IT has been trying to deliver apps and data securely to any device for years. Any device means phones, tablets, PCs, and Macs. It means Android, ios and Windows.

Workspace as a Service makes it simple for IT and end users.
For IT, we can deploy a pilot in 60 minutes because we don’t need to install anything new in the datacenter.
Once the pilot gets going, end users can access their apps and data on their own devices and judge the quality of the user experience.
If end users like IT can start with a small number of users for $120/user/year. If they need more, they can add more capacity.
We are also doing some really interesting things with big data for security and visibility. But more on that in another session.

The first key to a workspace is frictionless access. When you try to access work remotely from your PC today, it can take you minutes. You boot your PC, login to the PC, fire up VPN, login to the VPN, fire up a browser, and login to sharepoint. With Workspot that process takes you two seconds. You tap on Sharepoint and you access sharepoint.
Second a workspace is one place where you can access all your apps and data – whether the resource is behind a firewall or in the cloud, whether the resource is a web app or a windows apps.
Third a workspace needs to be available on any device. Phones, Tablets, PCs and Macs.
