Mobile technology is a vital component of every fast-paced corporate environment, where it provides the foundation for flexibility, mobility, efficiency, and productivity. As mobile phones and devices have become the major means of communication at work, managing enterprise mobility and mobile data security can be a significant challenge for any IT department.

The volume and different types of data organisations manage in today’s digital world are rapidly increasing. This includes the growth of cloud-based applications, remote work and mobile device usage. 

While the uptake of these technologies and services is allowing for more agile and productive work, it also creates additional security risks.

As corporate telecoms environments become more complex with mobile and unified communications as well as 5G and SD-WAN deployments, effectively managing telecom expenses is a key component of competitive advantage. Taking a strategic view to optimise wireless, voice, and data services with Telecom Expense Management (TEM), companies can better control the costs and performance of the telecoms environment.

Equipping your team with the latest tech and devices can be a little more budget-friendly at this time of year, courtesy of end-of-financial-year deals. However, many companies fail to take advantage of attractive deals on devices and plans because they lack the capacity to handle the tasks involved in a mobile fleet refresh.
If this is the case in your company, think about handing these tasks to a managed services provider.

It was Benjamin Franklin who opined that death and taxes are the only certainties in life. This was around the time the American Constitution was ratified in 1788. Now, more than 230 years later, death and taxes continue as life’s certainties, but they are no longer alone. In the digital age, cybercrime is also a certainty.
