Finding Your Way Around the SOTI MobiControl Console
The SOTI MobiControl web console lets you enroll, organize, and administer your devices from a single location. This help topic will help you familiarize yourself with the SOTI MobiControl web console so you can maximise your device management activities.
The SOTI MobiControl web console provides many tools, each of which handles a different aspect of device management. To select a tool, open the ☰ menu in the upper left corner of the console or, in the legacy console, select a tab along the bottom.
Additionally, legacy views have platform tabs which correspond to device families such as Android Plus, Apple, or Linux. You can only perform actions on devices in the selected device family. For example, the Content Library feature is not supported on Windows CE devices and therefore the entire Content Library view disappears in that platform. Other, more subtle restrictions include hidden panels or context menu options.
