It’s Time to Incorporate Mobile Device Management Solution

Ever wonder why each year organizations who has medium to large sales or field force has to bear a substantial amount of expenditure on handheld mobile devices for maintenance and for purchasing new ones to replace the faulty ones. Those who are directly associated with the business know why. Just look at the below aspects where an ideal organization goes to procure handheld mobile devices to manage their field or sales force considering:

  • They want a device with a good configuration so that their desired application would run smoothly
  • They want a good battery life from the devices as thisis very essential so that in one single charge, their field force or sales representatives can use the device the whole day without any hassle
  • Most importantly they want desired longevity from their purchased devices

Considering the above scenario in real life let's look at some of the aspects which hinder the required expectation from those procured devices:

  • Because the authority cannot restrict users to use which applications and which they can’t, as a result, their users download various applications related to social media extending to various games
  • In many cases, as the end user are not that tech-savvy, they often download the app or relevant content that contains various viruses and other malicious components
  • This makes a huge impact not only on their data security but also on the expected longevity of those procured devices.
  • While purchasing the devices organization sets the desired configuration such as processor, RAM, battery, etc. based on their application requirement. But once a user starts using heavy third party applications that pressurize the existing configuration results device has throttling issues and eventually makes the device run slow. Ultimately the longevity of the devices decreases because of the uncontrollable usage.

In both of the scenariosillustrated above organization wants to have control of everything related to their purchased devices otherwise they need to carry additional expenditure for device maintenance and in many cases, they need to procure new devices as the existing one gets expired before their expected service timeline.
