It's time to talk about a new amazing number (a number I'm very proud of) - the number 10.

We have used all of your valuable feedback to create an even more valuable version of Ivanti Device and Application Control with release 5.4.
In the last two years, we have seen the rise of remote and hybrid work, and with that, a proliferation of tools and apps needed to support critical communication and collaboration.

Stand-up meetings. Is anyone happy with them at this point? They were supposed to help teams work in a more agile manner but they were already controversial in the before times and moving to fully distributed teams hasn’t made things any better. The same old habits, the same tired questions. There must be something better, right? We began meandering syncs to replace stand-ups as an experiment at Honeycomb, but loved the results so much that we have adopted it across the engineering org.
It’s the second holiday season since the pandemic broke out but, with many brick-and-mortar stores reopened, will it be more like 2020 or 2019?

As the world increasingly works, buys, and communicates through native mobile apps. In 2020 there were 218 billion new app installs globally, 13.4 billion from the US alone.
