Enterprise mobility is a notion that affects the business sector to a great extent. The concept is being adopted by different industries as part of their digital transformation journey. Enterprise mobility has been widely appreciated due to the drastic improvement in employee productivity. Organizations continue to leverage new mobile technologies to increase productivity, reduce expenses, safeguard information, and enhance staff experience. Each year there are new technologies that get launched. Some of the enterprise mobility trends that could have a greater effect on organizations are given below:
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a concept and is widely being used by various organizations. It is anticipated that AI deployment will see a more advanced stage, making companies more effective and productive. AI helps with data governance, making information clearer, easy to understand and ready to use aiding better decision making.
Security
Security is the most important requirement of any technology. Mobile Treat defense will not only be a necessity but also a popular trend in 2019. Previously, mobile phones have been the main target of phishing attacks and as a result enterprises are likely to concentrate more on MTD.

Although the 5G rollout will be slow and available only in selected areas, enterprises will have to get ready for the adoption. 5G will enable enterprises to get the most out of its devices and the data collected by them. Speed and efficiency offered by 5G will have great impact on how enterprises function.
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)
The adoption of Bring your own device (BYOD) concept is likely to increase in 2019. As per recent reports, BYOD market is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of more than 17% in the next 4 years. One of the main reasons for BYOD adoption is the increased mobile security. IT leaders have supported the concept of BYOD due to cost savings and better productivity that it brings in.
Unified Endpoint Management (UEM)
Considering the need for more secure mobile devices, the concept of United Endpoint Management (UEM) is likely to be adopted by more enterprises. According to a recent survey, nearly 40% of enterprises said that they will be exploring the UEM solution in the near future. The technology enables the endpoints to be connected through safe and secure platform, which helps better management of enterprises. By adopting UEM, enterprises can achieve long term cost savings.
