Conclusions

Organizations Can Do Better

The main takeaway from this research is that while organizations know the value of holistic endpoint management, most have yet to move to a single UEM platform and are juggling multiple solutions—meaning they're missing out on potential savings, better security, and increased efficiency.

This study aligns with past surveys by Stratix that show organizations often do not have holistic technology strategies across the board. Individual departments are often responsible for designing, procuring, deploying, and supporting their technology. That kind of siloed thinking negates opportunities for scale and can detract from greater strategic goals and nimbleness.

Because they're stuck in multi-platform endpoint management environments, organizations are not secure enough, are wasting resources, and are missing opportunities for cost savings along with cutting-edge solutions such as BYOD containerization and more.

It's well known that many IT teams are reluctant to outsource because of the perception of losing control or poor quality, but this research shows there's actually more of both when you have the expertise and accountability of a high-quality managed services provider. While it offers tremendous value, configuring a holistic UEM platform across such diverse endpoints as PCs, mobile devices, printers, and IoT requires specialized knowledge that many organizations lack. That's expertise that leading MSPs bring to the table.
