Track, Monitor and Manage All Your Mobile Devices All the Time
In just a few short years, supporting mobile devices—everything from Blackberrys to ruggedized handheld computers to Smartphones—has gone from being a niche aspect of IT support to a mission-critical function.Until AirWatch, no one solution could adequately support mobile users and their myriad of devices—iPhones, Blackberrys, Smartphones, mobile computers, mobile printers and more. Subsequently, help desks could not provide mobile users a support experience that PC users have enjoyed for years.
Now, all that’s changed. With AirWatch, you have a functionally robust solution supporting all your mobile devices in real time. Not just some manufacturers’ devices. Not just 802.11 mobile devices. Not just cellular devices. Not just Windows Mobile devices but ALL your mobile devices all of the time simultaneously.
