1692 TomTom Telematics is to collaborate with SOTI on a project that will see the SOTI’s enterprise mobility management software, MobiControl, made available to manage TomTom PRO 8 series driver terminals.

SOTI MobiControl gives fleet managers complete remote control of the TomTom PRO 8 series, an open-platform device that is easily customised with apps to meet the needs of specific users and functions. Content and user profiles on devices are managed centrally, so drivers have access to the most appropriate and up-to-date applications for their specific role, without having to return to base.
 
SOTI MobiControl features enable managers to dynamically control user groups and policies, allowing access to apps, functionality and content based on a user’s role in the business. Access can also be determined based on geographical location. These features not only help to control app usage, but also to manage data costs, for example by not allowing users to download large files when they are abroad.
 
The integration will be handled by OrangeSeven, a specialist in MDM that SOTI has selected to provide all MobiControl solutions to TomTom worldwide.
