• 4:15 PM – Modern Distributed Workforce Management – Will Wakelin (Hivemind Solutions)
This session will assume a basic understanding of what an MDM is but also specifically what MeM as a product is.
1/3: Run through of what MeM is, where it’s come from (roots in SCCM, now MeCM) and where it’s heading (integration with MeCM as part of the same product) as well some of the more recent developments.
2/3: Why MeM. Security and management ease in the distributed workforce. Technologies that are enhanced by MeM such as PowerApps that utilise mobile devices and are distributed via MeM.
3/3: Run through of how people are underutilising MeM and some of the problems faced with it (basic troubleshooting know-how and integration with PowerBi). Q/A
Participants will gain an understanding of the importance of MeM (Microsoft Endpoint Manager) in today’s distributed workforce. Use case scenarios, such as interaction with other technologies as well as security benefits and requirements. I’ll also be hoping to discuss where people are getting MeM wrong.
LEVEL OF ACTIVITY: Intermediate
