• Consumerization of IT • Single personal/work device • Increased mobility
Why can’t you make business apps like this?
Users IT
• Need a solution now! • Security is still #1 • Mobilize workforce with
minimum support cost • Need ability to create “secure
apps” and get reporting
How do I deploy and
manage Apps?
Dev
• Need starter apps • Little “Apple” or
“Android” experience • Mobile SDKs not built
for enterprise
Where do I start?

iTunes App Store or Google Market
