Venn vs. UEM
Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) was built for managing devices – Venn was built for managing work. While UEM solutions like Intune take over the entire device, Venn isolates and protects (only) work data and apps on a user’s PC or Mac. No full device management.
UEM Takes Over the Entire Device. Venn Just Secures What Matters
Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) was designed for a work landscape where IT controlled every device. But in the era of remote work and BYOD, employees expect to use their personal devices without giving IT full control – in fact, they demand it.. UEM requires intrusive agents, complex configurations, and often creates privacy concerns that lead to pushback and workarounds.
Venn offers a better way. Instead of managing the entire device, Venn creates a Secure Enclave on only a portion of a BYOD computer, isolating and protecting company data and applications – while leaving the rest of the device private and untouched. IT gets the security and compliance they need, and employees maintain their personal privacy.
