Rating: 5 out of 10
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Scalefusion to manage mobile phones, track our teams, send broadcast messages, we have 70 licenses and use mostly android devices, with a few iPhones. We use location to redirect teams to assist others
Pros
- group messaging works well
- cannot be uninstalled
- you can tell who's phone is off
Cons
- battery life of phones is dramatically affected if location is used
Likelihood to Recommend
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)
