Abstract

Over the past decade, the incorporation of technology in schools has been increasing rapidly because it has allowed students to learn more effectively, be more engaged, and experience personalized education. However, as the number of school devices increases, it becomes overwhelming for IT administrators to manage thousands of them because they have to manage the devices individually without a proper Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution which should be able to enable IT administrators to remotely control multiple devices at once. Nonetheless, since school IT departments are often one of the least funded with only one to three IT administrators on average and a low budget, they cannot afford proper MDM solutions as they mostly target corporate customers. To fix this issue, Mangopacks is developing a school-focused MDM solution: affordable, easy to use, and powerful with a vision of a future where all schools can use MDM solutions to effectively manage their devices.
