Additional DetailsNGO and volume discounts are available.ISL Online's pricing model considers the number of licenses purchased, which determines the maximum number of concurrent users within the organization. A concurrent user is defined as anyone running one or more sessions simultaneously from any device. There are no restrictions on the number of ISL Light users within a company or the remote devices managed. For example, with three licenses, an unlimited number of people in a company can use ISL Light and can access an unlimited number of remote devices, but only three users can use it concurrently. When one of these three users ends their session, a fourth user can begin their session, and so on.

Well suited : AirDroid's bulk enrollment and policy management features make it highly effective for large-scale device deployment and management. The remote control and troubleshooting capabilities of AirDroid MDM facilitate quick problem resolution without physical intervention. AirDroid allows for secure containerization of work-related data on personal devices, ensuring the separation of personal and professional use. Not suited: AirDroid Business is designed for general mobile device management and may not cater to highly specialized device types or industries. For organizations with minimal IT capabilities, a simpler MDM solution with more streamlined features might be a better fit.

ISL light is suitable for anyone who plans to provide remote assistance services on a medium to large scale. Due to the high entry price, it is less suitable for consultants with a smaller number of clients or remote stations that need management. Their smallest package in which minutes are rented does not seem suitable for most cases.

  • Need a control toggle at least on AlwaysOn. User moves the mouse and you lose all control instantly.
  • Clipboard features are a bit wonky still, and your clipboard seems to get emptied a lot. So if you're trying to copy and paste you might lose something
  • Passwords for the systems are saved per machine, so if you work from multiple devices it can be tricky if you have complex passwords

Everything works well and quickly, and that's all we need. ISL Light always works, and we've never had a situation where the server was inaccessible or the website was down. It simply gives us a 100% guarantee that we can always log in to our customers' systems. We can install the ISL Light client at our customers' sites without any problems, even though security is high.

AirDroid Business is known for being easy to use and works with Android, iPhone, and Windows devices. It's particularly good at letting IT staff fix device problems remotely. It's also budget-friendly, making it a good choice for smaller companies.
On the other hand, Microsoft Intune works well with other Microsoft products like Office 365 and Windows. It's super secure and has many features. It's really great if most of the devices in a company use Windows. So, if a company wants an easy-to-use solution that works with many different devices, AirDroid Business is a good choice. But if a company already uses many Microsoft products and needs top-notch security, then Microsoft Intune might be the better pick. We decided with AirDroid because we have more Android devices compared to Microsoft OS Devices.

The main reason was price initially, after TeamViewer jacked up the price 3 fold come covid in start of 2020, told them to get stuffed and went elsewhere, back then they had a good reliable product, then after I switched to another provider, the came crawling back and offer me the same price I was paying before the COVID tax (3 times increase in price) like I said, told them to get stuffed, ISL on the other hand didn’t increase their price when covid started, so have been with them ever since.
