"More generic related things can be included in the services."
"The keywords menu is better than other MDM. They have an Out of Contact policy, which other MDMs don't have."
"The most valuable features are visibility and remote access."
"Because we have a custom, business-to-business applications, the solution's deployment features give us the ability to control the deployment of new versions. We can granularly decide which people or which phone receive updates. It's kind of like having your own "app store" and being able to control what you deploy on the phones... You can see how the deployment is happening; if it's going well or not."
"The Lockdown Kiosk Mode is very useful... When you have 9,000 people remotely using your applications, you want to make sure that they don't play with Facebook while they're supposed to be working... It also prevents installation of software that could be harmful or compromise the security of the phone."
"The product provides us with information about the incidents. It helped us block specific devices remotely."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I have experience with technical support. They are quite good. Also, they very quickly understand the issues and what are the requirements from my side. Response time is also good."
"It helps in enrolling, managing, and relocating the devices quickly."
"From my understanding, MS, as of 2021, will not maintain the product going forward."
"It would be a better option to have an on-cloud version."
"Most of the Microsoft partners, especially digitally, are separate. Personnel are business people, and they do not have technical expertise, so you end up as a company spending a lot of money training your staff and your engineers."
"More generic related things can be included in the services."
"The solution could be better integrated into Microsoft's other products."
"I do not like using Silverlight and Internet Explorer. The new 2019 version gets rid of that, which is one of the reasons why we are looking to switch."
"The Microsoft license cost could be lower."
"Stability can be fragile at times. If you are not attentive or make a mistake, it can cause problems."
"They don't have systems that are built for redundancy. You have one database that manages everything and, if that database crashes, you have a problem."
"Reporting could be better. When I try to run a report, it doesn't have a filter or even a feature where I can choose what I have in the report. That's been a struggle since the first time I used it so I just don't touch it anymore."
"Its user interface needs to be improved."
"SOTI MobiControl could improve by being more user-friendly."
"They should improve the lockdown feature."
"The management console could be improved to be a little bit more user-friendly. Some of the stuff is a little bit cumbersome, some of it feels like an engineering solution, but otherwise it's pretty good."
"I wish that I had some more tutorials and educational resources on how to use the product."
"In future releases, I would like to see a better configuration of the dashboard."
