VMware,
Inc. today announced it has been positioned by Gartner,
Inc. as a Leader in the 2020 Magic Quadrant for Unified Endpoint
Management (UEM). According to Gartner, VMware has been evaluated for
its ability to execute and completeness of vision.
This
is the third consecutive year VMware has been named a Leader for
Workspace ONE in Gartner's market evaluation for unified endpoint
management.
In
addition, VMware Workspace ONE has received the highest product scores
across three of the four defined use cases - compliance-driven
management, enterprise PC management and role-based device management -
in Gartner's 2020 Critical Capabilities for Unified Endpoint Management
Tools report.
"We
are honored to be recognized by Gartner, which we believe further
validates our mission to help customers benefit from modernizing their
traditional endpoint management technologies," said Shankar Iyer, senior
vice president and general manager, End-User Computing, VMware.
"Recognized for the last three years, we think VMware Workspace ONE's
scores in Gartner's Critical Capabilities report reflect the
industry-leading enterprise PC management results our customers are
seeing around the world. From our view, our cloud-native platform
enables real-time management of the entire PC lifecycle on or off domain
while overcoming traditional PCLM limitations, allowing IT to give
employees a better experience while seeing profound time and cost
savings."
Now
more than ever amidst a global pandemic, businesses need a trusted
partner to navigate uncertain times and support a distributed and mostly
remote workforce that can continue to stay productive and engaged. Due
to the sudden switch to a remote-everything, work-from-anywhere
environment, IT departments are struggling with critical tasks like
onboarding and configuring new PCs, patching and security updates,
software distribution, and compliance reporting, furthermore, creating
rising IT costs, security and compliance issues, and poor user
experience.
VMware
