VMware, Inc., a global leader in cloud infrastructure and
business mobility, sees growth in adoption of its digital workspace solutions
by Indian organizations. With more than 1 million end-points managed in India, VMware saw some notable customer wins
including – Max Life Insurance, MSC Software, Malayala Manorama, Karunya
University, among others.
VMware is one of the industry leaders in delivering a
secure digital workspace which gives IT a more efficient, simplified way of
managing users, devices and applications. The average return on investment for
digital workspace expenditures is 150 percent. In 2016, VMware surveyed more
than 1,200 IT decision makers, IT influencers, and business decision makers
worldwide and found 78 percent have successfully executed or are actively
executing mobile initiatives and are moving to a digital workspace. Digital workspaces deliver better security, reduce IT management
costs and complexity, and prevent data loss.
“The digital workspace is the defining model for end-user
computing in the mobile cloud era. Business is changing in India and digital workspaces are adding real
business value for organizations, and at the same time allowing users to focus
on the work to be done, not the technology in their hands,” said Arun Parameswaran, Managing Director,
VMware India. “We are at the heart of this change by delivering a comprehensive
end-user computing platform built on a mobile-cloud architecture that enables
organizations to drive digital transformation.”
“Enterprise mobility is witnessing a paradigm shift
towards consolidation of enterprise systems that seamlessly enable not just
multi-platform devices and apps, but also emerging connected devices such as
wearables, IoT, machine learning and virtual reality systems. Proliferation of
mobile endpoints has compelled businesses to address threat management with
automated and adaptive defence mechanisms while simultaneously driving richer
user experience. This year will see a change in how businesses approach
mobility, from a device-focused approach to a more comprehensive strategy. To
ensure the long-term success of enterprise mobile strategy, many organizations
are implementing ‘Mobile Center of Excellence’ where multiple stakeholders
having IT and business expertise are collaborating to reshape business models,
maximize corporate performance and derive business value,” said Benoy CS,
Director, Digital Transformation (ICT) Practice, Frost & Sullivan.
“India represents a complex and competitive life insurance
market. Technology plays a critical role in partnering with business and gives
us a competitive edge in the market. Business Mobility is one key area where we
are focusing on to enable our workforce to work more efficiently in servicing
our growing customer base better. We’re working closely with VMware to help us
with the end user computing strategy to empower our employees, while keeping
our confidential information secure,” said Ekhlaque Bari, Executive Vice
President & Head IT, Max Life Insurance.
“Delivering critical news as it happens is the advantage
you have over competition in the publishing industry. Thanks to VMware
AirWatch, our reporters can break news live from the field, much to our
readers’ delight,” said VV Jacob, General
Manager, Systems, Malayala Manorama.
Building on the digital workspace innovations to accelerate its
adoption, VMware recently introduced new updates to its award winning Workspace ONE solution. These updates make it easy for IT to
deliver unified access and single sign-on experience to Intranet applications,
and will offer richer conditional access capabilities that combine real-time
security hygiene with compliance automation. Updates to the market-leading AirWatch Unified Endpoint Management portfolio have enhanced
support across OS platforms for mobile (iOS, Android), desktop (Windows 10,
macOS), purpose-built (ruggedized) and IoT endpoints to simplify provisioning
and end-user onboarding.
