The VMware approach to BYOD can make your organization more productive, and that, in turn, can drive profitability. Desktop virtualization for BYOD lets your team focus more on application and activity management (and less on hardware provisioning and maintenance), while best-in-class endpoint management and administration solutions securely update your end user devices and address disaster recovery – all while increasing employee productivity and choice.
