Grudi Associates Now Offers Complete Mobile Device Management and Mobile Application Management to Help Businesses Get Control of their Mobile Devices
Harrisburg, PA (PRWEB) July 31, 2013 -- Grudi Associates is now offering businesses mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM) services that provide greater control of smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices. MDM and MAM provide an array of benefits throughout the entire lifecycles of the devices.
“Mobile device management and mobile application management are excellent solutions for businesses that rely on mobile devices," says Walt Grudi, President of Grudi Associates, a leading provider of telecom and IT services in Central PA and beyond. "They provide cost-saving control throughout the device lifecycle and put security measures in place that can dramatically reduce risk and add efficiency.”
Mobile device management is a system designed to ensure that mobile devices are secure, supported, properly maintained and monitored. The optimal system manages devices through their entire lifecycle, from provisioning, setup and activation through maintenance, updates and eventually recycling when their useful life has ended.
Mobile application management is the delivery and management of enterprise software for both business-owned and personal smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices. It includes software selection, provisioning, delivery, licensing, configuration, security, maintenance, tracking and policy enforcement. MAMs can ensure that each user has only authorized applications and access and enables IT staff to remotely wipe business mobile apps and data to prevent breaches when the device is lost, stolen or otherwise compromised.
“While today’s mobile devices empower staff to work more efficiently and get more done, wherever they are, they also put companies at risk of an array of mobile device-related threats," says Grudi. "MDM and MAM are very effective in addressing these risks.”
MDM and MAM solutions typically include:
• Deployment of Mobile Devices and Applications
• Security
• Monitoring
• Management
• Support
• Reporting
Key benefits include:
• Significantly greater security
• Loss prevention from compromised data and unauthorized network access
• Improved compliance with industry, agency and other requirements
• Increased efficiency by providing IT and other staff with an effective tool
• Cost savings from improved efficiency and device optimization
• Inventory control for efficiency and cost savings
• Improved management decision making
• Enhanced policy monitoring and enforcement
“While businesses can select from a variety of service options, a complete, integrated mobile device management and mobile application management solution is most effective," says Grudi. "A comprehensive approach best addresses key issues, the most important of which is security for most companies.”
Putting mobile device management and mobile application management in place requires careful planning and effective implementation. It is important to ensure that the process is seamless and well-understood by the business’s mobile users and support departments. If a company does not have the necessary in-house expertise, it is a good idea to get professional assistance.
