Reign of Enterprise Mobility Management at the Edge of Digital World
Empowering significant efficiency benefits, accompanying with security and management difficulties to organizations, Mobility has been always a hot topic in the IT Industry. IT organizations need to complete an exercise in careful balancing between enabling clients and looking after security. Employees bringing smart gadgets, for example, telephones, tablets and PCs into the workplace, which are neither claimed nor overseen by the organization. These kinds of gadgets posture both security and data protection risks, while frequently enhancing personal efficiency. Organizations have been customarily utilizing, the prohibitive strategies for dealing with their gadgets, which are unsound and depend on a considerable measure of painstakingly manual reviewing. The solution to manage devices, application and content within the enterprise is commonly available under the banner of EMM (Enterprise Mobility Management). This is the reason that Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM), will pick up footing this year forward. EMM concentrates on the control and stream of data and information, guaranteeing that all gadgets are secure, giving clients control and freedom, while IT administrators can keep up control over business data and information on these gadgets. In the coming year, the vast majority of the enterprises from the IT Industry will give accentuation on utilizing EMM to take control of their mobility management. Comprehensive and simple to incorporate, EMM suites empower clients a mind blowing measure of control over both unapproved and consistently interfacing gadgets – it’s a more proactive answer for security.

The Upsurge of Enterprise Mobility Management
L
ast year, we saw a noteworthy move in how enterprise mobility management (EMM) is being tended to, one that begins at the foundational level of mobile strategy. Likewise, big data ruptures are seen in big organizations which dragged concentration on the cyber security. In spite of the fact that enterprises today are just making constrained use by means of cell phones, the increased focus on digitization is currently driving application advancement for mobile platforms and related monitoring prerequisites. As indicated by a research, there is a huge increment in mobile commerce, which will drive the mobile commerce income in the U.S. to 50 percent of U.S. digital commerce revenue, which is at the present time 22 percent of digital commerce revenue. Going ahead, enterprises with digital and mobile commerce initiatives need to concentrate on rousing the improvement of cross-useful groups, similar to IT, sales, customer support and legitimate, just to make consistent path-to-purchase experience, and post purchase relationships with consumers, who are very leaning toward cell phones to research and buy products and services.

Our private files live securely in the cloud, our pockets are occupied with revolutionary devices, our transportation vehicles are no longer meant for only conveyance purposes, and our doubts concerning any information have an instant witness in the form of the internet. We are unchained from the monotonous work life in front of our desks, but are we more productive? The short answer would be, no!

challenges faced by the company. This included showing Fingent’s capability and resource strength. But over the year, Fingent has been recognized for its competence, adding many accolades towards its growth. This included recognitions by organizations such as SAP, Clutch GoodFirms etc. And most recently, it was named the #1 custom software development firm in NY by GoodFirms. While Enterprise users demand mass market like apps and their cloud counterparts, security, and cultural challenges remain key obstacles. The challenge is to find a delicate balance between being in control of the enterprise mobile ecosystem, and yet freeing employees to use them efficiently. To this end, Fingent approaches UX/UI from the perspective of — Understandability, Learnability and Operability under real user conditions. On mobile, Fingent tries to imbibe business features with the natural advantages provided by the mobile ecosystem — GPS and location tracking, Voice recognition, Cameras for Scanning, Gyro and Accelerometers, native connectivity option like Wifi and Bluetooth — in a secure manner. From a UI techniques perspective Fingent looks at circular design patterns, interactive content layers, intelligent manipulation of content, cognitive interfaces, and a few other areas to provide good learnability and operability. Shaping the Future Taking the motto, changes call for innovation and innovation leads to progress, Fingent is actively working towards enabling better engagement and experience using mobile technologies. This includes activities around Artificial Intelligence, Augmented Reality, and Virtual Reality.

Mobility, Eco System and Cloud - Challenges and Answers
G
oogle, Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, each one of these companies are constantly changing the nature of how the technology-based products and services are created, consumed and enhanced. As what is said, the change has become the only constant. There have been three major thought provoking changes and concepts that are acting as catalysts to changes for all businesses in the world, and more specifically for the technology-based service industry.
Mobility We live in a constantly connected world. The mobile devices, be it phones, tablets or laptops, are all very powerful. These devices are powerful enough such that one can use these to conduct most business effectively, where as in the past desktops and wired phones were the main tools needed to do these tasks effectively. Gone are the days, when it was acceptable for people to say, “Let me get back to the office, and I will call you.” More than the mobile devices themselves, it is this change of expectation that is a major catalyst to changes. This is forcing all businesses to think seriously about how they extend their systems and services, new or legacy ones, such that their employees and customers have access to information and action both, using any device, from anywhere in the world, on demand.

Ashok Mittal President The Beast Apps December 2017
Expert’s Viewpoint Eco System Apple and Google have demonstrated very effectively that if somehow, you can build your ecosystem, an ecosystem comprising of your employees, your direct customers, your vendors, your partners and their customers, everyone benefits tremendously. Think of App Store as an example. Both Apple and Google have built a very powerful ecosystem using App Store bringing all customers, vendors, and partners together, creating value for all involved. Customers benefit because they get what they want, all at one place, integrated payment makes them more comfortable. Peer reviews help in identifying the vendor they want to give their business to. Vendors and partners benefit because now they can focus on content creation and enhancements, and marketing their product. The velocity of innovation is enhanced significantly. Of course, as the ecosystem owner, Apple and Google have not only been able to marginalize their competitors in this space, they have created an enormous enterprise value for themselves by plugging themselves in the revenue stream being generated. All corporations, big and small, are looking to see how they can build and enhance their ecosystem by bringing their customers, vendors and partners together, creating an ease of doing business and thereby creating an enhanced value for all involved. Cloud Amazon and Microsoft have helped create another fundamental change in how people think and do business. Cloud by different names, such as managed infrastructure, data center, etc. have existed for a long time, one may argue. However, what changed everything is when Amazon announced 10 cents/hr server, backed by a superior technology product. Amazon had to take a leap of faith and invest billions of dollars, driven by their conviction that CapEx to OpEx for infrastructure for a technologically superior product for a large number of the businesses will be revolutionary. It was, it is. Along with an excellent technology product, Cloud has a built in up and down scalability, and disaster recovery. This has dramatically shrunk the network, server, and hardware technology team all around, creating the tremendous amount of agility and increasing the velocity of innovation. It is the Pay-as-you-go Service model, which is the third major catalyst that is forcing every company to see how they leverage it for their own business. Mobility, access to information and action from anywhere using any device, Eco System, ease of doing business with all stake holders and Cloud through its pay as you go service model is forcing every business to see how they can December 2017
model their products and services to benefit from the change in these thought processes. Solution, Application Distribution as a Service Today a high school student, or an elderly person, can build and deploy a website in minutes. Hosted on AWS or Azure, would mean this website perhaps would be as secure and reliable as Amazon.com or Microsoft.com in some sense. This took an army of tech people ten years ago, solving name registration, DNS, hosting, firewall, load balancing and disaster recovery challenges. Now anyone can do this in minutes. Why? Because infrastructures for building and deploying websites got built. These made it simple enough where anyone could build and deploy websites using a control panel in minutes. Deploying business services is not that easy. In addition to building your “secret sauce”, a company still needs to build an infrastructure to deliver the “secret sauce.” The infrastructure, in addition to hardware, network and server infrastructure, requires core software and system services such as 1) Authentication, Authorization, Entitlement and Security 2) Ubiquitous Delivery- Desktop, Browser, Phone, Tablet 3) Real Time, Streaming, On Demand and Interactive Services 4) Audit Trail, Business Intelligence and 5) Collaboration, API, and Workflow Integration. Most agree that it is the delivering of the secret sauce that takes more than 80% of the efforts, as opposed to building the secret sauce which usually is less than 20%. While Cloud has done a fantastic job of virtualizing hardware, network, and servers, as a service in a pay as you go business model, what businesses really need next is this delivering the secret sauce, as a service on a pay as you go, model, called Application Distribution as a Service (ADaaS). Yes, as a service, changing building of the delivery infrastructure from CapEx to an OpEx model, a fully hosted and managed service. Imagine the innovation and velocity such an Application Distribution as a Service will bring to very large organizations who need to become nimble in launching their services, faster and at lower cost, as well as entrepreneurs who need to get their products out faster and cheaper in a way their bigger counterparts offer. Cloud has created a level playing field for large and small companies; an established ADaaS can up the game further. The Beast Apps is an Application Distribution as a Service provider for the financial industry boasting customers from very large financial institutions to budding entrepreneurs, alike.

CallApp: Helping Users to Identify More than 3 Billion Unknown Callers
W
ith the growing usage of smartphones and internet, another nuisance is also growing simultaneously—calls from telemarketers and spam calls. To tackle this, CallApp has entered the foray by transforming the mobile communication experience with Universal Caller ID & Communication ID, Smart Spam Filter and Call Blocking, High-Quality Call Recording, Enhanced Dialer and Social Contact Book. CallApp is a mobile platform that combines data from over 70 different information sources into an easy-touse App that enriches the communication experience. In simpler terms, it allows any person to manage or record their calls for free with optimum quality. The company is currently the largest Caller ID service in the market with over 3 billion mobile and business numbers.
Always know Who’s Calling! With one of the biggest number database in the market, you’ll always know who the real caller is behind the call Amit On Founder & CEO
A One of a kind Organization The CallApp Platform connects each phone to its universal social contact book of over 3 billion phone numbers using algorithms to correctly identify people and businesses. The CallApp community defends each other by reporting spam calls, which results in alerting and blocking these numbers for other users. It doesn’t end here for its key features; recently CallApp has released the most advanced and highest quality of call recorder on the market free, within the app. CallApp has also created a solution, CallApp+, that gives the users the same CallApp experience for every communication performed on their mobile device such as WhatsApp, text messaging, VOIP calls, Viber, etc. Now one can easily put a name, profile, and context to those nameless numbers. Some other features CallApp includes are comprehensive profiles for each user, advanced reminders, the ability to share contact

December 2017
details, fun birthday reminders, and much more. According to the company, CallApp is not just another Caller ID app, rather it is a complete call management solution. CallApp can truly replace its users’ native dialer and contact book. The value that CallApp brings to the user alone separates itself from its industry contemporaries. Incorporating social networks into Caller ID was a must for CallApp to provide its users with a much more personalized experience. The organization is always testing new and innovative ways to increase performance and user experience of CallApp. The team at CallApp tests each and every feature routinely as they believe anything less than perfect for their users is not ok. The Visionary Leader Amit On is the Founder and CEO of CallApp. When he decided to create CallApp it was because of his own personal experience that every time he made or received a call there was a lot of information missing. He knew that all of this information was already publicly available and wanted to create a solution for people to see all of this information in one easy to use place. Amit used smart data to create proprietary algorithms which are now the backbone of CallApp. On the other hand, CallApp is not Amit’s first rodeo. In the past, Amit has handled senior management positions in various successful startups, which includes being the CTO & VP R&D at Amobee, which was later acquired by Singtel for a staggering $370M, and the Senior Architect at Followap which was acquired by Neustar for $140M. Other than these, Amit has played a pivotal role in many other startups. Tackling Bumpy Roads
initial challenge was getting traction. The organization had to get its foot in the door of the competitive community somehow. However, CallApp has been able to overcome this and now has brand awareness of its product to more than 35 million users. CallApp is now the most liked Caller ID app on the planet. Just as any other startup focusing on mobile apps, CallApp also had technical issues to deal with. CallApp’s goal from the beginning has always been to provide users with information about callers all in one place. All of this information is readily available to the public, but CallApp had to create a way to put it all in one single app. There were many struggles with smart data algorithms for correctly identifying people and businesses at a large scale. With time and patience, the organization has been able to overcome these obstacles with flying colors.
just a Caller ID app, has now greatly expanded into all the communication categories including contacts, social dialer, spam blocking, and call recording amongst others. The dedicated team of CallApp is endlessly working to increase the UX and value for each user. Working Out to be a Unique Company According to the organization, CallApp is now the most liked Caller ID app in the world. When CallApp takes a step back and looks at the bigger picture, they see themselves as just getting started. The company believes that the amount of innovation it is preparing to release in the next few quarters is going to be industry changing. The communication industry has room for infinite growth, and CallApp sees itself as a company who will pave the way for the future of it.
Enhancing User Experience and Employee Productivity CallApp actually allows the user to live a less stressful life. Along with its capability to identify each phone call, it also helps to block and record calls. Additionally, CallApp can be used to increase employee productivity. It gives users the power to answer important calls and send spam and annoying calls to voicemail. If that’s not all, employees can now even record calls for future use if they forgot to write down a key point from an important conversation. A Staple in Mobile Technology CallApp has helped to revolutionize the communication experience. They now see themselves as pioneers in making mobile communication as it should be in this new era of innovation we currently live in. What started as

Catapult: Using Technology to Solve Business Challenges
M
obile technology is and will continue to be a key driver in innovation for almost all businesses in the coming years. It touches all aspects of business; from improving the customer experience to creating a modern workplace where employees can access work from anywhere, at any time. Securing this modern, digital workplace is a critical task that no company should overlook. Catapult, an innovator of modern digital solutions, is supporting this new business imperative. Working to drive innovation on behalf of its clients, Catapult is solving complex business challenges in this new climate, while creating a secure, mobile workforce.
We imagine, build and sustain IT-enabled business solutions that people love to use David Fuss CEO
As a 2017 Microsoft Partner of the Year Finalist in Cloud Productivity and the 2016 Microsoft Partner of the Year (U.S.), Catapult specializes in digital transformation and cloud-based technologies to imagine, build, and sustain IT-enabled business solutions that people love to use. Solutions that Transform The shift to the cloud has drastically changed the landscape of how service-based firms like Catapult function. Catapult realized that it could provide its clients with more value by fundamentally changing its approach to service delivery, creating “Solutions as a Service” which combine Microsoft cloud technologies with Catapult’s intellectual property, deep system expertise and customer-centric approach. While driving transformation with cloud has opened new doors for many businesses by empowering employees and driving productivity, it has also created a need to secure an ever-evolving, modern workforce. A 24-year-old leading IT services firm, Catapult offers expertise in Microsoft's technologies such as EM+S, Azure, Office 365, Windows 10, SQL Server, and SharePoint, along with Amazon Web Services, Nintex and a number of other leading technology

partners. It provides a wide array of cloud services, including strategy and planning, migration, DevOps, and managed services. Furthermore, Catapult’s full-service capabilities include modern workplace, infrastructure, business consulting, business intelligence, and custom application development. Moving Customers to the Forefront of Digital Transformation The development of innovative digital solutions has enabled Catapult to support its customers’ efforts toward digital transformation. With data security now being more important than ever, businesses are tasked with creating a secure, productive digital enterprise. Companies often are required to manage multiple, disparate point security solutions which is costly and inefficient. Catapult is turning the tide with its new IT security and compliance service, Spyglass, which leverages Microsoft EM+S and other leading security technologies to create a single view into a company’s security and compliance landscape, while providing a security coach who helps track, monitor and remediate issues as they arise. Taking a holistic approach to IT security and compliance, Spyglass maps standards, regulations and policies to the right technology solutions and creates a technology roadmap. Backed by a dedicated security coach, Catapult closely monitors and remediates security problems based on industry best practices, while working to drive user adoption of security enhancements. “Within the Spyglass portal, we visualize those requirements and regulations—identifying gaps, recommending ideal security technologies, and optimizing settings within existing tools. Spyglass

addresses common problems, making it easier for information security executives and management to understand their companys’ risks, and to make security and compliance improvements,” David affirms.
adapt to better meet its customers’ business needs. “We’ve gone from just a few employees with one office in Austin, Texas to offices nationwide, and most recently we’ve expanded globally,” he adds.
Trailblazing Solutions that Exceed Client Expectations Spyglass is one of Catapult’s most recent Solution as a Service offerings. Fuse, the first solution brought to market, is an intranet as a service, which enables the creation of a digital workplace in 80% less time and cost. Since mid-2015, Fuse strives to empower employees by driving productivity and improving employee collaboration.
A Steadfast CEO at His Best As a Chief Executive Officer for Catapult, David’s priorities include accelerating the growth and expansion of Catapult’s business to the U.S. and Global markets. He also sets the vision and strategy for the organization, fosters Catapult’s strong relationship with its business partners and will continue refining the company’s business model to provide a broader range and greater value of services and solutions.
Catapult’s Launch solution helps to optimize IT operations by providing IT Lifecycle Management in many critical areas, including user management, desktop management (through Windows 10 as a Service) and server lifecycle management. Initial Challenges that Paved Way Having been in business for the last two decades, Catapult has had to adapt to new technologies, new ways of buying (such as subscription-based services), and new customers, as buyers morphed from IT-centric to business-centric decisions. Establishing a culture that emphasized good work/life balance for employees is another ongoing challenge Consulting companies (and often their clients) are notorious for working consultants 60+ hours per week. “It was a challenge to convince potential new hires that we were different, and prove to our customers that we could achieve their goals without burning our people out,” recalls David Fuess, CEO of Catapult. Through the years, Catapult has been part of a transformative, modern digital age, and has had to quickly grow and
David brings 25 years of leadership and management experience, including 18 years of experience in the IT professional services industry. He has organically started three offices for Catapult, including Dallas, Denver and Phoenix business units, while serving as the Group Vice President and President. Prior to Catapult, David was the Dallas General Manager for BORN, and previous to BORN, he served in the role of National Director of Sales for Avanade. Future Roadmap Over the next year, Catapult will continue to transform its customers’ businesses, leveraging solutions in Catapult’s digital suite. David believes cloud will also play a crucial role in helping businesses drive efficiencies and continuously make improvements across all facets of their business. In 2018, Catapult will take an even deeper dive, continuing to look for new and improved ways to transform its customers’ products, empower their employees, engage their customers, and optimize its customers’ operations.

Finjan Mobile: A Leader in Mobile Security Innovation
T
o understand what makes Finjan Mobile and its offerings unique, it is essential to know a bit about the history of its parent company, Finjan Holdings, Inc., a cybersecurity technology company with a rich 20-year history. Back in the mid1990’s the company pioneered behavior-based threat detection as well as various other dynamic, real-time web and network security concepts which have become prevalent in the cybersecurity market today. The company was founded by serial entrepreneur Shlomo Touboul, who entered a competition hosted by Sun Microsystems to help them create programs for Java. Instead of focusing on developing new programs, Shlomo discovered that on the back end there were many holes which would require a different type of security for protection. Out of this, Finjan was formed. The company launched in 1996 in Israel with the innovation of behavior-based threat detection by focusing on proactively detecting risks by identifying patterns and behaviors of malicious content. One year later, Finjan relocated its headquarters to San Jose, California, where it patented its landmark technology and began providing software web solutions and hardware to the enterprise market.
Instantly discover who is watching and tracking you – and block them!
Phil Hartstein President and CEO
In 2008, as the hardware market began consolidating, Finjan sold off its hardware division to M86 which subsequently merged into Trustwave and more recently was purchased by Singapore Telecom. As part of this acquisition, Finjan retained all of its intellectual property assets but was put under a non-compete and as such, spent the next phase of its business licensing its technology. Leading the Way The non-compete was lifted in March of 2015 and Finjan moved quickly and decisively back into the world of development with the formation of its subsidiary Finjan Mobile. At this point in time, security software and hardware segments of the cybersecurity industry were rapidly moving toward a tipping point

of maturity, and the market was undergoing a faster pace of consolidation than ever before. Given the uptrend in mobile device usage coupled with the significant amount of transient corporate data, the average mobile user presents and represents high risks of data loss through hacking. Bringing Privacy to the Internet Users The goal with Finjan Mobile’s first product, a secure browser called VitalSecurity, was to protect consumer mobile devices from malicious content from the Internet, while remaining easy to access and easy to use. Unlike most mobile applications, VitalSecurity was intended to bring transparency to Internet users with the promise of not collecting user data. Since the initial launch in June 2015, Finjan has listened to customer feedback and released several updates and new generations of the application. VitalSecurity Gen 3.7 was launched in June 2017, building on Finjan’s patented technology to offer the ability to block trackers associated with advertising, analytics, content, and social. This significant update provided passcode access, menu bars, browsing history, and detailed virus information to educate users about potentially malicious sites. These versions of VitalSecurity were downloaded more than 180,000 times. Growing by Leaps and Bounds While mobile development has been internally focused to-date, Finjan Mobile has not lost sight of the fact that in order to grow more rapidly, it must consider go-to-market partnerships and acquisition candidates. As such, in April 2017, Finjan signed a go-to-market partnership with Avira, a German multinational security software company that provides antivirus software, internet security, privacy, identity, and performance tools for computers, smartphones, servers, and networks, delivered as both software and cloud-based services. December 2017
Providing an Affordable and Easy to Use VPN Platform Avira provides Finjan with its Virtual Private Network (VPN) platform for distribution and sale by Finjan Mobile as part of Finjan’s VitalSecurity™ suite of product offerings. The companies also entered into a confidential crosslicense under their respective patents. Finjan’s partnership with Avira enabled its September 2017 launch of the latest version of its mobile browser: VitalSecurity Gen 4.0 – “VitalSecurityVPN” – in which Finjan Mobile integrated Avira’s VPN into its secure, feature-rich browser to offer enhanced mobile security and user protection.
where VitalSecurityVPN, with features designed specifically for the enterprise, will fit in.
With VitalSecurityVPN, users are protected against multiple threats. Finjan Mobile’s subscription service is easy to use, affordably priced, and can be used amongst many devices. The browser also allows the user to select from numerous virtual locations when connecting to the VPN. While there are mobile browsers and standalone VPN apps available in the Apple and Google Play stores, VitalSecurityVPN is the first browser to combine these features into one, so users can enable/disable VPN while browsing the Internet – all without leaving the app.
Meet the CEO Phil Hartstein is President and Chief Executive Officer of Finjan Holdings, Inc. and oversees the direction and management of current assets and future investments as well as working with the company’s executive management team to execute the shareholders vision as a public technology company. Mr. Hartstein has worked in a number of technology and intellectual property related roles for over a decade. He started with a boutique IP law firm, worked in an inhouse IP function for a VC funded startup, spent time in IP consulting and IP brokerage firms, and prior to joining Finjan spent four years with two groups focused on bringing both private and public market capital, expertise, and credibility in licensing and enforcing patent rights on behalf of owners. Mr. Hartstein holds a BS in industrial technology from California Polytechnic, San Luis Obispo. He is an active participant in industry organizations, is regularly invited to speak on a number of patent monetization related topics from thirdparty litigation financing to capital market trends, and is a named inventor and patent holder with more than twodozen pending and issued patents across a number of disciplines.
Future Roadmap Moving forward, Finjan Mobile will continue to add additional privacy and security features, offer even more virtual locations throughout the U.S. and abroad through which to connect to VPN, translate its app into many popular languages to offer it overseas, and build a premium suite of mobile security consumer products. Over time, Finjan Mobile’s goal is to ultimately move into the enterprise market. As the mobile market expands, companies are increasingly embracing platforms such as mobile device management systems to manage corporate data on employeeowned devices. In order to be successful, companies must be able to optimize mobile platforms while keeping corporate data safe on their employees’ personal devices. This is
Finjan’s decades of experience in cybersecurity have enabled the company to gain a unique perspective on the industry and almost watch in slow motion as the market has consolidated and transitioned. Finjan’s choice to move its enterprise-grade technology into the hands of the consumer was deliberate – as mobile moves toward replacing desktop as the number one platform for users to access the Internet, mobile security risks are rising and the demand for solutions is following suit.

Understanding and Learning Overall Corporate Culture of Clients Back in Intratem’s foundling years, the concept of Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) wasn’t as ubiquitous in mid-level/enterprise companies as it is now. Thus, a lot of Intratem’s time was spent on customer
education. Although Telecom Expense Management (TEM) was around for decades before EMM, combining cost controls with helpdesk and reporting was a novice idea and required patience and perseverance. But, Intratem overcame those challenges to become what it is known as now. Today, Intratem is not just any another software solution provider or a run of the mill cookie-cutter system. Instead, Intratem’s team of experts takes time to understand and learn not only mobility related issues of its clients, but also the overall corporate culture. The team takes the responsibility of making sure that its clients’ wireless bills are as promised, and all end-users are as productive as they can be. Integrating Mobility into Business Areas Having a resource like Intratem, allows companies to integrate mobility into business areas which otherwise may have been neglected due to a low level of available internal support. With Intratem, IT can focus on missioncritical areas and allow Intratem to take on mobility. Ensuring that the costs, support, security, and transparency are all taken care of. Furthermore, Intratem improves user uptime and happiness, focusing on each individual person and their needs. Going forward, enterprise mobility market size is estimated to double by 2021. With this, Intratem will continue to expand its offerings into fields such as IoT, wearables, analytics, and security.

A
s the use of hand-held devices and cloud computing usage ascends up the technological bandwagon, the need for businesses to rethink their manner of performing conventional tasks has become of utmost importance. Enterprise Mobility enables this shift in work habit, where employees can access data pertaining to their responsibilities with the press of a button, tap on a screen or click of a mouse. This facilitates a large portion of the workforce to move out of the traditional on-premise setups and enhance the overall productivity and output of the firm. One such company, SevenTablets, is helping enterprises leverage the power of mobility to increase revenue, streamline operational efficiency, and reduce operating costs.
