It’s a simple, unavoidable truth. In the span of a little over a decade, mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets have become ubiquitous to our personal and professional lives. There is, however, a very big difference between managing them on a personal, individual level and doing so on a larger-scale enterprise level. It’s in that vast gray area that a number of troublesome myths have taken shape.
Like all myths, the pervasive misconceptions about enterprise managed mobility do have some basis in reality. Whatever your industry – be it Retail, Transportation & Logistics, or Manufacturing/Supply Chain – you’ve probably run into challenges in implementing effective enterprise mobility programs.
Perhaps you haven’t seen the return on investment that you had in mind when purchasing a suite of devices, apps and services for your employees. Keeping up with mobile technology trends and what makes the best fit for your enterprise needs can be overwhelming. Maybe you’ve tried to shift the support burden for a fleet of mobile devices to your already-overburdened IT department as they also deal with desktop, networking and security issues.
Worst of all, you may have simply convinced yourself that managed mobility cannot truly run, improve and grow your business. The common thread running through all of these “myths” is that enterprises encounter these issues when they take the DIY (do-it-yourself) route in creating an effective end-to-end mobility program for their employees.
Do any of these “myths” hold up when you entrust your mobility to a partner with the expertise, scalability and support to give you the “How” to your biggest mobility challenges?
Let’s answer that question.
