Perlego Horizons Mobile Device Lifecycle Management (MDLM) Solution

Perlego Horizons Mobile Device Lifecycle Management (MDLM) Solution

Perlego Horizons gives your IT staff incredible over-the-air power to take control of your wireless smart devices today.

 

True device management is much more than being able to wipe or disable a device. Dynamic enterprises require the tools that turn mobile smart devices into the productivity tools they were meant to be without becoming huge liabilities to keep track of and maintain.

Device Deployment Phase

 

Does your IT staff have to physically handle every device before it is put in to service? That is an incredible additional cost in man power and delaying the effective use of the device. Perlego allows you to set user configurations, load applications and data files and even establish email settings on the device, all over the air.

 

You may need to configure every device uniquely or every device exactly the same. It makes no difference. Whether you need to get 5 or 5,000 devices up and running, Perlego lets you do it quickly, efficiently and all with a detailed machine audit trail.

 

 

Service Life Phase

 

Making sure that your mobile devices are as productive as possible means two things: 1) making sure they have access to the information they require and 2) limiting down time. Perlego provides the tools to do both and, in doing so, helps you get the most out of your mobile device investment.

 

You can make applications and critical information available for download to a particular individual, various groups or even all the devices you manage.

For example, you can make sure that only the sales team can access the monthly quota sheets, that everyone in the company can get the latest corporate TV ad and that only the CEO can get this quarter’s P&L when she needs it. No need to use clumsy email attachments and always know exactly who has accessed what files.

 

Additionally, your IT staff can update critical software, provide security patches and deploy new applications without ever taking the devices out of service. Now they can perform regular maintenance and updates for wireless smart devices the same way they manage the laptops and desktops on the corporate network.

 

Termination and Conversion Phase

 

Every mobile device eventually comes to the end of its useful life. Sometimes this is a planned event and sometimes it happens by accident. Either way, Perlego makes this transition to a new device or straight termination of a device easy.

 

 

Of course you can lock down a device anytime you want, but more importantly, you can make sure the next device being placed into service for that same user has the exact settings, personal information, even applications, that the old device had. Switching from one type of device and operating system to another? No problem. All of the user’s critical PIM data can be restored to their new phone in a matter of minutes.

Multi-tenant / Multi-domain based SOA Implementation Perlego is the market leader in the SOA implementation of Mobile Device Lifecycle Management (MDLM) solutions. Perlego Horizon’s key concepts include the ability to manage the complex device management environment including multiple smart phone operating systems, multiple cellular networks, and multiple data network types. Since going to market, the industry has validated the perspective on MDLM as implemented by Perlego. This document provides a quick overview of Perlego Horizons’ features, with a focus on enterprise applications.

 

Perlego OTA Remote™

 

At the heart of the Perlego Mobile Device Lifecycle Management Solution is this robust client-server software that allows administrators to execute a wide variety of remote commands on smart devices. This powerful functionality is used throughout the lifecycle of the device to configure user settings, retrieve device, SIM and network information, even wipe or disable a smart phone if it becomes necessary, all over-the-air from a secure administration screen.

 

Perlego OTA Update™

 

Maximizing the potential of mobile devices is tied to access to current data. However, file and data distribution to smart devices has long depended upon email attachments, tethering to a laptop or requiring the user to fumble with an ineffective web browser. Even then you never really knew if the user got the file they needed or not. With Perlego technology, you have the power to create custom catalogs of downloads for groups, or even individual users, and quickly

distribute them over the air with delivery confirmation. Used with Perlego OTA Remote, file maintenance and application deployment are stress free and easily repeatable.

 

Perlego OTA Backup™

 

Throughout the device lifecycle, but particularly at the end and when converting to a new device, data assurance is critical. Perlego OTA Backup addresses that need. It allows users the option of manual or scheduled complete data backup. In the case of a catastrophic event when a user breaks or loses their device or is forced to hard reset, they can completely restore documents, calendar items, contacts, tasks, user settings, third-party applications, even the SIM card. And all this without having to be connected to a laptop.

 

 

Be Up and Running Now

 

Perlego’s hosted solution allows you to deploy in minutes – not weeks or months. Your dedicated domain, including secure access administrative accounts, are created with a simple phone call. The client software can be installed so simply and easily that it doesn’t require IT resources to touch each one.

 

Get a Handle on All Your Devices

 

It doesn’t matter if you have phones operating on a variety of Symbian, Palm or Microsoft systems. It doesn’t matter if they are spread across multiple carriers or multiple continents. Perlego can handle the devices already being used by your people now as well as the devices you’ll be adding in the future.

 

Control Without Breaking Your Budget

 

No expensive servers or software to invest in. No additional staff to maintain an extended system. No extended time to learn the system and optimize it. Perlego provides the lowest total cost of ownership by giving you a proven, hosted solution.

 

All Perlego utilities are hosted on secure servers surpassing world-class standards for backup, redundancy and latency; all day – every day. Dependable enough for carrier grade deployment, flexible enough for enterprise needs.
