Requirements for Supporting PCs and Mobile Devices
Abstract: The broad adoption of mobile devices in the performance of business tasks has fundamentally altered the IT requirements for ensuring employee productivity. Users now demand access to critical business application at any time, at any location, and on any device. Unified endpoint management solutions deliver common IT services to multiple devices securely and with minimal administrative effort. To help identify the IT services that are most advantaged by a unified management process, EMA performed primary, survey-based research involving more than 500 business professionals that actively use smartphones, tablets, laptops, and/or desktop PCs. In this EMA research report, key findings on each device platform are compared, including current and future device adoption, device application uses, practices in data loss prevention, security and compliance, desktop virtualization, and the breadth of enterprise support provided. |
