Chances are, this is probably the first time you’ve evaluated an MDM solution, and by now, you know there is A LOT to consider when evaluating vendors. But before you go signing any contracts, be sure you know exactly what you’re signing up for.

Join the ‘Three MDM Amigos’ (see speakers below) for a live-panel discussion on understanding how stuff works, what to look for, and go through examples of problems to solve. Specifically, the ‘Three MDM Amigos’ will discuss:

• What are you trying to solve?: failure to base your evaluation on actual business use cases is very common. “Customer 360” is not a business case! Make sure you know what’s important.
• What is your selection criteria?: learn how to structure a Proof Of Concept (POC) evaluation to avoid common pitfalls and assess important criteria beyond feature and function.
• What to look for?: understand how evaluations are typically conducted and what you need to look for at the end of the process; as well as, ways to identify core functionality vs. workarounds.

Register to attend the live-panel discussion OR to receive the on-demand recording once complete. We send out the on-demand recording within 24 hours of the live webinar.

It is easy to get caught up in the possibilities of what MDM can do for your enterprise. It can be daunting trying to decide where to start, what to measure, and what objectives to set. After all, not all data has the same value and not all data problems have the same impact. So what’s the best way to determine the scope of your MDM program?
