The rapid proliferation of mobile devices in the workplace is outpacing that of any previous technology, and enterprises are moving quickly to address this trend. IT departments are dealing with an explosion of mobile data, application costs, data privacy, and IP protection. As with previous technologies, this new wave of technology must be enabled, secured, and managed to maximize business agility and employee productivity.
Symantec Mobile Management 7.1 helps enterprises confidently enable this new mobile productivity by facilitating scalable, secure, and integrated smartphone and tablet deployments. Mobile Management provides comprehensive visibility and control over all the popular mobile devices such as iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows Phone, Symbian, and BlackBerry.
Core Functionality
Mobile Management 7.1 addresses the three core areas of functionality that should be integral to any comprehensive mobile management solution, in a process that is simple and efficient for both IT managers and mobile users:
- Enable the device for use in the corporate environment. This includes providing access to key corporate assets, like email, calendars, critical mobile applications, documents, and media content.
- Secure the device and the data that is stored on it and passes through it. Activate appropriate password and
access controls, and maintain separation of corporate data from personal data. - Manage all devices from a central location, with real-time access to inventory, configuration, and help desk functions. Manage 20,000 mobile devices and more from a single server. Built on a proven enterprise-scale platform and natively integrated with Altiris Client Management Suite.
