BlackBerry : “ Our thoughts are now to extend our tool chain approach across all of technology covering devices and ways of working . We have started this in earnest with using BlackBerry UEM which provides us with a ‘ single pane of glass ’ to manage both Apple iOS , Android and BlackBerry devices . The introduction of BlackBerry UEM has allowed us to consolidate four separate mobile device management platforms , into one . Regardless of the operating system or ownership type , UEM is able to provide policies that secure the device and the data held on it . We have used UEM as a platform to launch in-house developed , bespoke mobile applications , that are tailored to the needs of our Lawyer ’ s and clients . The device enrolment process became far simpler and more secure with the adoption of QR codes , negating the need for long provisioning codes . Over the past eight months , Freshfields IT has enrolled over 5,000 devices onto the UEM platform .”
SnapLogic : Integration tool provider . “ If you take the SnapLogic product , that ’ s an interesting selection because we were looking at a number of integration tools . It ’ s a very competitive space , but again at this stage in our lifecycle , in our maturity model , it was the only product which I think you didn ’ t need to have a computer science degree to operate .” Further , Grainger outlined a plan to create a panel of technology providers , a synergistic forum to facilitate even deeper collaboration and knowledge sharing .
