Recently at a certain CIO
discussion someone remarked that the growth of Enterprise Mobility is
accelerating at a higher pace than inflation. How true is that? Well, the fact
is it is completely true. In August I wrote a post on Enterprise Mobility wherein
I shared that 34% of the global workforce will adapt mobility However, recent Forrester Research predicts mobile workers will soon make
up 73% of the total global workforce. This is a huge number!
New Generation of Mobile Workforce
The employees of the millennial
generation are a mobile workforce regardless of their roles. They are globally
aware, technologically savvy people who prefer to work on the go. As we have
more powerful smart phones and better tablets, enterprise mobility is now fully
taking off. Our network bandwidth is quick becoming omnipresent and much faster.
This combination provides an ideal breeding ground for mobile business
applications for various purposes. Enterprises have woken up to the fact that
adapting Enterprise Mobile Solutions, has resulted in a 65% increased
productivity among the workforce. Many CXO’s are now driving decision making to the next level by
adapting to Enterprise Mobility.
It is no doubt that adaptation of
Enterprise Mobility has resulted in better employee connectivity, but it has also
thrown in challenges of managing them effectively. This is where an effective MDM Strategy and technology like Sybase
Afaria comes into play. The mobile device management takes care of
provisioning, securely managing the users, networks and devices. It plays a big
part in security and maintaining the data integrity in enterprises. A well
placed MDM strategy provides a platform to securely manage enterprises as well
as BYODs or personal devices of the employees in an efficient and cost
effective manner. Mobility Management enables CIO’s to determine an acceptable
setting for the adaption of an appropriate technology that fulfills both the security
and management requirements of enterprises.
It is indeed a challenge for
enterprises to implement the best in its class data security and create appropriate
policies to safeguard its sensitive proprietary information. The MDM lifecycle takes care of a broad
range of mobile devices right from provisioning to decommissioning the device.
The CIO’s are increasingly focusing on the best-practices of Mobility
Management in order to effectively handle a highly mobile workforce. KloudData’s
MDM solutions are based on secure platforms like Sybase Afaria and the company
aids both SME’s and large-scale enterprises, right from the drafting of policies
and education to the successful implementation and all support required thereafter.
SAP’s Syclo Apps are ready to
deploy Mobile Solutions and Apps which meet specific needs of diverse
industries. We at KloudData, have evolved an implementation methodology that
incorporates the best practices of MDM strategies for fast deployments and a
quicker ROI with better workforce management. We at KloudData, are going to
host a Webinar in this regard that showcases our mobility competency and a
brief introduction to Syclo Apps. We will also be joined by Bill Gough, Senior
Director, Mobility, SAP.
