Enterprise Mobile News results (Jan/Feb 2016)

In this month's round-up of the hottest topics in mobile computing, top mobility news is covering the slightly slower period of both January and February. To add a bit of excitement I request that you read the next sentence using a movie announcer voice: The worlds' greatest news gathering and research process ensures only the hottest, most topical, exciting, and dramatic Enterprise Mobile News articles are summarised for your reading enjoyment. Ok, actually I just get it from Google & shove it into WordClouds & do a few tweaks using my usual unregulated and completely unsanctioned ETD (extract, transform, and display) process.

Of course MWC in Barcelona and Apple's discussion with the FBI add a bit of spice to the last couple of months. Samsung has moved up a little in this edition however Apps, Security, and Windows are still the hottest topics with the largest share of news articles.  The key topics in Enterprise Mobility this month are:

Google news results for Enterprise Mobile (Nov 2015)

Welcome to this month's round-up of the hottest topics in mobile computing. All the hard work was done by Google & Wordle with findings massaged through my unregulated and completely unsanctioned ETD (extract, transform, and display) process.

Last month, Android's Marshmallow and "Cloud" dominated in the world of Enterprise Mobility. In this month's word cloud you can see that Microsoft and Apps are featuring prominently. The key topics in Enterprise Mobility this month are:

• Microsoft & Windows - plenty of articles this month, details below in the vendor section.
• Apps - it comes as no surprise that the term "apps" is the hottest mobile search term, correspondingly much of any given month's analysis, articles, and reviews are dedicated to mobile applications.
• Security & Management - when it comes to business and information technology this topic continues to feature prominently. This drives up complimentary terms for example "data" with an abundance of analysis boldly bantering concern demanding determined direct data damage discontinuation equated exactly to lackluster leaking losses.  

Now on to the top of the top, that is the top vendors & solution providers in the area of Enterprise Mobile. Please let me know if you would like to see additional organisations in this list:

• Adobe - adding to Microsoft's word cloud dominance this month with Acrobat for Intune and to the Security & Apps categories with an eSign Manager App announcement.
