My recent blog “Webalo is App Infrastructure” highlighted Webalo’s ability to generate enterprise mobile apps. Through a simple question-and-answer configuration process, a Webalo business user simply points Webalo at the desired backend data source and Webalo generates the mobile app. Webalo solves the CIO problem of scaling mobile data delivery to the massive levels demanded by the BYOD-era mobile workforce.
Citrix, a leading vendor in EMM (Enterprise Mobility Management), provides the other half of the enterprise mobility solution. It gives the CSO (Chief Security Officer) the device and app management, security, and control required to access critical enterprise data and applications from mobile devices. Webalo has integrated its self-service enterprise mobility platform within the Citrix Worx and XenMobile Infrastructure. The combination provides a complete “out-of-the-box” enterprise mobile app solution.
As a Citrix Ready Worx Verified partner, Webalo will be made available to over 250,000 existing Citrix customers and over 10,000 Citrix Resellers.
The enterprise mobile market is undergoing significant change as the focus of IT and enterprises has moved from devices alone to securing data across multiple device types that employees are using today and to the use of applications and enterprise data those devices are connecting with. Citrix is providing the mobility infrastructure to the former and Webalo is providing the app infrastructure and solution to the latter. With companies like Citrix providing the mobility infrastructure, enterprises are turning more of their attention to delivering enterprise mobile apps.
Webalo’s app infrastructure delivers enterprise mobile apps quickly, effectively, and at low cost. In particular,
- Webalo accelerates a company’s ability to deploy enterprise mobile apps … it is 100x faster than traditional mobile application development, a fraction of the cost, simple enough for business users to master, and powerful enough to allow users to take actions directly from their smartphones and tablets.
- Webalo provides a solution to CIOs who will need to scale mobile app development from several a year to perhaps hundreds or thousands of mobile apps a year with very little additional funds, and all within the Citrix infrastructure.
- Webalo enables business units and departments to build their own mobile apps, off-loading these tasks from corporate IT, which doesn’t have the time or resources, to accommodate the large number of mobile app requests.
- Webalo runs on all the major device platforms. Mobile apps are built once and deployed on all Citrix-supported device platforms.
- Webalo delivers this through a single Webalo client that is Citrix Ready Worx Verified and is available in the Citrix Worx App Gallery. The Webalo client resides within the Citrix container, allowing IT to set comprehensive policy-based controls such as the ability to remotely lock, wipe and encrypt all data.
As a Citrix Ready Worx Verified platform, Webalo gives businesses a single enterprise mobility infrastructure for confidently generating, securing and managing apps and content on iOS and Android smartphones and tablets. IT will have the necessary security and access policies they need, while giving end-users the mobile access to the enterprise applications and data they rely on to do their jobs.
