The UEM approach has three core elements – endpoint security, endpoint management and software lifecycle automation and it costs on average $7,000 per year, per endpoint, to provide endpoint security. VMware claims that their our approach can save companies between 15-30% on that $7,000 figure
US-based software company VMware has announced a new unified endpoint management approach for managing Windows 10, along with advancements to VMware Horizon and VMware Workspace ONE during the second day of the VMworld 2016 conference in Las Vegas.
According to company officials, the new announcements and advancements would help industry in addressing the challenge of supporting workforce that demands anytime, anywhere access to all applications from any device.
VMware says, the evolution of client-server applications to cloud and mobile applications is challenging businesses everywhere. With the added complication of the consumerisation of endpoints, companies are adopting digital workspaces for a simplified approach for managing, delivering and consuming applications from the cloud.
With businesses transitioning to Windows 10 and its mobile focused platform, the challenge of scaling Windows 10 desktops and applications, supporting legacy applications, and integrating an ever-expanding ecosystem of mobile applications used by mobile devices, will further the need for a secure digital workspace as the solution, informs the company.
“We believe there is an incredible opportunity to push identity-driven secure digital workspaces for the delivery of any app on any device, especially as businesses shift to Windows 10 and increasingly offer cloud-based productivity suites such as Office 365 to employees,” said Sanjay Poonen, executive vice president and general manager, End-User Computing and head of global marketing and communications, VMware, adding that VMware will offer comprehensive unified endpoint management and security technology for mobile and desktop management.
According to Poonen, UEM approach has three core elements – endpoint security, endpoint management and software lifecycle automation. It costs on average $7,000 per year, per endpoint, to provide endpoint security. He said, “our approach can save companies between 15-30% on that $7,000 figure.”
