Using Packages

SOTI MobiControl uses packages to deliver applications, scripts, or files to your devices. You can create packages on the SOTI MobiControl web console. You can also create packages using Package Studio, a free, standalone application from SOTI. Create a package that includes instructions and the files you want to install. Add multiple files to a single package to compress them, enabling faster transmission of software and data over low-speed network connections.
Restriction: Packages are only available for the following platforms:
  • Android Plus
  • Linux
  • Windows Mobile/CE
  • Windows Classic (Desktop)
  • Windows Modern (Desktop)
Tip: Download Package Studio from the Packages view (see Using Package Studio for information on creating packages in Package Studio).
The Packages view of the SOTI MobiControl console.

After creating your package, send it to your devices using a profile (see Using Profiles). View detailed package information in the package's Package Details tab.
