The Enterprise Mobility Forum Turns Two
You know the expression “Time flies when you’re having fun?” That’s exactly how I feel today. In fact, I hate to admit it, but I actually didn’t realize what today was until my wife pointed it out to me yesterday. Two year ago today, the Enterprise Mobility Forum came out of stealth mode with the [...] Mobile Office Apps – I Have One Simple Request
Mobile Only: Week 5 Spell check – is it too much to ask?! Seriously. I don’t feel like its a big request but perhaps it is. OK, so I admit it, I am a terrible speller. As far as I am concerned, the best feature in the history of computing is the red squiggly line [...] BYOD, The Secret Sauce
Site Note: We’d like to introduce you to Brian Katz. Brian is an EMF member who works at pharmaceutical giant Sanofi and has a great blog where he shares his thoughts on enterprise mobility. Brian has graciously allowed us to share those thoughts with you on this site. There are a lot of articles floating [...] Inside Looking Out: An Executive View on Enterprise Mobility with Naeem Zafar
It’s certainly been a while, but welcome back to the latest edition of Inside Looking Out. We had the opportunity to sit down last week with Naeem Zafar, CEO of Bitzer Mobile, an enterprise mobility solution provider that utilizes a secure, mobile app container to isolate corporate access and data. We covered a broad range [...] Confused About BYOD? It’s Not Your Fault
Please note my friends, that I will do my best to not turn today’s missive into a rant, but do forgive me if sometimes it may appear as one. I say this because I have spent the last couple of days immersed in several discussions around the matter, including with subject matter experts (e.g., industry [...] Mobility – The Skin That You’re In
Mobile Only: Week 4 When I first began this endeavor of working only from my smartphone, the experience was strange, unusual, and slow. Even with using a monitor, keyboard, and mouse I found it took extra time to complete tasks. I attributed this to years of executing tasks on the PC in the same manner, [...] To BYOD Or Not BYOD? That is The Enterprise Mobility Question
Hello from the beautiful land of windmills, and gouda cheese (and some other things that we don’t need to mention on this PG rated site). I’m here in Holland for the next couple of days spending some time with some enterprise mobility friends. The discussions so far have been unbelievably broad, but there was one [...] Working From ‘Phone’ – Beyond Disbelief
Mobile-Only: Week 2 “You are doing what?” “You are crazy.” “You won’t be able to pull off an entire year of work from your phone.” These are just a few of the ‘doubting Thomas’ responses (along with lots of positive ones) I received this past week since publicly announcing going mobile-only. These weren’t malicious responses, [...] An Open Letter To United States Representative Markey Re: The ‘‘Mobile Device Privacy Act’’
Representative Markey, My name is Philippe Winthrop and I am the Managing Director of The Enterprise Mobility Foundation (click here to see my bio on LinkedIn). The EMF is an independent (downtown) Boston-based think tank, whose sole mission is to evangelize best practices in terms of how organizations can reap the greatest benefits from deploying [...] Could The Legal System Be The Ultimate Downfall of BYOD?
I know, I know, the title of this missive could certainly be considered provocative. Some would say that it’s just meant to grab attention in the enterprise mobility space, but I know that those who know me know that I am truly asking this question if only to raise our collective awareness and thoughts regarding [...]
