Esper caters to Android devices and offers the most flexible solution while controlling assets. In addition to custom APKs and Play Store apps, you can create custom web apps which have been very helpful. Device labeling appears on the screen, which is excellent compared to printed labels for assets. Remote viewing devices through the console makes troubleshooting or assisting users possible without needing a 3rd party subscription. Support for kiosks and those with multiple apps, plus the ability to provide access to select device settings, ensure users have access to everything they need to utilize the device more completely without sacrificing security. Support has been excellent, and Esper takes feedback and acts on it. Bugs are fixed, suggestions are acknowledged, and they make their way into development if they add value.

There is no mobile app for management or a mobile version of the management dashboard; you must use the desktop site. Blueprints do not always apply and may require multiple deployments. While you can update some items individually while viewing a device record, several settings can only be toggled in a blueprint that involves editing and applying, which isn't as convenient. For example, I've duplicated a group and blueprint but toggled settings to allow the Notification Bar to allow File Transfers while connected by USB since disabling notifications doesn't allow toggling how the USB connection is utilized. There is no way to view your apps or app deployments. You can redeploy a blueprint or use Pipelines to ensure apps are pushed out, but if you want to see what devices or devices in a group have what apps or a specific app, you must view the device's Apps tab. Some dashboard screens are windowed with their scrollbars like iframes and are awkward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
