Build a resilient business with Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager

In recent years, organizations have witnessed a major shift in their systems, driven by the rapid adoption of remote work. Cloud-based solutions have become essential, offering numerous benefits across different aspects of business operations. Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager has emerged as a unified Swiss knife, seamlessly combining management solutions (like Intune) to facilitate a smooth migration to the Microsoft Cloud. This comprehensive solution empowers organizations to reduce time, costs, and efforts while protecting and administering their migration processes. Recognized as a leader in The Forrester Wave 2021, Endpoint Configuration Manager simplifies configuration points and automates software updates for all endpoints.

The Need for Device Management

Device management plays a critical role in enabling organizations to manage, protect, and automate functions across a wide range of devices and operating systems. The exponential growth in mobile device usage, coupled with the massive increase in data traversing networks, highlights the necessity of implementing modern device management platforms. However, despite the clear benefits, some companies hesitate to invest in device management due to concerns such as cost, lack of trained IT staff, absence of policies, architectural limitations, and security fears. The statistics, though, leave no room for debate—device management platforms are an absolute necessity in today’s digital landscape.

The Rise of Unified Endpoint Management:

Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) has emerged as a comprehensive solution that goes beyond Mobile Device Management (MDM) by providing centralized management for a complete universe of endpoints, including local and cloud-based servers/VMs. The UEM market has witnessed significant shifts over the last decade, with Microsoft, VMware, and Ivanti leading the pack in terms of execution and vision. When selecting a UEM platform, organizations should consider factors such as endpoint and application management, advanced reporting and analytics, endpoint security, third-party integration, scalability, remote support, product maturity and roadmap, support for purpose-built devices, and transparent pricing.
