Edward Rose and Sons Builds a Secure Mobile Foundation with MobileIron CloudMOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Sept. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Edward Rose and Sons is a real estate development and management company that specializes in building apartment communities across the United States. It needed a way to accelerate regional growth and streamline core business processes by digitizing systems that were previously paper-based, such as leasing and apartment maintenance. Edward Rose and Sons deployed the MobileIron Cloud enterprise mobility management (EMM) platform as the secure foundation of a new mobility initiative. The company provides leasing and maintenance staff with company-owned iOS mobile devices and mobile access to critical business processes and apps. "We evaluated some of the leading EMM platforms and MobileIron Cloud solution delivered everything we needed and more," said Levi Johnstone, head of the technology engineering team at Edward Rose and Sons. "Not only can IT quickly set up all of the policies and configurations for each device, employees can securely access all of the apps and business content they need to start working within minutes of turning on their new devices."

Constructing a successful mobile program from the ground up Today, Edward Rose and Sons can easily administer and deploy applications through the Apple Volume Purchase Program (VPP), which is supported by MobileIron Cloud. VPP is ideal for automatically deploying Yardi, which provides all of the critical capabilities leasing agents use every day. With this app, agents can access all the tools they need to manage apartments, execute leases, perform background checks, and even transfer money between departments. Since deploying MobileIron Cloud, Edward Rose and Sons has enabled IT to simplify the employee experience by reducing the number of setup screens by 75%. This resulted in fewer user errors and help desk calls. By using DEP, IT can manage devices more securely by controlling which apps are on the devices and remotely locking or wiping data from lost or stolen devices. Device enrollment is also greatly simplified because IT can customize the end-user setup process through MobileIron Cloud. Improving customer experience with secure mobility Simplifying apartment maintenance from home "Thanks to MobileIron, our mobile program has gotten off to a great start," said Johnstone. "With MobileIron's multi-OS platform, we're looking forward to rolling out a BYOD program for employees who want to access company apps and data on their personal Android and Windows devices, in addition to the iOS devices we currently support."
