Unified Endpoint Management


Unified Endpoint Management is a class of software tools that provide a single management interface for mobile, PC and other devices. It is an evolution of, and replacement for, mobile device management and enterprise mobility management and client management tools.
It provides capabilities for managing and securing mobile applications, content, collaboration and more. It is a single approach to managing all endpoints like smartphones, tablets, laptops, printers, ruggedized devices, Internet of Things and wearables.

Evolution

With new types of devices being used in the workplace, administration of traditional laptops, desktops and new devices was a challenging task for IT administrators. Traditional CMTs lacked some features for a complete approach to endpoint management.
The rise of UEM was also a result of the adoption of newer enterprise friendly platforms like Windows10, and iOS11.
