IDC MarketScape Positions VMware As a Leader In Three End-User Computing Vendor Assessments
December 20 2019 - 8:00AM
VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), a leading innovator in enterprise
software, today announced it has been positioned as a leader in
three recent IDC MarketScape reports related to the End-User
Computing (EUC) space:
- IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Unified Endpoint Management Software
2019–2020 Vendor Assessment (doc # US45355119, November 2019)
- IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Enterprise Mobility Management
Software 2019-2020 Vendor Assessment (doc # US45353719, November
2019)
- IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Enterprise Mobility Management
Software for Ruggedized/IoT Device Deployments 2019–2020 Vendor
Assessment (Doc #US45353819, November 2019)
The UEM vendor assessment report states, “Workspace ONE has
broadened its support for a range of endpoint operating systems
beyond mobile. VMware's AirLift component of Workspace ONE is a PC
management migration tool, which allows users to migrate PC
management configurations and settings (such as Group Policy
Objects and applications currently managed in other in PCLM
platforms) to VMware's UEM/modern management framework. Workspace
ONE also has strong capabilities for supporting modern management
of macOS, including migrating traditional imaging- and script-based
Mac management to UEM. Chrome OS management is another UEM
strongpoint with a range of policy and security capabilities as
well as kiosk/COSU setup for Chrome devices.”
In reference to its zero-trust security capabilities, the report
continues, “VMware's acquisition of Carbon Black, a leading
next-generation endpoint security and cloud-centric advanced threat
detection company, bolsters the company's security capabilities
throughout its IT software portfolio, from datacenters and cloud to
EUC. Having a combined UEM and endpoint security offering puts
VMware in a small group of vendors offering both key enterprise
security and management technologies for PCs.”
Finally, in its vendor assessment of EMM software for Rugged/IoT
deployments, the IDC MarketScape states, “Workspace ONE has deep
integration capabilities with a range of IoT devices, such as
wearables (e.g., Google Glass, Apple Watch) and other ‘workspace
IoT’ technologies, such as digital assistants, connected
display/digital signage technology, and some connected sensor and
connected automotive IoT use cases.”
VMware continues to deliver on new innovations that make
Workspace ONE an industry digital workspace platform of choice for
IT and employees. From apps to mobile devices to PCs, VMware
Workspace ONE provides customers with a single console to manage
and better secure critical business apps and devices across all
platforms, including Windows 10, macOS, Chrome OS, iOS, Android and
Linux. A myriad of UEM-related innovations – including digital
concierge services to simplify employee experiences, Digital
Employee Experience Management for proactive management of employee
digital experiences, and Workspace ONE Assist for remote support –
were introduced this year at VMworld 2019 U.S. and VMworld 2019
Europe.
“As we advance our Workspace ONE platform, our customers’ most
pressing challenges – including improving employee digital
experience and securing an increasingly complex end-user computing
landscape – are front and center,” said Shankar Iyer, senior vice
president and general manager, End-User Computing, VMware. “The new
innovations and capabilities we continue to unveil at a rapid pace
aim to alleviate these challenges and set our Workspace ONE
platform apart from other UEM offerings, as recognized by today’s
leading analysts.”
