Perhaps my understanding was incorrect, but I thought that iTunes would
not sync data from like Office2HD or Notability. (I see testing in my
future)

For corporate use I would establish a clear mandate of sync to iTunes to
back up your data; you are responsible for it, not IT. Being able to
sync over wifi should help with this as they don't have to deal with
adjusting cableage.

To the best of my knowledge, you've basically got two options for
backing up iDevices: iCloud, and iTunes.
Ignoring entirely the pig's breakfast Apple tends to make out of
online services, iTunes is still the superior option for this,
because (provided you have encryption turned on for the backups)
it'll grab the credential store as well, meaning that after restore
you don't have to stuff creds into 40 apps by hand.
That said, I'd not trust local storage on an iPad for anything
"Important," which is why most of the stuff I use syncs with "the
cloud" via Dropbox, Evernote, etc. If my iPad gets snatched, I'm out
some time to get a new one, but I haven't lost data.
How difficult this is going to be depends largely upon your
userbase, of course.

Does anyone know if such a beast exists? What does your $employer
do to back and protect the data on iPads?
