A Guide to Using SOTI for Mobile Device Management (MDM)

Is every mobile device in your warehouse connected, secure, and effortlessly managed? It should be. Thanks to software like SOTI, mobile device management provides comprehensive solutions to keep your business running while minimizing downtime or security breaches. In this guide and webinar, we discuss how you can leverage the SOTI platform for your devices.

What is the SOTI One Platform?

SOTI One is an integrated suite of solutions that enables businesses to manage their mobile devices, applications, and endpoints through a single interface. Whether you’re dealing with Android, iOS, Windows, or other operating systems, SOTI One connects all your mobile devices, providing comprehensive management from a centralized platform.

The suite consists of multiple products, including our personal favorite, SOTI MobiControl.

Key Features and Benefits of the SOTI One Platform

1. Centralized Device Management (MobiControl)

SOTI MobiControl allows IT teams to monitor and manage all mobile devices in a unified interface, offering a clear view of your entire fleet. This minimizes the complexity of handling multiple device types and operating systems. MobiControl also supports bulk enrollment, streamlining the process of provisioning large numbers of devices quickly. (See more benefits of SOTI MobiControl.)

2. Enhanced Security with Kiosk Lockdown Profiles

Keeping business operations secure is paramount. MobiControl enables businesses to lock down devices with custom settings, ensuring that only approved apps and websites are accessible. This not only improves security but also boosts productivity by restricting unnecessary app usage.

3. Operational Intelligence with SOTI XSight

Device downtime is costly. SOTI XSight helps businesses prevent this by offering real-time insights into device performance, battery life, and operational trends. This proactive approach ensures that issues are resolved before they impact productivity.

4. Remote Control and Troubleshooting

One of the standout features of the platform is the remote control capability. IT administrators can access devices in real time to troubleshoot problems without requiring physical access. This drastically reduces downtime, enabling quicker resolutions and minimizing disruptions to business operations.

5. Streamlined Printer Management (SOTI Connect)

Managing printers across a business can be cumbersome, especially when dealing with large fleets. SOTI Connect allows businesses to monitor and manage their printers remotely, ensuring that firmware updates, configurations, and diagnostics are handled seamlessly. By automating printer management, SOTI Connect improves operational efficiency and reduces the potential for downtime.

6. Zero-Touch Enrollment and Automation

Through features like Android Enterprise, businesses can enroll devices into the MobiControl ecosystem with zero-touch enrollment. This means devices are configured and ready to go straight out of the box, further minimizing the setup time for new devices.

Use Cases for SOTI One

1. Warehousing and Logistics

Keeping track of inventory, ensuring smooth workflows, and maintaining connected devices is key in logistics. SOTI One helps warehouses manage their fleet of mobile devices to ensure that everything from scanning to communication runs smoothly and without interruptions.

2. Manufacturing

With SOTI’s kiosk mode and secure device management, manufacturers can reduce the risk of unauthorized access and improve worker productivity. By locking down devices to approved applications, manufacturers can also minimize maintenance return rates and operational delays.

3. Field Services

For organizations that have employees working in the field, SOTI’s remote control feature ensures that IT administrators can provide support in real time. This significantly reduces device downtime, ensuring that field teams can remain productive and connected at all times.
