PiiComm vs. carrier vs. VAR vs. OEM, vs. in-house device management: a comparison guide

23 September 2026

PiiComm differs from carrier, value-added reseller (VAR), OEM-direct, and in-house device management because it is a single Canadian-operated managed mobility services (MMS) provider accountable for the whole device lifecycle: sourcing, staging, mobile device management (MDM), support, repair, and secure disposal. For carriers and resellers, devices are a line item attached to a network contract or […]

7 best mobile device lifecycle management providers for Canadian fleets in 2026

22 September 2026

Every provider selling mobile device lifecycle management describes the same seven stages, so the stage list won’t help you choose. What separates the options is narrower than the marketing suggests: who physically touches the device at each stage, and in which country they do it. A provider that manages your policies from a console and […]

Automated endpoint management is going autonomous: what’s real and what’s not

17 September 2026

If you have been briefed on “autonomous endpoint management” in the past year, here is the short version: the direction is real, the analysts have formalized it, and almost nothing shipping today is actually autonomous. What vendors are selling under the AEM banner is assisted automation with a human approval step — recommendation engines, natural-language […]

RMM vs UEM: What Canadian IT leaders need to know about endpoint management

15 September 2026

If you manage a mixed fleet of laptops, smartphones, and rugged handhelds, you have probably heard RMM and UEM used as though they mean the same thing. They don’t. RMM (remote monitoring and management) is agent-based and telemetry-first: it watches devices and tells you how they’re doing. UEM (unified endpoint management) is enrollment- and policy-first: […]

Enterprise mobility trends and statistics for 2026 and 2027

14 September 2026

Last updated 14 September 2026. Every statistic below links to its original source and carries the date that source was published. Where the data is thin, contested, or simply doesn’t exist for Canada, we say so. Your device refresh was budgeted in the spring. By the time the quotes came back, the number was wrong […]

How to build an enterprise endpoint management strategy that actually scales

8 September 2026

Most enterprise endpoint management strategies fail for reasons that have nothing to do with the platform. They fail because they were never designed as a program; they accumulated as a series of reactive fixes, one tool and one workaround at a time. The organizations that get this right do three things in order: they build […]

Break/fix for enterprise mobile devices: what it costs and how to engineer it

2 September 2026

Break/fix in enterprise mobility is not a model you select from a menu. It is a physical event that will happen to every rugged device you deploy, and the only real question is how long resolution takes once it does. That number is set long before the device fails, by systems your organisation either built […]

6 best mobile device kitting and staging providers in Canada for 2026

1 September 2026

Kitting and staging is physical work. Somebody images the device, loads the applications, matches it to the right accessories, boxes it, labels it, and ships it to a site that expects it to work on arrival. Most provider pages describe the outcome and skip the two facts that decide the engagement: whose hands are on […]

10 best rugged device lifecycle management options for Canadian fleets in 2026

1 September 2026

Search for rugged device lifecycle management and page one hands you two different kinds of answer without telling you they’re different. Half the results are management platforms that enforce policy on a scanner. The other half are service providers who source that scanner, stage it, fix it when it breaks, and wipe it when it […]

Mobile endpoint management: why your hardest-to-manage endpoints aren’t laptops

1 September 2026

Gartner’s inaugural Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Management Tools, published 5 January 2026, formally confirmed what IT leaders have known for years: mobile devices are endpoints, and the market that manages them now spans “computers or mobile devices” under one definition. But the category label changed faster than the operational reality. For organizations running frontline fleets […]

7 best telecom sourcing services providers for Canadian enterprises (2026)

1 September 2026

Most “telecom sourcing” pitches collapse three different jobs into one focus: negotiating carrier contracts, auditing what those contracts actually bill, and buying the devices that ride on them. Those are three different companies with three different delivery models, and the one you need depends on which of them is costing you money right now. The […]

Endpoint lifecycle management: a guide to each stage

27 August 2026

Endpoint lifecycle management is the discipline of controlling an enterprise device from the sourcing decision through to certified disposal — and it is not the same thing as running an MDM platform. Most organizations manage two stages of that lifecycle well and three stages badly. The stages that get neglected — staging, repair logistics, and […]
