During an interview with Odyssey CEO a while back he explained that iOS
was easy to develop for, Android is a lot harder.

 

BTW: With Odyssey's acquisition a lot of folks are looking more toward
AirWatch.  Both will be at MMS 2012 in the Expo so you can compare.

I'm in the same boat right now, looking at different products.  The one
that I was most impressed by, was Athena, from Odyssey Software (which,
unfortunately, was recently bought by Symantec).  Athena is an add-in to
SCCM, so all management is through SCCM.  No additional infrastructure
needed.  Also, what I've been finding is that with all the MDM products
I've looked at so far, there are many more policy/management options
with the Apple devices as opposed to the Android devices.

Subject: MDM - Tablet/BYOD

 

Are any of you using a third party MDM such as MaaS/MobileIron/AirWatch
with either your company owned or BYOD tablets and phones?

 

I'm about to look at tablets, most likely iPads, with an eye on possible
BYOD for mobiles.  These days if someone walks through the door with a
personal device it's an Apple with the odd Android or Windows
Mobile/Windows Phone device.

 

I can't easily trial every MDM out there, and right now I don't even
know exactly what policies we'd want to enforce, but I know that
ActiveSync can be variable with device support and devices can basically
lie/ignore settings in some situations.

 

Thanks,

Paul
