10. A Better Story
Sunday morning. User decides to finally go buy that
iPad. Installs your MDM app, logs in using his or her
network credentials. Gets email account
provisioned, including contacts and calendar. Apps get
pushed that gives them access to all of their files (think
“Dropbox for the Enterprise”) and all of their network
printers, so they can print from anywhere. Also gets any
additional corporate apps delivered, as well as security
settings for the device.
And IT? They’re at home with family; it’s Sunday
morning, remember?
