Mobile Enterprise
Mobile enterprise is a generic term given to the growing market
for business-related data applications over wireless, wide-area
networks. Mobile enterprise solutions, also referred to as
mobile workforce solutions, typically provide business users
with seamless access to corporate email, applications, and
services from any place, at any time, via mobile phones, PDAs,
and other wireless devices.
Over the past several years many industries have come to rely
upon mobile enterprise applications. Blackberry devices, for
example, have become de rigueur among investment bankers
and lawyers who need “always on” access to email and market
information. Local government is using handhelds to capture
field information from remote government employees for animal
control and tracking, Emergency Medical Services (EMS), and
traffic management. In the healthcare industry physicians and
case managers can now capture and access health information at
point of care.
Popular mobile enterprise applications used across all
industries include sales force automation, field force
automation, fleet management, inventory management, mobile tech,
and wireless CRM.
