Mobile devices play a significant role in organizations. Employees use them to communicate, collaborate with teams, and access company resources, etc. Mobile devices are an essential tool for employees to get work done, regardless of whether employees are working in the office, hybrid, or remotely. IT admins must have the ability to support many employees using many different devices (including mobile). It’s part of their role and responsibilities, and is vital for IT compliance and security. 

There are over , making , owning more than 70% global market share and a commonly dominant share of the regions outside of North America (Statista, 2022). Given this popularity, it’s not surprising to find that many employees own and use Android mobile devices for their work and personal use.

Android offers many benefits to organizations and supports numerous use cases. There’s a device for every organizational requirement and every user profile, including:

  • Personal devices with a work profile that ensure employee privacy when personal usage is involved
  • Company-issued fully managed devices for knowledge base workers
  • Dedicated device solutions for single use cases such as POS devices, inventory tracking, and rugged handheld devices

Challenges IT Admins and MSPs Face

The market has limited choices for IT departments and managed service providers (MSPs) to manage bring-your-own-device (BYOD) scenarios. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) either rely on user self-regulation or periodic manual audits of sensitive resources. These approaches lack real-time visibility and control, and aren’t sustainable for SMEs as their workforces grow.

Many expensive point solutions aren’t well integrated with an organization’s identity, access, and device management stack. Unfortunately, any customized deployments would be costly to integrate and operationalize or lead to overlapping solutions.

Most IT admins want to securely manage their entire fleet of devices effectively and have the ability to support BYOD scenarios, regardless of the type of phone/tablet employees use. However, they must do this while ensuring end users comply with a company’s security and access policies. On the other hand, employees, who leverage their own devices as part of working remotely, want assurance that their personal data is not accessible or visible to the IT admin or the enterprise mobility management (EMM) solution. ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú enables seamless and secure BYOD and COPE (corporate-owned, personally enabled) mobile strategies.
