With workplace mobility on the rise, employees, contractors, and business partners require access from any device at any time and any place. This presents IT with a number of challenges, including securing information on end-user devices, managing access to corporate information, and quickly adapting to changes in the workforce.

21. Customer Success Story: Endemol Shine Nederland
Endemol Shine Nederland uses contract video crews in locations
around the world to create their shows
Preparing for a project took two weeks as the team had to set up,
secure, and ship hardware to a production site
Endemol Shine Nederland decided to provide contract video crews
with Amazon WorkSpaces to run on their own devices
The switch saved Endemol Shine Nederland 70% in PC capex,
30% in PC operations, and reduced preparation time to two hours.
