N/A

Together, we are making history as we live through history.

 

As 2021 draws to a close, we at SOTI want to say thank you to our amazing employees, dedicated customers and passionate partners. Your collective desire to innovate and grow resulted in a year which will go down as one of our best ever.

 

Before heading into 2022 – and in no order – we are taking one last look at the year that was at SOTI.

 

And remember, none of these accomplishments and milestones would have happened if not for you.

 

So once again, thank you.

 

November: The Launch of SOTI XSight

Without doubt, the biggest event at SOTI in 2021 was the launch of the newest evolution to the SOTI ONE Platform, SOTI XSight.

 

Months in the making, built by an army of developers and designers and one of the biggest product launches in SOTI’s history, SOTI XSight is the game-changing diagnostic intelligence solution that enables the rapid resolution of app and mobile device issues.

 

In case you missed it the first time, there are four powerful pillars to SOTI XSight:

 

  • Operational intelligence1: Access data on key device performance metrics such as battery health, signal strength, app and data usage and device location.

 

  • Advanced diagnostics: Deliver faster first-call resolution with support tools like remote control, audio and video recording, rich data pulls and whiteboarding and annotating on the remote device screen.

 

  • Automated monitoring: Establish performance thresholds for things like battery temperature or low device storage and receive automated alerts when devices exceed them.

 

  • Incident management: Get real-time visibility into issues occurring in your mobile deployments. Track and link issues to ensure pervasive problems are uncovered and quickly addressed.

 

SOTI XSight will revolutionize how organizations across all industries monitor the performance of their mobile devices and provide immediate, remote support when there’s a problem. Device downtime is minimized, and device ROI is maximized.

October: SOTI ONE Platform Now Manages Glass Enterprise Edition 2

 

Wearable technology in the enterprise is growing as by 2027 the market is expected to be valued at over $22 billion USD.

 

Those devices must be managed and in October, SOTI announced that the SOTI ONE Platform now manages business-critical Glass deployments. That means the same features, capabilities and benefits the SOTI ONE Platform provides other devices such as tablets, smartphones and rugged devices are now available on Glass:

 

  • App development: Build apps for Glass such as barcode scanning apps with SOTI Snap.

 

  • Device enrollment: Get Glass devices into the hands – or would that be on the faces? – of workers quickly and easily with SOTI MobiControl.

 

  • Remote troubleshooting: With SOTI XSight, IT support staff can literally see and experience what the end user is to identify and resolve issues on the first call.

 

When one of the world’s most innovative platforms meet one of the world’s frontrunners in wearable technology, good things are going to happen.

July: SOTI South India Next Gen Roadshow

 

The pandemic didn’t stop SOTI from presenting its annual South India Next Gen Roadshow.

 

During this virtual campus recruitment drive, more than 8,500 eager students registered to learn about SOTI and the great career internship opportunities available. For those who think they have what it takes, they had the chance to showcase their skills and knowledge through a challenging online coding test followed by an HR and technical interview.

 

South India is a hotbed for engineering students who are ready to transform technology with their unbridled passion and innovative ideas. It’s always a pleasure to meet them face-to-face, even if it was done through a computer screen in 2021.

 

And we can’t wait to do it all again in 2022, hopefully in person.

March, July and September: New State of Mobility Reports

 

In 2021, SOTI continued its tradition of releasing State of Mobility reports. Collectively, SOTI interviewed over 7,000 individuals from around the world and the answers they shared provided valuable insights into where technology is today and where it should be going tomorrow.

 

Two of this year’s reports focused on industries hit hard by the pandemic: retail and transportation and logistics (T&L). The third looked at the overall state of mobility.

 

Thank you to everyone who downloaded and shared these reports. We certainly hope you find them valuable, and we have more in-depth reports planned for 2022.
