Mobile device management ideally should be a combination of general management and security. It should have the ability to make company wide changes from one central interface and to have the functionality to enable and enforce security such as wiping a mobile device clean or being able to wipe off just the corporate settings and data.
The usual aspects should be taken into consideration such as the ability to support many smart phones (Blackberry, Android, Apple, Symbian, Windows Mobile, etc), a granular and functionally powerful management system as well as being easy to install and administer.
Mobile device management for various smart phones is a fairly new aspect that organisations have just started to invest in to. We expect more vendors to come on board in the future and to integrate mobile management into their existing solutions.
