Around the late 2000s, organizations increasingly started automating the administration activities that were otherwise being done manually. This market functioned under the name Client Management Tools.
We built Desktop Central right from scratch and launched as a Client Management Tool in 2005. Desktop Central, right from debut, stood apart from other vendors in the thoughtful provision of features like Distribution Server for bandwidth reduction, Power Management as a 'Go Green' initiative, etc.
Around 2010, mobile devices entered the radar of IT organizations. And in response, Mobile Device Management (MDM) was born. As mobility blurred the boundary between the personal and the professional, around 2012, MDM evolved into Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) which offered increased security. EMM also supported BYOD among other things. It was this adaptation to BYOD then, that helped us survive the pandemic now.
It continued to grow as a stand-alone market since CMT vendors could not easily absorb EMM due to architectural constraints. But in 2013, we catered to this need and introduced EMM in Desktop Central. We became the only vendor after Microsoft to unify EMM and CMT into a single product!
Following this, MDM got redefined to ‘modern management’ with the increasing adoption of Windows 10. Modern management denotes the endpoint management that is delivered via cloud-enabled services.
In 2016, Desktop Central was added to AWS and Azure marketplace. We are one of the first vendors to provide EMM capabilities as well as support to both legacy Windows OS and Windows 10. This way, we bridged traditional management and modern management. We also equipped the users with zero touch enrollment and autopilot mode.
Following the launch of Windows 10, around 2018, organizations increasingly started looking for a single vendor and a single platform to manage desktops and mobile devices. This lead to the convergence of CMT and EMM into Unified Endpoint Management (UEM).
Catering to this trend, we enabled users to automate day-to-day device management activities - from onboarding to retirement, across hybrid workspace and highly heterogeneous OS ecosystems (including chromeOS and tvOS) and endpoints like desktops, smartphones, tablets, servers, point-of-sale devices, thin clients, IoT, wearables, kiosks and other network components. In 2020, we launched Desktop Central Cloud.
We expanded to deliver requirements like robust remote control and security capabilities like DLP, anti-ransomware, compliance with HIPAA, PCI, PCI DSS, FISM, CIS, etc., that go beyond traditional and modern device management. Having advocated for security right from our founding, we continued to provide a secure operating environment to our users.
Going forward, we believe the market is marching towards a hybrid environment with the mix and match of on-premises and cloud instances, virtual machines and physical machines, conventional workforce and distributed workforce, office and remote users. And we are ready for that! While not exhaustive, our roadmap includes tight integration between Endpoint Security Management and UEM, along with a feature-set that meets our users' ever-evolving needs.
