In July 2018, Gartner published their first ever Magic Quadrant for Unified Endpoint Management Tools (https://www.gartner.com/doc/3883574/magic-quadrant-unified-endpoint-management, get your free copy here: https://secure.vmware.com/46920_REG).  This was a notable development mostly as it marked yet another name and acronym for a set of tools that most IT departments have been using for a decade under different names. The term Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) was established to bring clarity to a significant technological evolution in a set of tools that has gone from being called Mobile Device Management (MDM) to Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) to the freshly minted Unified Endpoint Management (UEM). And while the earlier versions of these tools were largely focused on managing and securing smartphones and tablets, this new rendition brings traditional computing devices (laptops and desktops) into the same management environment.
