8 8 Confidential How to position Horizon Workspace against competition? Crowded offering from start-ups  Known and established vendor  Solid reputation for delivering robust product  Understands enterprise IT needs Trusted enterprise vendor Many point-solutions with no integration  Centrally manage and entitle users to corporate assets based on policy  Simplify the complexities of the multi-device world with a single management platform Centralized and integrated IT management Consumer-oriented solutions lack comprehensive security  Secure access to corporate assets on mobile devices  Enable employees to securely collaborate with external parties  Ensure compliance and audit trail Enterprise-grade security and compliance Low user acceptance increases risk  A single Workspace for accessing all corporate assets regardless of the device  Maintain intuitive & native user experience  Separate corporate assets from personal ones Focused on end- user adoption Alternatives

9 9 Confidential Functional Competitive Categories CategoryFunctional descriptionShortcoming Cloud-identity management Used to initiate, capture, record and manage user identities and their related access permissions to Private Cloud or Public Cloud assets. Mainly providing Single Sign On to cloud-based apps. No Windows or other apps. File & Sync Allows users to upload/synchronize files that could then be accessed over the internet from any device, by the same user or possibly by other users, after a password or other authentication is provided. Many products offer cloud-only deployment. No integration into a workspace MDM Enables to remotely manage and control mobile devices through policies defined at server level and sent Over The Air (OTA) to the device. Typical policies include password enforcement, hardware lockdown and wipe the all device. Low user acceptance in BYOD since it restricts device capabilities MAM Enables to manage apps and distribute them OTA to smartphone, adding manageability capabilities to the applications, so corporate content is separated from personal. Capabilities include data containment, data encryption at rest, VPN tunnel and wipe of corporate assets only. Applications need to be modified so they can be applied the security policies
