K–12 students and teachers rely heavily on mobile devices for learning and teaching, respectively, which means IT leaders need solutions to manage these endpoints.

In 2018, the demand for mobile devices in K–12 rose 10 percent in the United States, with sales rising from 5.5 million to 5.8 million compared with the previous year. 

With one-to-one device and BYOD programs now commonplace in K–12 schools, IT leaders need to ensure they have control over the myriad personal laptops, tablets and phones K–12 stakeholders use on a daily basis.
