The official launch this week of the Android 2.2 (a.k.a., “Froyo”) platform has been Google’s most significant step toward making Android enterprise-friendly.
The big news here is that Google has added several features that will give IT departments much more control over Android-based devices than they have in the past.
This is all obviously welcome news for enterprise users who want to bring their Android devices to work with them.
However, they shouldn’t expect to have full access to all corporate applications, as Google’s open source mobile platform will likely never match up with the security prowess of Research in Motion’s (RIM) BlackBerry devices.
