iPhones and iPad to be used in the enterprise for years
even with MDM solutions this was a real challenge for IT departments
now with iOS 7, Apple has introduced
a complete vision of iOS in the enterprise.
Cortado Corporate Server 7 leverages this vision to deliver the best
enterprise mobility solution in an easy to maintain format. But even better,
it also supports all your other devices including PCs and Macs.
IT department. Hey Jennifer you're not going to believe what I did
I left my laptop at home and I'm out of town
for a big meeting tomorrow morning. Not to worry,
did you use Cortado Sync on your laptop as we recommended?
And you have any other device such as your smartphone your tablet with you?
I do have my personal iPad with me. let me go grab it.
Okay, this'll be easy then. We'll connect your
iPad with your Cortado Corporate Server
profile
So you will have remote access to corporate IT services
as you did before with your laptop Let's start by opening the browser on your iPad,
go to our intranet, follow the link to Cortado User Portal,
login with your credentials and start the first run wizard.
So, what you need for your project? First I need access to my corporate emails and
the key account team file shares,
then the actual customer data, I'd like to be able to check the
progress of their order before my presentation begins.
I will do the presentation in our New York office,
so I need access to a printer there for the handouts.
And I'd also like to practice so
if i could print the note pages here at the hotel that would be fantastic.
Oh, and speaking at my presentation - can i still access that sincei don't have the
computer here with me?
We can get you all of that! That's the great part of my job, to help people with
innovative solutions in
unexpected situations. Cortado Corporate Server is perfect for that.
It's so much more than just MDM and it also supports traditional desktops and
laptops.
That's why I can recommend Tim to use Cortado Sync on his laptop
to backup all the important documents. Fixing Tim's problem
is actually much easier than you might think. Tim is an employee of our company
so he has an Active Directory profile. With Cortado corporate server
I'm able then to leverage his existing AD rights for his iPad.
When he signed in to the Cortado User Self Service Portal,
he's activating the Cortado MDM system.
So we can make sure to take care of corporate data
on his personal iPad. To start, I have to configure his VPN settings
on the device. I will install the Wifi profile
of our New York office for his convenience and I push that corporate
email account to the device
Secondly, he needs access to his file shares,
so I will push the Cortado App as well together with
the Keynote App. When I'm pushing out these apps
I choose App VPN to separate his work from his personal environment
I know Tim is a big sports fan and we don't like this streaming traffic
through our corporate VPN.
For data security reasons, I will activate managed open-in,
so Tim will only be able to share the corporate documents between
Keynote, the Cortado App and his
corporate email account. The documents will be strongly encrypted on the device
and will not be moved to any unauthorized location.
To go into a little more detail: as a member of the Active Directory group
Sales he already has access to most of the sales team share files with the
Cortado App.
I just have to add the key account team share to his account.
As you can see that was very easy.
For the printer request - Tim wanted access for
the New York office and as you can see
its also easily done and with just a few more clicks I can enable
local printing and this way he can print
to the hotel printer. Then the actual customer data,
that's what our sales reps always need access to you.
We have already created a Microsoft Access report
for this purpose, I will link Keynote to his Enterprise Resource Store
as a recommended app. Deployment is not only easy for the user,
it's also easy from the admin's perspective. Data security is always a top line
concern for companies
with Cortado's adaptive MDM and MAM features
the administrator has a complete overview of all devices,
users, accounts, apps,
policies,certificates, VPN
and a wifi profiles and making intervene
in due time in the case out misuse,
loss or theft. This keeps our data and our devices
secure. Cortado will cover all of the security aspects that our company
requires.
Alright Tim, you're all set. Good luck.
I just had the best meeting; we're all set on our project Jennifer really saved me
I forgot my laptop of all things. Thanks to Cortado Corporate Server
she was able to turn my private iPad into a real working machine in just a
few minutes.
I've got all the apps and accounts I need
pushed to my iPad, they just appeared
magic! With the Cortado app, I have access from my iPad to all my folders and all the
team shares.
All my files which I thought I would have to completely redo
they appeared in the Cortado app on my iPad, so I can just
continue to work where I left off. Best,
I can just search the files on my iPad so I was able to finalize my
presentation
at the hotel just by working with Keynote.
And during the meeting, I was even able to check the latest customer numbers.
We have a report in our team folder and when you open it in your iPad
you just have to enter the account number and get the whole data.
So I could check and see if they had paid. And this morning
I just printed the presentation on the printer in our New York office,
amazing!
Jen, thanks so much for saving that meeting I had everything I needed. It
went really well
and to be honest, it was much more relaxing for me to
have to work on a weekend with my iPad instead of my laptop -
I may never pack it with me again. I have to say I could not have done it without
your help!
Glad to hear it. I knew Cortado Corporate Server was exactly what you need.
