Mobility as a Service (Maas) | Cloud Based Enterprise Mobility Platform from Fiberlink

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is a cloud based, always on, Enterprise Mobility Platform™ with a superior cost advantage, ubiquitous mobile device connectivity capability and a real-time updating and enforcement software engine. A MaaS platform enables users to be singularly connected and have anywhere access to their applications and data while the business has everywhere control of it’s users, devices, applications, and data.

There have been other approaches and models to connecting, protecting and controlling mobile enterprise users but all have failed in one form or fashion. Clients, endpoint agents, and single purpose security applications integrated with a connection client have all fallen short of delivering binary, provable control of laptops, smart devices, blackberries, iphones and the rest of the mobile device strata. As a service-based solution approach, Mobility as a Service is the only credible operational model to cost effectively and continually control employees, their devices and their data.

Similar to a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution,  we believe and can prove that Mobility as a Service is the new paradigm for simplifying all aspects of deploying, managing, supporting, connecting and protecting mobile workers within the enterprise. The cloud-based approach, with requisite built in connectivity, security and compliance features for transparency and accountability will become “the new LAN” without physical borders of the IT world. The “ mobility cloud” will be the fundamental design of next generation IT architectures and MaaS will be the model for servicing all users and their devices.

Mobility-as-a-Service  



It’s worth noting that mobility is perfectly suited for a cloud-based service approach. This is because an Internet-based architecture is the only way to support and control mobile users who spend more time on the Internet than on the corporate network.

The Benefits of Mobility as a Service

Imagine your business without boundaries. Mobility as a Service delivers it. Mobility as a Service breaks down the corporate perimeter boundary to user productivity and IT control of mobile users and devices. It eliminates financial boundaries of what IT can accomplish without large infrastructure investments for the new mobile world. It reduces operational boundaries of growing and managing users that are more and more mobile and not attached to the corporate network. Most importantly, Mobility as a Service changes the game on managing the human boundaries of employee productivity, lifestyle and choice.
