Mobile Device Management (MDM) is important for any business with many mobile devices. Businesses need to have app control on mobile devices, and MDM software enables them to enforce access control and allowed application policies.

We live in the age of smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices. These smartphones and tablets are not just part of our personal lives, it’s pervading the professional arena as well.

With trends like BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) getting popular, corporates and organizations worldwide are encouraging their workforce to make use of their personal devices at work as well…for work!

Personal mobile devices being allowed to connect to the corporate organization network could complicate things unless it’s managed well. It could pose a big risk to the data that’s stored on the corporate network or transmitted through the network. The personal devices- the mobile phones, the smartphones etc that are used for work- need to be secured. It’s here that MDM (Mobile Device Management) comes in.

Businesses need to have app control on mobile devices, and MDM software enables them to enforce access control and allowed application policies. Encryption and data management policies are important elements in securing business data.

An MDM software usually is very easy to install and use; it’s not in any way complicated. The features of most MDM software are planned in such a manner that installation and consequent use of the software happen to be as less complicated as possible.

It’s Cost Effective

For any small business, it’s not commercially viable to have a full-fledged IT department taking care of, among other things, Mobile Device Management. Thus investing on having an MDM software could be a wise option for any small to medium size businesses. The choice has to be made based on the requirements and the budget.
