Vodafone Ireland introduces Managed Tablet service

Vodafone Ireland has introducted a managed tablet service, allowing businesses to distribute tablet PCs to staff that comply with security standards.

According to Forrester Research, 25% of enterprises are now using, piloting, or planning to deploy tablets in business. This is driven by the desire of organisations to move to new ways of working that provide greater flexibility to employees while improving customer engagement.

Vodafone Managed Tablet offers businesses a choice of tablet devices; data connectivity plans; configuration for the corporate environment, whether device is employee or company owned; and uniform company-wide security measures through Vodafone1 Secure Device Manager

Leo O’Leary, head of corporate & public sector at Vodafone Ireland (pictured), said: "A key obstacle to tablet adoption by businesses has been the issue of retaining control of costs and managing data across a fleet of devices. This new end to end service from Vodafone offers the solutions and security to address that. Coupled with our network performance which was independently certified for being the best network for iPad2, Vodafone Managed Tablet will enable businesses to seamlessly introduce tablets while addressing any potential security concerns they may have."
