BlackBerry Again Recognized as a Leader in the 2018 IDC MarketScape EMM Report
BlackBerry Limited (NYSE: BB; TSX: BB) today announced it has been positioned by IDC, as a ‘Leader’ within the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Enterprise Mobility Management Software 2018 Vendor Assessment[i], which provides an in-depth analysis of worldwide enterprise mobility management (EMM) software providers. BlackBerry was one of six EMM vendors to be named as a ‘Leader’ this year.
In the report, IDC MarketScape named BlackBerry a ‘Leader’ for the second year in a row and highlighted the following key components of the company’s enterprise and embedded software stack:
“Enterprise software is already complex. Scaling existing infrastructure with the addition of IoT devices that meet security requirements, fit within new and existing workflows, and comply with company and regulatory policy regimes is both extraordinarily hard and increasingly a requirement for global IT organizations,” said Billy Ho, EVP of Enterprise Products at BlackBerry. “What customers are now demanding and BlackBerry is uniquely positioned to offer is a highly secure platform that simplifies the task of managing billions of connected endpoints and makes it easier for authorized end users to access the value stored in all of the ‘things’ that comprise a modern enterprise.”
BlackBerry will be demonstrating its software solutions at the 2018 BlackBerry Security Summits in London on September 12 and New York City on October 4. To register and view a full agenda for the BlackBerry Security Summits, please visit www.BlackBerry.com/SecuritySummit.
