Challenges of a Cross-platform Footprint

• Secure, centralized accessibility to business critical applications for employees regardless of device choice

• Maintaining control of corporate data while allowing multi-platform options

• Lack of internal resources for centralized management of minority hardware footprint

• Time investments to support dual-desktops

• Budget constraints

“Despite issues that come with the bring-your-own- device (BYOD) trend and consumerization of IT, these trends accelerate employee productivity, allow remote access to corporate data, and improves worker flexibility.”

-Trend Micro
