When your business starts looking into smartphones and other
mobile devices to help keep up with the pace, you may start to have some
concerns about how to manage them. The good news is that there are a few
programs available to help you do just that. Whether you worry about how your
employees use their mobile devices, or you worry about them being lost or
stolen, you can find the right application to help you have more peace of mind.
The producers of the In View series hosted by Larry King (561-279-3550)
will show business professionals across the country some of the programs
that can help them manage smartphone usage. In View Larry King producer teams
identify noteworthy stories relating to companies throughout the economy across
the United States and Canada.
Usage can be a major concern with all of the games and other
distractions available for smartphones and tablets, but with the right
monitoring system you can see which applications your employees have downloaded
and even uninstall the ones that you don’t want them to have. You can also
monitor which apps are good for your business purposes and share them between
all your employees at once instead of mandating that they find and install them
when they find the time. In fact, with a good monitoring system you can have
your employees design new applications and share them company-wide without
having to put them on an app market first. The In View series (855-446-8439)
will look at how companies keep employees on task and keep them from
misusing their mobile computing devices.
Security can be another major concern when it comes to using
mobile devices as some will have sensitive information saved on them and all of
them will represent money spent by your company. With a monitoring system, you
can lock certain information or even erase it if you need to. You can track
your mobile devices if they are lost or stolen and help the authorities better
recover your items. You can even do all of this from your own mobile device or
from your computer.
A lot of times, the business world is all about staying with
or ahead of the competition and the latest technological advances and
innovations can help you do just that. With all of the different options for
smartphones, tablets, and computers that are available to help boost your
business, finding the right monitoring application can help you have fewer
worries and increased productivity.
Technology changes so fast these days that it hard to know what works best. I’d like to see the In View series look into the different kinds of business technology out there and objectively review it.
ReplyDeleteMy business has used company-issued smartphones to control and monitor data usage by my employees. It’d be interesting to see the In View series do something about the best smartphone apps for small businesses.
ReplyDeleteI’d like to find a way to make my employees get all apps approved by management. That would be very helpful. Then, they would not be able to download games that waste time. Hopefully the In View series will present something like that.
ReplyDeleteI think this is an important issue. Companies can block or limit internet access on their networked computers to keep employees on task, but controlling their smartphone use poses new challenges. The In View series could help business owners by informing us about programs for controlling smartphone usage.
