Enterprise mobility management (EMM)  is a device- and platform-agnostic solution that centralizes the management, configuration and security of all devices in an organization, both BYO and corporate-owned. EMM goes beyond traditional device management to include the management and configuration of enterprise apps and content.

A comprehensive EMM solution will include MDM , MAM , mobile content management (MCM) , identity management  for access control, and productivity apps  for easy access to corporate email, calendar, contacts, content repositories and intranet sites. When done right, an EMM solution should supply both the technical capabilities to simplify management and security for IT as well as a pleasant user experience for the employee.

Mobile device management (MDM)  is a device lifecycle management technology that enables IT to deploy, configure, manage, support and secure mobile devices through MDM profiles installed on the devices. MDM software provides asset inventory, over-the- air configuration of email, apps and Wi-Fi, remote troubleshooting, and remote lock and wipe capabilities to secure the device and the enterprise data on it. MDM is the foundation of a comprehensive enterprise mobility management (EMM)  solution.

Unified endpoint management (UEM)  enables IT to stop using separate tools to manage mobile, desktop and now Internet of Things (IoT) devices. UEM solutions provide a holistic and user-centric approach to managing all endpoints by combining traditional client management of desktop and PC systems with a modern enterprise mobility management (EMM) framework. A comprehensive UEM solution will enable IT to manage users and deliver a consistent experience across all endpoints, secure and manage the full device lifecycle, and do it all in a single, comprehensive platform.

Digital employee experience is the combination of the experiences provided to the employee through an integrated digital workspace hub, and the experience management solutions provided to IT to measure, correlate, and remediate experience issues, underpinned by AI. VMware offers an extremely comprehensive digital employee experience solution including Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub, Digital Employee Experience Management, and Workspace ONE Assist.

Bring your own device (BYOD)  is an IT policy that allows employees to use their personal devices for work purposes. EMM platforms enable organizations to implement a BYOD strategy without sacrificing security or employee privacy by providing separation of work and personal data on the device. This separation allows IT to manage and secure only the work data on an employee-owned device. If a device is ever compromised or when an employee leaves the company, IT is able to remove only the work-related data, leaving the personal items on the device intact.

After a successful technology roll out, you will need to explain to users the benefits that Workspace ONE brings to them, to ensure they engage enthusiastically. You want to empower your users to make the most of the new tool and become proficient using it.
