Abstract

This IDC study represents a vendor assessment of providers offering enterprise mobility management (EMM) software through the IDC MarketScape model. The assessment reviews both quantitative and qualitative characteristics that define current market demands and expected buyer needs for EMM software. The evaluation is based on a comprehensive and rigorous framework that assesses each vendor relative to one another, and the framework highlights the key factors that are expected to be the most significant for achieving success in the EMM market over the short term and the long term.

"EMM is a broad-based platform for endpoint device, application, and data management and security, ranging from purely mobile (smartphone/tablet devices only) to more advanced UEM scenarios, as well as ruggedized and IoT-centric management use cases," says Phil Hochmuth, program vice president, Enterprise Mobility and Client Endpoint Management at IDC. "We're seeing EMM software adoption span every vertical industry and company size — from SMB to enterprise — each with its own specific use cases and market requirements."
