I was the Airwatch admin at a former job. I despise the product. Problem is that all the MDM solutions out there suck. It's a matter of who sucks the least. Or who provides the features you want and sucks the least. Hopefully since AW was acquired by VMWare they have gotten better but I don't know. The main issue is that all of those products, except for Good, are really new products and the market literally exploded over night. They can't keep up with demand so things got sloppy.
At HealthSouth we also had Good. We bought a couple hundred licenses but nobody would use it. Nobody wanted to use the Good app for mail on iOS. Everyone wants to use the native email app. Good doesn’t allow that. If your goal is to simply get email onto a personally owned device and do that securely then sure use Good. If you want to manage that device and use its built-in features Good is not a fit for you.
