Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Great and prompt technical support! When I have an issue or question, I can always get an answer within the day. Integration was much easier than we expected and it will facilitate a large scale roll-out of our platform. I am very impressed. The ability to provision and enroll devices with Esper is seamless and fast with QR and/or Zero Touch Provisioning. Their plethora of features help us achieve all tasks easily through their intuitive and simple user interface, especially their Remote Diagnostics feature, which helps control and debug all our devices without having to physically be present. Esper also secures all our devices in the field. Easy to use and amazing functionality, access any device from anywhere and look at live screen, update any app at any time, perform reboots and control individual device setting remotely, best you can find. Cons Nothing at this moment, extremely happy with the service and product. I had no issues with the product nor the support. No negatives to speak of. The solution is limited to Android. My only reason for giving four stars: new features are just around the corner. The company is growing and adding features I need with every release. Some minor map location and devices going offline glitch which can be fixed.
