Challenges With Mobility Management – Looking for a TEM Solution

Most people come to MobileSage because they are looking for a TEM Solution since they face numerous challenges when trying to manage their company’s mobile devices:

1. Paying WAY too Much

Organizations often pay for dozens of inactive lines, overage charges, and overpriced cellular plans by not frequently auditing and leveraging all available carrier promotions. One was paying $300k for security services they never deployed.

2. IT is Already Swamped

Businesses often offload the job of managing mobile devices to IT, but they are already buried with critical security and infrastructure projects and don’t have time to become mobility experts. They can get crushed when trying to stage and set up new phones–resulting in weeks of delays.

3. Security & Compliance Risks

Lost, stolen, or unprotected devices expose businesses to data breaches, and massive regulatory fines ($50k HIPAA violation for a single unencrypted phone). Or risked regulatory penalties due to missing security policies on employee phones.

You usually need HELP with a TEM Solution.

Alternatives

You could consider a few options…

Do It Yourself

But you don’t have time to review hundreds of carrier plans (so you wouldn’t even know what you can save, or negotiate). Nor, do you want to become a plan expert, or security guru staying up on every latest trick to hack your system—you already have a full-time job and need help with a TEM Solution.

Get Expert-ish TEM Solution Help

You could get help from a typical telecom expense management group, or a managed mobility service. Unfortunately, most don’t do staging and kitting, help with compliance, or contract negotiation, or aren’t experts with mobile security. And few are network or carrier-agnostic–so they can’t always get you the best plans.

The Big Question

So, how do you cut your mobility costs, reduce the burden on IT (who seldom have sufficient expertise or time for mobile deployment), while ensuring security and compliance requirements to maximize your ROI on mobility investments?

Perhaps you should consider…

Picture Your Old Life

Managing mobility was a constant headache. The IT team was drowning in requests—provisioning new devices, troubleshooting issues, and tracking lost or stolen phones.

Meanwhile, finance struggled to make sense of confusing carrier bills filled with hidden fees and inactive lines still being charged. Employees were frustrated with long setup times and inconsistent service, while security gaps left the company exposed to data breaches and compliance risks.

Despite efforts to cut costs, the company was overpaying for outdated plans and missing out on carrier promotions that could have saved thousands.

Your New Life

Now, mobility just works. Employees get their devices fast, already set up and ready to roll. IT isn’t stuck babysitting phones, finance finally has clean, predictable billing, and security gaps are locked down. Unused lines? Gone.

Overages? Caught before they happen. Carrier plans? Negotiated to the max. The company is saving big, headaches are gone, and everyone—from the CEO to the new hire, is happy.

Life is good!
