Monitoring disk space is a basic but core component of proactive IT support, critical to reducing ticket volume and maintaining system health and stability. Running low on or running out of disk space can obviously be responsible for a host of issues and user complaints — from application failures to complete system crashes — so creating alerts for when drives fall below a specified threshold is a great way to head those off.

Mobile device management (MDM) is software that enables organizations to support, automate, control, and secure mobile devices that are connected to the workplace and that have access to organizational data. MDM software is needed for each type of operating system because they all function a little differently from one another. Android MDM is software designed specifically for mobile devices that run the Android operating system (OS).

Stanford’s monthly research on working from home reported nearly 13% of full-time employees are working remotely, while about 28% of other full-time employees are in a hybrid workplace, totaling about 41% of the workforce that works remotely at least part of the time.

94% of SMB (small to medium-sized) businesses state that they perform repetitive and tedious tasks, which can lead to employee stress and burnout. Fortunately, the creation of IT automation software actively works against these undesirable effects. IT automation software is programs and applications designed to perform these repeatable tasks without the need for manual execution.

With remote work and bring your own device (BYOD) practices on the rise, mobile device management (MDM) has become a necessity. Using mobile device management, IT teams are able to control, secure, and manage mobile devices, such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets. In this mobile device management (MDM) overview, we will discuss what MDM is, its importance in the IT world, and best practices to follow.

At the moment, Microsoft Windows is the most popular operating system in the U.S., with a market share of 32.63%. Due to the rising bring your own device (BYOD) trends and an increase in remote work, many employees are now using remote Windows devices to access organizational data and carry out business tasks. To protect confidential data and secure these remote devices, organizations depend on Windows mobile device management (MDM).
