Imagine hundreds of workers relying on the device and the software on it to perform their everyday jobs. How do you manage version control when the software needs an upgrade? Having the units come in to a depot is out of the question. And how do you track these assets now that they are no longer within your four walls? Auditors will have a field day if you find out these assets and the information on them isn't properly being controlled and tracked.

Also a proper management strategy for mobile devices includes peripherals like portable chargers, stylus', protective skins, and spare batteries.

Management includes all these considerations and begins with monitoring software on the device to monitor its health and usage along with a central web based console that will allow IT departments to track all these devices in real time.
