Please note that the content on this page is retired. This content is not maintained and may contain information or links that are out of date.Not having a plan for implementing EMM causes:
- Siloed management of mobility within the organization, resulting in wasted resources.
- Improper selection of a vendor for short and long-term sustainability.
- Lack of adoption by end users, rendering EMM useless.
- An inefficient help desk when dealing with mobile issues.
Having a well thought-out plan for implementing EMM results in:
- A consolidated mobile management strategy that covers all aspects of your mobile landscape.
- Proper selection of an EMM vendor that suits the current and future needs of your organization.
- Proper IT and help desk training to ensure optimal use of EMM.
- Increased end-user adoption and acceptance of new mobile policies.
