It isn't customizable as such like Android, and I have a set field to play. Yet, that is anything but a central motivation to hate this OS.

Chose iOS
iOS is way beyond Android in terms of centralized management. It is way more fleshed out in terms of features, and Android management has all but been abandoned at this point. iOS is still behind Chrome OS, particularly in an educational setting, but there are genuine tradeoffs …

I would rate Android and iOS equally, but for our business iOS seems to be better suited to the client base who are more familiar with it already (via personal devices.)

Chose iOS
The software updates have a wide coverage for iPhone models and I love updating software for additional features and/or improved software stability. It has also genuine feel of the phones they offer. Easier to set up and use. It helps me do more productive tasks. If I have the …

Chose iOS
Android is good more most people and is widely used by home users. iOS does seem more business orientated and professional. By this I mean the single button and apps are kept simple and to the point for business users. I do use this for home use as well and have had no …

Chose iOS
The biggest issue is that iOS protects you well above Android. Android is known for getting infected as its OS is not developed the same way as Apple's. Apple has a strong security model and has shown that it can fight off any known hacker and/or virus files. iOS is …

Chose iOS
Although I have tinkered with an android device, its operating system was much more complex and harder to work with. Many times, carriers bundle their own settings apps, which can confuse the end user about what app to use to change a certain setting. With iOS's delta updates …

Indeed, it's super. OS makes it the most feasible item right now on the lookout. It's smooth, and it will not slack even following 3-4 years settling on it. A wise speculation choice for an innovation.

Cons
  • Some of the security features can get in the way of organizational management, requiring careful consideration of the configuration.
  • There are a lot of design choices that are consumer-first that you have to work around with institutionally-owned devices.
  • There are some hard limitations, like apps not having direct access to network interfaces for WiFi scans.

  • Software packages are not always the latest version.
  • Some are following EU and non-GPL regulations very strict.
  • another distro that fell victim to systemd.

Usability
In all likelihood, common users will either already have experience with iOS on their iPhones, or will pick it up quickly. The UI is generally simple and mostly visual. Power users, on the other hand, may feel constrained by the inherent limitations built-in. Root access, terminal commands, and deep customization are not really to be found here.

Lots of help articles online for just about everything under the sun. I have never personally had to engage Apple's support team to comment on their helpfulness.

It is way more fleshed out in terms of features, and Android management has all but been abandoned at this point. iOS is still behind Chrome OS, particularly in an educational setting, but there are genuine tradeoffs that might make it a better fit for a given organization, and in fact, we do regularly deploy both iOS and Chrome OS devices.

Return on Investment
  • Positive as far as cellular usage, phone tracking, and security for our users.
  • Negative as far as battery replacement on older phones.
  • Costs would be similar to android phones so security/simplicity is our main point here.
