SOTI MobiControl
Chose SOTI MobiControl
I did not evaluate other tools than SOTI MobiControl. I read an article about Microsoft MDM. I think, that might be a reasonable competitor. The whole topic "mobile device management" is bigger than you might think at the beginning. And the challenge is that you need to work …
Chose SOTI MobiControl
SOTI MobiControl has long been the standard in UEM solutions. However, other solutions, while their licensing offerings may not always be ideal, could provide more cost-effective options capable of doing the same as SOTI. Most UEM solutions can support and provide the same …
Chose SOTI MobiControl
MobiXontrol allows more access to different types of devices. I also appreciate the ability to separate out the devices by type to make searching easier. The real-time access to what the user is seeing is much better with MobiControl.

The experience using SOTI MobiControl has been excellent as a user. My notebook and smartphone devices have the security policy applied and it works perfectly. I have all the apps I need to work installed, up to date and with no issues. All devices are tracked by the software and are safe in case of theft, and the information contained in the devices is erased remotely. Each group/user has their permissions specified according to what they need and that makes things even more secure. I recommend SOTI MobiControl for its ease of use and security and for not slowing down my devices.

I support other users with the help of this tool. I really like the remote support functionality. You can make screenshots or even capture videos. If you face network problems, the tool doesn't help at all. It might be helpful, if they would develop a kind of offline support mechanism. So that there is some kind of logging even when there is no network and we can check the logs afterwards (or do video capture while being offline, etc.).

We had a feature request. They accepted the request, but couldn't tell us whether the feature will be developed or when. I think this is not helpful for us as a customer. We do not always ask the SOTI MobiControl for help but other consultants. I think that is quite expensive.

I did not evaluate other tools than SOTI MobiControl. I read an article about Microsoft MDM. I think, that might be a reasonable competitor. The whole topic "mobile device management" is bigger than you might think at the beginning. And the challenge is that you need to work closely together with other departments like logistics or even development.
