Key Challenges of Managing Enterprise Mobility

Fragmented
Ecosystem

Supporting mobile devices is complex due to the growing and fragmented ecosystem of service providers required to manage each end-user. Each service provider comes with its own set of tools and processes solely focused on their piece of the delivery. It is challenging for IT to manage.

Siloed
Data

The ever-growing proliferation of devices leads to an abundance of data that is scattered across different locations, silos, and management system. Enterprises struggle to find the source of truth for device, service and expense data.

Negative
User Experience

Decentralized or complex device procurement experiences lead to dissatisfied end users combined with the confusion about where to go to get help within the organization. The lack of timely and proactive communications to end users about order status or their requests to move, add, change, disconnect services – leads to increased calls to help desk to answer basic questions.
