Forget Enterprise Mobility Strategy – What About Mobility For The Strategic Enterprise?

Forget Enterprise Mobility Strategy – What About Mobility For The Strategic Enterprise? Here at the Enterprise Mobility Forum, the discussions almost invariably revolve around how organizations need to go about developing an enterprise mobility strategy.  We discuss device liability, mobile device management, mobile security and of course mobile enterprise applications….just to name a few of the usual topics.  As the enterprise mobility market evolves and matures, more [...]

Why Enterprise Mobility Planning Matters

Why Enterprise Mobility Planning Matters It’s a wonderful day today here in Boston.  Wonderfully sunny sky, high 80s and dry….and oh ya, there was a certain Cup from Lord Stanley of Preston that was awarded for the first time in 39 years to the mighty Boston Bruins.  Congratulations to the Bruins for the great win and also a hearty congratulations [...]

HTML5 Is Not (Yet) a Panacea For Mobile Enterprise Applications

HTML5 Is Not (Yet) a Panacea For Mobile Enterprise Applications Today is a good morning here in Boston.  The mighty Bruins have tied up the Stanley Cup Playoffs with another decisive win against the Vancouver Canucks.  I maintain the theory I tweeted that the winner of the Cup should be decided based upon the total goals accumulated during the seven game series.  I think some [...]

Recapping The Mobile Device Management and Security Session at Interop

Recapping The Mobile Device Management and Security Session at Interop I hate red-eye flights home from Las Vegas.  As I get older, there’s a real reason why it’s called a red-eye.  The flight home, your typical jam packed flight where we humans impersonate sardines, had its own uniqueness that is probably not appropriate to share on this site.  But in any case, another week, and [...]

Making The (Internal) Case For Mobile Applications

Making The (Internal) Case For Mobile Applications Following the very diverse sets of social inter-spheres available to us (it never ceases to amaze me how there are so many ways of finding and accessing information in this day and age), I came across this interesting article on the BBC web site “Does your firm need its own mobile app?” Half way down [...]

CTIA Wireless 2011: The Enterprise Mobility Perspective

CTIA Wireless 2011: The Enterprise Mobility Perspective I blinked on Monday morning and here we are now at the end of Friday.  I spent the majority of the week with thousands of my closest friends at CTIA Wireless in Orlando.  There appeared to be strong activity on the show floor, but candidly, as is the case with most shows, I was in [...]

Managing Enterprise Mobility in Europe

Managing Enterprise Mobility in Europe Hello from beautiful Amsterdam.  Today, I spent the day at the iCE Amsertdam event to talk about how organizations need to think about deploying their enterprise mobility strategy – and in this case, within Europe, as opposed to the traditional North American view on life. Here’s an interesting anecdote for you – perhaps even an [...]

So What Exactly Is Mobility?

So What Exactly Is Mobility? Hello from rainy Orlando.  No complaints here though – it’s only 40 degrees warmer than in Boston.  I’m here today for Enterprise Connect – the conference formerly known as VoiceCon (anyone get the Prince reference?).  In any case, I attended this morning a “Coffee Session” on mobility and UC (Unified Communications).  The moderator started off [...]

Does the iPad Really Enhance Productivity?

Does the iPad Really Enhance Productivity? As we continue down the long and convoluted journey of enterprise mobility, we often here talk about mobility management.  I still believe that managing the mobile implementations within (and increasingly beyond) the workplace is critical, but I also like to occasionally take a step back and see how we can take a broader perspective on [...]
