esper.io vs. Scalefusion

esper.io helps manage devices to control how they are used and what software is allowed to be run on the device. This help us ensure proper usage of the device and also prevent all kinds of misuse of the devices. esper.io completely replaces the device interface and locks the devices preventing theft, misuse and abuse.

There a few things I wish I knew before committing to this software. 1. If you plan to track locations of devices then it drains battery life of phones quickly, I had to reduce the location ping to every 15 minutes to mitigate the poor battery performance. 2. The built in mapping on the Scalefusion site is not very useful, you can only map one device at a time. I had to write an app to map all the devices onto one map. I offered to sell them my map, they did not reply and have since copied it, so now they have group mapping but it is not as good as mine. (no satellite view options and does not use google maps)

We need this type of software, Scalefusion although clunky, it does function. And their prices are good compared to the competition. Note I have not tried the competitions software, just looked at their prices.

Installation is easy. There is a steep learning curve of what the software can and cannot do. It is also quite comprehensive, so the is much to absorb. The user interface is not intuitive, many setting are buried very deep.

The support is quite good, usually you can get a response answer within an hour, however many issues take quite a while to resolve.

esper.io allows for bulk configuration of deployed devices. esper.io is also easier to set up and start compared to other competitors. The software installs are smaller and quicker. Great support for different methods for onboarding devices.Support for various OS and Device configurations. Free for 100 devices; provide ample testing before committing to any purchase.
