Samsung Unveils New Galaxy ‘Enterprise Edition' Devices

Galaxy devices now available for the first time in the UK with a package of business services

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd recently officially launched the new Galaxy Enterprise Edition in the UK, a range of flagship mobile devices with a complete package of mobile technology and services designed to give customers more choice, control and protection. Packed with the latest smartphone features, the new Enterprise Edition is fit-for-business and designed to deliver multiple efficiencies and savings to corporate customers.

With many businesses managing large, disparate workforces or teams in the field, the new Galaxy Enterprise Edition makes it easier to configure, update, deploy and run mobile technology across organisations at scale — ensuring customers are always securely connected with the latest reliable technology to keep teams working and on the move.

Unique features of the Galaxy Enterprise Edition include:

• Knox Configure: more control over settings, restrictions, apps and other mobile content, allowing businesses to configure devices remotely and get the workforce connected faster.
• Enterprise Firmware-over-the-air (E-FOTA): easier-to-manage mobile firmware and security updates as well as the ability to remotely update the OS across the entire Samsung fleet.
• 4 Year Security: 4 years of regular firmware updates^[1] so businesses can be sure their fleet of devices have the latest Android and Samsung security patches.
• Extended Product Lifecycle: all Galaxy Enterprise Edition devices come with an extended product lifecycle, ensuring users have the same device, bringing continuity to a mobile fleet^[2].
• 3 year enhanced support: Galaxy Enterprise Edition devices give users 3 years of an enhanced service maintenance, including next business day responses, ensuring the mobile technology continues to perform.
• Superior Protection: All of our devices are protected by Samsung Knox, our defence-grade security platform built from the chip up. Business users can rest assured, knowing that their data stays secure.

Conor Pierce, Corporate VP at Samsung Electronics UK and Ireland commented: “More business, less work; that’s the commitment we make to businesses when they sign up for Samsung’s Enterprise Edition devices. The fact is, workforces are becoming more fluid and flexible and mobile technology solutions are becoming ever critical to maintain team connectivity and communication. We’re so excited to bring the new Samsung Galaxy Enterprise Edition to market at a time when businesses are looking to drive down costs and drive up productivity. Our out-of-the -box solutions mean customers can easily set up and run an enterprise mobile ecosystem without hassle.”

Steve Beech, IS Project Manager of Merseyside Police has praised the Enterprise Edition devices: “The introduction of Enterprise Edition devices from Samsung allows us to plan for the future in confidence, knowing that the devices will be available and supported. Security is of paramount importance and the Enterprise Edition devices ensure we meet all our security requirements utilising Knox E-FOTA and 4 years security patching. Knox Configure allows for a smooth device set up and rollout. The Enterprise Edition devices from Samsung provide Merseyside Police a truly complete solution with a single procurement offering.”
