SOTI MobiControl Reviews

Our organization relies on Android devices for critical business operations within the retail sector. These devices are used for managing stocks, handling barcode operations, and likely supporting various retail applications. Here, SOTI MobiControl helps us manage and provide security patch updates and maintenance support for devices.

The product has valuable features for device management controllers and geofencing. It helps in enrolling, managing, and relocating the devices quickly. It enables the functionality to stop once it goes out of the box beyond limit boundaries. It is a very useful feature from a security perspective.

We are using SOTI MobiControl to control our corporate devices, which we have issued to our field staff to do some application performance.

It is a mobile device management tool that we can control through the mobile device. So, it's the corporate device to control. So every user needs to use only the app, only the application since there's a way that we have set things. Hence, they cannot do anything besides that.

The company is a pharmaceutical company. They run plasma centers. It's like collecting blood, but they collect plasma instead. The whole process is operated through mobile devices. They can't gather plasma unless these mobile devices work. It's a way of logging the customer in, checking their plasma, and saying that this is done on the machine now. The whole process is managed with these mobile devices. SOTI MobiControl manages these devices, and I know where they are and how they're working. I need to make sure they have the right software. I can turn them on or off, and I can remote control them from the support perspective. I don't deal with the software that they actually run. I deal with the fixing of those. For example, if I was a cellphone company, I don't have anything to do with your conversations on your cellphone, but I can turn it off and on, or I can fix it for you. My role is similar to that.

In terms of deployment, it is dealing with mobile devices that are mostly Android, and they're all over the world, but the servers are all on-prem. There is a cloud solution, but we don't use it.

The company's support is the best. That'd be the number one thing. You don't play with such programs for fun. There is nothing great about any of them. They're tools, and they all do a lot. They all do the same thing. Some are better, and some are worse. In my opinion, what makes SOTI better than the others is their support. Their enterprise support is very attentive and very good.

In terms of features, the remote control feature is what I use the most.

I have almost 800 mobiles for our distributors. What we can lock is just what we call QOS mode. We limit them to specific functionality on the phone to minimize the risk. We control because our app is not published in the Google Play Store. We push the updates manually using SOTI. We use it for device management and application control on those devices.

IT allowed us to have full control of our mobile devices that are used by the sales team despite being far from us.

I use the solution in my company for Android and iOS devices. The use case associated with the product was simple, as it was used for securing applications on mobile devices. It was used exclusively for Android and iOS devices.

The most valuable features of the solution are containerization and app control.
