How much time does a new smartphone cost you?

Jan 8, 2021 | Hardware

Have you recently gotten a new smartphone as a Christmas gift or have you gifted one yourself? Then you know the hassle that comes with setting up this new device. Our time is precious and valuable, and that is where mobco comes into play.

In 2010 the apple iPad was released into the market, a device that has penetrated every segment of the market. For many mobile employees this has become the only ‘computer’ they use. And getting those devices under control was a challenge, that was the start of mobco!

Getting a new device into production can easily take you half a day. We reduce this time to just 4 minutes without intervention from IT or the end user.  Mobco sets up an integration between the company network, cloud services and the management platform. This initial setup is what makes it possible to reduce the time needed to deploy your device into production. Not only for the initial devices, but for all future devices as well. Automating this platform will solve most issues itself, resulting into savings on the helpdesk!

A typical integration of a management platform only takes a couple of days. Which is a small investment that can be earned back fast rolling out new devices. But most important of all is the satisfaction of your employees. Everything works out-of-the-box and there are no annoying passwords.

 

This video shows just how quick your employee would be able to set up his/her own device. Without any intervention from the IT department.

 

Setting up a mobile workforce can be challenging, certainly if your organization is used to work from a traditional office location. Having the correct tools implemented, makes the move towards mobile work simpler. Employees use a lot of different systems and devices in their everyday work, and a remote workforce can only be empowered if these can be accessed from any location.

 

Since 2010 there has been a revolution in the management of mobile devices, in the meantime it has also become the standard for computers and laptops. This technology makes it possible to set up the devices automatically, without IT assistance, based on the user’s profile: email, calendar, contacts, business applications, wifi, network access, security … Everything is ready for use in minutes! No passwords required, no hassle!
