You probably already own the tools you need to securely manage your remote workforce’s workstations and mobile devices.

We have been working with our State of California customers to reach the goal of zero-touch deployments and patching by implementing the Microsoft technologies they already own. One of the most pressing concerns we hear is, “How do we securely manage and monitor our workforce’s devices now that they are working from home? And where should we start?” The first step is developing your custom roadmap for Microsoft Modern Device Management (MDM)!

An MDM Strategic Plan is the foundation for prioritizing goals and order of implementation for modernizing, streamlining, and operationalizing device management including:

· Device and User Identities and Targeting

· Desktop Management

· Mobile Device Management (Non-Windows)

· Mobile Application Management and Bring-Your-Own-Device Access

· Device and Information Security

· Governance topics

Conventional approaches to device management are no longer adequate for the new digital workplace. A cloud-first model for devices, security, data, collaboration, and applications must be seamlessly integrated to maximize efficiency and productivity for employees. Transformation in end-user computing is inevitable and Planet’s Device Management engagement offers discovery and learning sessions on the three pillars of device management.

Put your organization in position to make effective business decisions for holistically managing your remote workforce.

Planet Technologies works with you to understand your unique business mission while integrating modern technology into your short and long-term strategic plans.
