Workspace One Intelligent Hub provides a central console for an administrator to onboard end-user devices and applications to end-users to access corporate resources. It is an integrated digital workspace solution to simplify user experience through a single app, boost productivity and creativity.

Introduction

Traditionally employees were required to connect to a VPN to access corporate resources. Also, they needed to remember multiple ids and passwords for different applications. These methods are tedious and impact employee productivity. Workspace One Intelligent Hub simplifies this process by providing a single application to access the company application catalog, single sign-on (SSO) to access corporate resources, and no need to connect to VPN. The process of onboarding is also simplified for administrators providing a single console to register and control all devices through Mobile Device Management (MDM) capabilities.

What is Workspace One Intelligent Hub?

Workspace One Intelligence Hub provides end-users with an application to access corporate networks and applications on the enterprise catalog. End Users are first required to download and register themselves on the app. A single console is provided to the admin for onboarding and approving devices. Powerful collaboration and sharing capabilities help employees stay connected. Users can also access the corporate directory to call, message on company social, or mail their colleagues in a single touch. Groups can be created for exclusive projects, and order of hierarchy can be maintained. A common bulletin board that provides all company updates in order of priority is available as well. The single sign-on for the unified app catalog also enhances the user experience. Enterprise apps, SaaS based applications, and app store applications can all be accessed from a single platform with a single touch. The app deployment procedure is also hassle-free, and mass upgrading can be done from a single admin console.
