BlackBerry beefs up Android and iOS device management: Is BES now its crown jewels?

BlackBerry's management software is seen by many as one of the company's biggest assets, especially after its first batch of BlackBerry 10 smartphones failed to excite.
BlackBerry's new CEO John Chen acknowledged as much in a letter to customers earlier this week when he said "We know that BlackBerry devices are not for everyone. That's OK," as part of an attempt to persuade customers to stick with BES despite being wooed by rivals "enticing you to switch off your BES".
The company on Tuesday released the latest version of its mobile device management package, BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) 10.2, which it said is being tested by companies including Morgan Stanley, Boeing and Aneurin Bevan University Health Board, as part of an 'early adopter' programme.
