The business container for iOS devices presents an excellent opportunity for maintaining the separation of private and business data, by preventing business documents being opened in private applications. Previously, if one wanted to edit a document in a managed app, it had to be firstly opened in Cortado Workplace and then, via Open In, in the desired app (e.g. Microsoft Word or Pages). However, the new Cortado feature Document Provider optimizes this process. The user can immediately start the app with which he wishes to edit a document, which is actually stored on the company server. He can select the document directly from the app. This improves productivity and eliminates the need for cumbersome switching of applications.

The integration of mobile devices into the corporate structure takes time, especially in companies with large numbers of mobile employees. IT experts increasingly rely on comprehensive group management that efficiently and effectively assigns existing user groups the relevant rights, applications and resources.

This is because Active Directory already exists in virtually every company and the rights of all users within their groups are already defined. However, not all enterprise mobility management solutions offer convenient management of mobile devices. One example though for efficient and easy management of user groups, that meets all requirements for security and ease of use, is Cortado Server.

The use of cloud services such as Dropbox and Google Drive is increasing and not just for private use but also within companies. Mobile file sharing is too increasingly being used by employees to gain additional flexibility and independence. This allows users to always have access to files required for work and to be able to share them with others. While many file sharing solutions are useful for private users, the majority are not suitable in a business context. This is due not only to the higher data volumes generated by an enterprise that the solution must deal with, but also and more importantly, security issues. An on-premises file-sharing solution is a highly-suitable option for complying with security regulations within the enterprise. This is due to data being kept securely behind the company’s own firewall. Discover in this white paper more about the possibilities that on-premises file sharing solutions offer.
