A conference call organized by Morgan Stanley with 4 chief information officers talked with them about Apples iPhone and its use in the enterprise. Only one of the four actively supports the use of the iPhone in their network (for the creatives) and the other three dismiss the handset with varying degrees of curiosity and contempt. How does your enterprise support the iPhone?
Apple is way behind BlackBerry in terms of centralized management of these devices, he said. Theyre starting to catch up, but in terms of being able to control and manage what is on the device, to configure the device, to do remote provisioning of the device, to make sure the device works we can do that for the BlackBerry; we cant do that for the iPhone.
