Solution Highlights:
Client required a low-cost device that could be purchased continuously in bulk. First Call Wireless recommended Samsung J3 handsets. After testing multiple MDMs, it was decided Samsung Knox worked best with Samsung devices and the applications associates used in the field. Client also needed to deploy devices to associates in the field and required post-deployment support. Each device is individually drop shipped by First Call Wireless to the end user. Client has a designated email and support number for end users and First Call Wireless also manages reverse logistics of damaged devices and former employees.
