White Papers and Solution Briefs

Enterprises enabling their workforce with mobile access are increasingly adopting 3G as a reliable option for access. As with the early deployments of Wi-Fi, 3G hardware was initially released as removable modems in a variety of form factors (USB, PCMCIA and Express) available from major carriers and service providers. Although this approach is cumbersome for the IT department and for end-users, embedded 3G has not been able to provide a viable solution to it until Qualcomm’s release of its Gobi™ platform.

	Maximizing the Return on Enterprise Mobility In a few short years, workforce mobility has grown from a convenience to a mission-critical corporate enabler that can determine an organization's fate. Mobility management has not kept pace, however. Today's processes and procedures, in many cases, lag behind the latest business requirements and technologies, leading to lapses in security, loss of productivity and a higher total cost of ownership. This executive report assesses the current state of mobility management, explores the key ingredients of an effective mobility management plan, and suggests a path forward to maximize enterprise mobility.
	Overcoming the Enterprise Mobility Blind Spot Mobile computing has empowered employees on the move. High speed data networks are everywhere, from Wi‐Fi access in airports and public places to pervasive mobile broadband networks that blanket whole countries. But much of the action now takes place far out of sight and reach of corporate IT departments. This mobility “blind spot” is becoming a thorn in the side of IT executives who are increasingly held accountable for the behavior of the mobile workforce. This white paper explores the power of mobile visibility and how it can help you overcome your mobility blind spot to reveal opportunities for significant savings, optimized security and improved workforce productivity.
	Simplifying 3G for the Enterprise To read how Gobi technology with Trellia's Mobile Policy Manager (MPM) can allow enterprises to reduce their total cost of ownership (TCO) for 3G read our solution brief.
	Optimizing the Cloud for Enterprise-grade Mobility Cloud computing is rapidly changing how enterprises manage applications and deliver data to their workforce. One of the fundamental premises of cloud computing is ubiquitous access to the Internet. In today’s mobile environment, this could pose a challenge. Not because the Internet isn’t readily available – but because most organizations rely on the mobile worker to manage their connectivity. End user-driven connectivity in a cloud infrastructure can often lead to degraded service and minimized benefits when organizations rely on mobile workers to manually establish connectivity. Exacerbating the problem is the introduction of unbudgeted access costs and security holes as the mobile workforce makes expensive and insecure connectivity decisions from the field. This application note outlines how Trellia’s Mobile Policy Management (MPM) platform optimizes cloud-based deployments to the mobile workforce, and introduces mobility policies as a service.
	Enabling Windows 7 for Enterprise-grade Mobility Windows 7 is one of the most user-friendly and feature-rich operating system that Microsoft has ever released. It has been characterized as everything from a major step for Windows to a minor service pack for Windows Vista. According to Gartner, it cannot be overlooked. The new OS introduces a variety of optimizations and subtle changes — along with significant new functionality, specifically in the area of connectivity to the Internet and corporate resources. Yet, from a mobility perspective, Windows 7 does not address the cornerstone CIO requirement of a homogeneous management paradigm – to manage all enterprise and non-enterprise access through visibility and control of mobile policies within a single solution. This application note outlines how Trellia's Mobile Policy Management (MPM) addresses this requirement and enhances Windows 7 deployments as a result.
