Organized Device Management is Scalable Device Management

Endless possibilities, simple administration

Big device fleets need tools that are made to scale. With Esper’s granular device grouping, you can organize your devices in a way that makes sense for you — by hardware, location, OS, or anything else you can think of. Then manage your entire device fleet — or just parts of it — from a single location.

Why is Device Grouping Crucial for Large-Scale Fleets?

Managing a large-scale device fleet isn’t for the faint of heart. You’re simultaneously managing devices of different types, functions, and configurations as if they were a synchronized unit. And the bigger your device fleet, the bigger the risk if things go wrong. 

Without device grouping, when you apply changes to one device, you apply them to all your devices. Let’s say you’re pushing an update — without grouping you have to make a blanket change. What if the update isn’t compatible with certain devices? What if there’s an issue with the update? Too bad.

Grouping gives you a safety net. You can finely control the consequences of a single action, both positively and negatively. Push an app to a small group of devices. If the update fails, those devices are the only ones temporarily affected. Smaller blast radius, smaller problem for you to solve.
