Wavelink announced Avalanche 5.4
January 2013 by Marc Jacob
Wavelink, a LANDesk Software business unit, announced availability of its newest mobile device management and wireless infrastructure management software. Wavelink Avalanche 5.4 addresses the growing integration of traditional ruggedised devices and consumer smart devices so IT professionals across many industries can confidently manage, secure and deploy a variety of devices and infrastructure components using the strength, features and functionality of the Avalanche platform. From a single console and through an assortment of delivery mechanisms, Avalanche 5.4 offers simple enrollment, device configuration, device security policies and remote control management.
Avalanche 5.4 is available through on-premise installation, cloud-based SaaS (Avalanche On Demand) and as a hosted offering (Avalanche Managed Services). The solution reduces the time, costs and risks associated with managing both consumer and ruggedised business-critical mobile devices by providing new capabilities such as:
· Optimised support of the popular iOS6 and Android platforms
· A forced application push option that deploys applications to the user’s device on demand
These new features are in addition to current features, including software and configuration management options, mobile device security, remote help desk, location-based services, alerts and reports, and infrastructure management capabilities. IT managers in a number of industries, such as retail, healthcare, government and others can more easily configure and manage both consumer and ruggedised devices that perform mission-critical tasks, including performing inventory lookup, point-of-sale (POS) functions, field service operations and securely sending clinical data.
