There’s a reason why the number of companies that utilize multiple automated mobility management (MDM) technologies has increased over 55 percent in the last three years. Companies have realized that automated processes boost work efficiency and business productivity. Increased efficiency and productivity, in turn, improve profits and present businesses with better ways to achieve their goals at a lower cost.
Benefits Business Organizations
The long and short of things is that businesses benefit from automating mobility management. From assets such as smartphones and handheld devices to larger items such as computers, mobility management allows businesses to manage multiple devices simultaneously by monitoring their activity. It also handles connectivity and data usage, which, in turn, reduces mobility costs.
With mobility management, it is now possible to automate the management of all of the business’s mobility processes. Many solutions offer various benefits including faster provision of mobility services, ease in monitoring telecoms billing, and reduced overhead and other operational costs.
An Automated Approach to Data Loss and Its Prevention
Automating mobility management has various ways of preventing fraudulent activity across mobile devices. One such feature works by shutting down a mobile device when the SIM card is removed without prior authorization. It also shuts down further use and access of the SIM card from a different device. This effectively disables the mobile device and protects the confidentiality of business data and other important information. Preventing data loss and leaks is a vital, yet difficult, task. Mobility management works to preserve data integrity and makes sure that data and device access is kept between authorized personnel.
Self-Service Management Right At Your Fingertips
Mobility Management systems facilitate self-service management. It can make it easy and automated to add features to multiple mobile devices, swap SIM cards, view data usage, and enable employees to perform several offline tasks. Mobility management also taps into self-serve management landscapes that make managing several devices at one time a breeze. This is an invaluable tool in an administrator’s toolkit. By using mobility management, administrators do not have to worry about remote personnel not having support for these functions. If remote staff encounter a problem, they will not need to go into the physical office to have their issue resolved; instead, they make contact with designated company specialists who resolve the conflict using the system. This results in savings and efficiency while keeping staff on the road and working.
Real-Time Views of Charges and Usage
Due to the nature of billing cycles, it can be weeks or months before management is able to reconcile and assess data usage amongst employees. This can lead to some costly errors that are difficult to resolve because they occurred too long ago. With an automated mobility management approach, it is now possible to track mobile business devices in real-time. Monitoring is easy with the automated system, and mobile devices can even be restricted once the usage limits are reached.
The numbers don’t lie: businesses are fast recognizing the benefits of the automation of mobility management. Preset, programmed tasks help streamline operations, enabling people to continue doing their jobs without the need for tech support intervention. Automation helps business owners focus on core business operations and utilize automation to the fullest, which can save administrators significant time and money in the long run.
