Enterproid Announces Divide Now Available For Apple iOS
iOS Support Extends Divide To Act As A True Cross-platform Application Workspace
NEW YORK, July 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterproid, the leader in enabling Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) mobility through enterprise-grade dual-persona technology, today announced Apple iOS support for its popular Divide(TM) platform. Together with Divide's existing Android-based counterpart, this announcement extends Divide's reach to cover the majority of the rapidly growing BYOD market.
"We are delighted to bring Divide to the iOS platform and are now capable of serving the vast majority of professionals and corporate IT departments worldwide," said Andrew Toy, CEO of Enterproid. "Opening our product to iPhones and iPads has been a top priority for us."
Divide creates an entirely separate, secure and cloud-manageable workspace on an employee's personal mobile phone or tablet. This unique approach ensures enterprise security and control without compromising personal freedom and privacy for the employee. Within this controlled workspace, Divide allows IT administrators to set a custom screen lock, wipe device data, push policies, and otherwise retain the same level of control as in classic Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions. Sensitive corporate data stays safe and within IT's control, while personal information remains private to the individual.
On iOS, Divide comes with a suite of business-class applications including Email, Contacts and Calendar. These applications provide the same native iOS experience that employees are used to, while additionally enabling enhanced enterprise-grade encryption and management capabilities such as governing how attachments are opened. Divide also provides secure and separate browser shortcuts for web apps, as well as the ability to integrate additional enterprise applications into the secure workspace.
"By separating company apps, data and information from their personal equivalents, businesses don't have to constantly worry about what their employees might be doing in their personal time and employees don't have to compromise their privacy," said Nicholas McQuire, Research Director Enterprise Mobility Strategies EMEA at IDC. "Many businesses globally are increasingly looking for solutions that deliver a great user experience, but cleanly separate personal and company data to reduce liability concerns and overall management complexity of deploying mobile enterprise applications and data."
Divide for iOS is currently available in the Apple App Store and Divide for Android is available in Google Play. Both products are free to download for individuals. Businesses wishing to have an enterprise-grade version of Divide can do so by purchasing a monthly subscription per user.
