Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud
for service providers

The Enterprise Mobility Management Market will grow from $3,169.0 Million in 2014 to $15,224.1 Million by 2019 according to a new market research report, "Enterprise Mobility Management Market by Solution (Mobile Device Management, Mobile Content Management, Mobile Application Management), by Services (Maintenance & Support, Professional Services) - Global Forecast to 2019", published by MarketsandMarkets,.

With that in mind, I’d like to focus on one of our key Mobile Device Management (MDM) partners, MobileIron, and how Acronis Files Advanced, as a leading Mobile Content Management (MCM), brings true business value to the MobileIron AppConnect platform when they work together.

So what’s MDM without MCM?

The explosion of mobile device use is driving massive changes in organizations across the world today, however, we remain focused on the more fundamental and basic needs – like device security and management. If you’re looking simply for a routine device configuration, MobileIron’s MDM solution will be the right fit for you. On the other hand, if you’re like one of the USA’s top government agencies looking for a MCM solution, you’ll want to evaluate Acronis Files Advanced for capabilities such as secure access to on and off-premise content for the thousands of mobile workers whilst meeting enhanced security policies such as FIPS 140-2.

Whilst MobileIron provides an excellent MDM solution for securing and tracking devices, many of their AppConnect customers, like Contintentale Insurance in Germany who, with the support of Acronis/Mobile partner sector27, have integrated Acronis Files Advanced as their preferred Mobile Content Management (MCM) solution. Acronis Files Advanced enables employees to get access to their files from any device, so they can review and modify them even when they are offline. Employees can also share their work and collaborate with others inside and outside the organization – all while maintaining the proper security, control and compliance required by the business.  This applies to mobile workers – not just using smartphones and tablets but also using web browsers, laptops, or personal computers at home.

I recently spoke to a key Acronis/MobileIron reseller, Dejan Miletic, from NIL d.o.o. who said: “We believe that Acronis Files Advanced when combined with MobileIron, is the best EMM solution on the market today. Acronis Files Advanced is very valuable for those MobileIron customers who need secure and comprehensive sync and share capabilities, including broad web browser support especially across Mac and Windows.”
