1. The Challenges
VMware Workspace Suite
The Journey to Business Mobility
via Workspace Suite
Security – connecting personal devices to the corporate
network opens that network up to malware, viruses and other
threats, inadvertent release of IP.
Management and Control - IT needs visibility into the hardware
employees are connecting to the network, as well as visibility
around the access to and use of enterprise applications and services.
Professionalism — Employees may not properly represent the
company and its image, making it seem as though the company
does not have an enterprise-grade system to manage such
interactions, reflecting poorly on its financial status or
technical savvy.
Productivity — Employees’ phones and tablets can be a
distraction. It’s up to IT to look for ways to leverage them to
increase productivity and performance.
Business mobility is the core of innovation for businesses
today, giving organizations the power to compete more
aggressively, increase the effectiveness of employees
and connect with customers in ways that were previously
impossible. Users expect to use a growing portfolio of devices to
access any application, or data, at any time.
