Advent of Multiple Smart-phones and High-end Feature Phones Expands Prospects for Mobile Device Management Technologies

MDM technologies are expected to witness worldwide commercialization and adoption by 2011-2012. The launch of a host of smart phones such as the RIM Blackberry, Apple iphone, and the G2 from Google has clearly enlarged the subscriber base for mobile users. The upsurge in the mobile device market has further stimulated the growth of software-based applications for managing various aspects of mobile devices including configuration and security in addition to other business applications. "As conventional models of device management incur high costs in terms of customer support and maintenance operations, remote device management solutions that employ firmware-over-the-air (FOTA) and software-components-over-the-air (SCOTA) have been catapulted to the spotlight," notes the analyst of this research service. "These techniques present both consumers and stakeholders with a quicker and more cost efficient model, utilizing over-the-air technologies for implementing software updates in wireless devices."
