10 Ways to Maximize Device Functionality with Zebra Mobility DNA

Durable hardware is only the beginning of a scalable modernization plan. After selecting a device that best matches your workflows, it is recommended that you continue to expand device functionality with software and applications to simplify crucial workflows and maintenance tasks. To facilitate this process, Zebra leverages its host of productivity applications -Mobility DNA- as they fit neatly within Android’s ecosystem. From deployment assistance to lifecycle management, Mobility DNA applications help lower operational costs by consolidating management workloads into one user-friendly solution. 

While there are several applications to choose from, the following ones have often made greater impacts on the modern supply chain:

  1. Expand Solution Longevity with LifeGuard – From 90-day security patches to ongoing OS support for 10 years, LifeGuard helps certify your device is safe and ready for action today and down the road. 
  2. Transmit Data Seamlessly with DataWedge – Integrate newly scanned data into your management applications without additional coding. 
  3. Accelerate Deployment with StageNow – Regardless of the size of your business and digital fleet, StageNow helps you prep Android devices by either scanning a barcode or tapping an NFC tag.
  4. Prevent misplacements with Device Tracker – Ensure devices are used and returned properly to minimize replacement costs with real-time device tracking. 
  5. Maximize Data Protection with Mobility Extensions (MX) – From government-grade encryption to multi-factor authentication, Mobility Extensions (MX) secures Android to withstand cyberattacks and protect network access. 
  6. Protect Uptime with Device Diagnostics – Test major systems and troubleshoot issues remotely to skip overbearing repair depot trips. This also helps drive down repair costs as devices can be serviced and re-introduced back into your workflows with less wait time. 
  7. Keep teams connected with Mobility DNA Wireless – Manage and optimize your WiFi connections to prevent dropped signals and target dead zones. 
  8. Capture more in less time with SimulScan – Accelerate workflows by scanning up to 100 barcodes at the same time with one trigger pull. 
  9. Enhance User Experiences with All-Touch Terminal Emulation – Convert legacy green screen applications into a touchscreen interface right out of the box, no additional configuration needed.   
  10. Reduce distractions with Enterprise Home Screen – Exclude unsafe and consumer applications from your device while specifying which applications a user can access.
