The internal Enterprise App Store has become a necessity lately for most firms trying to adapt mobility solutions completely within the enterprise IT infrastructure. Though the initial idea of an internal app store was to provide a platform for employees to access the internal enterprise apps but it has now grown to include the public apps from iOS or Android app stores as well. This provides businesses and employees to develop a curated list of apps useful for business requirements for employees to find and share.
Through the internal app store Apps can be easily distributed to certain employees reliably and safely, independently from a third party developer. The security mechanisms hereby prevent unauthorized usage. Some of the benefits include:
 Software Administration: Apps whether internal or third party can be managed via the app store and prevent usage of unwanted apps within the enterprise IT infrastructure.
 Software Distribution: The app store acts as a medium to distribute apps to certain group of people or certain employees requiring the app.
 Reporting: The app store platform provides a way to understand the usage patterns of the app and any requirement of modifications in the app.
 Over-the-Air Updates: Apps can be installed via the Enterprise App Store and can be updated automatically through Over-The-Air updates.
Finally, the enterprise app store in itself is not a static creation. It can be modified at any given time and can help remove or update apps as required. Suggestions from users or employees can be considered and reviews for the apps can be done after fixed periods of time.
