Managing a fleet of rugged tablets like the Algiz series—used in forestry, logistics, utilities, and more—can be complex. Thankfully, Handheld’s built-in MaxGo Mobile Device Management (MDM) suite offers a seamless solution. Best of all, it's free to use on all Handheld rugged Android devices.

Let’s explore how MaxGo streamlines deployment, boosts efficiency, and keeps field teams connected and secure.

1. MaxGo Manager: Setup, Grouping, and Insights

MaxGo Manager—the core of the suite—offers robust tools to manage devices with precision:

• Group-level configurations: Create parent–child hierarchies to apply general or specific rules (e.g., network settings, apps, permissions) across device groups.
• Remote troubleshooting tools: Monitor battery, CPU temperature, connectivity metrics, and signal strength in real-time. You can also uninstall apps, clear data, capture screenshots, or wipe devices remotely.

2. MaxGo Staging: One-Time Setup for All Devices

,MaxGo Staging delivers efficiency at scale:

• Define staging configurations—like app installations, network profiles, wallpaper setup—in a web interface. You can then deploy them across devices using barcodes, RFID, or project files.

This means zero manual setups device by device, saving massive time—especially useful for large rollouts.

3. MaxGo Kiosk Home & Kiosk Browser: Controlled Access

Need to lock devices down for specific tasks? MaxGo has you covered:

• Kiosk Home: Restrict device use to specific apps. Prevent user access to system settings and unauthorized usage.
• Kiosk Browser: Ideal for web-based apps. Lock the tablet to a list of approved websites or experiences via a tailored, HTML5-based browser. Plus, you can integrate data capture features like scanning.

Perfect for kiosk-style deployments, digital forms, or specialized entry-only workflows.

4. MaxGo Suite: Fully Equipped and Free

MaxGo isn’t just powerful—it’s free for all Algiz and Handheld rugged Android devices:

• Includes Manager, Staging, Kiosk Home, Kiosk Browser, and more.

You get a professional-level deployment and MDM system without additional licensing costs.

5. Benefits for Real-World Rugged Deployments

From forestry crews to logistics teams, MaxGo simplifies tasks and ensures devices remain mission-focused and manageable.

Conclusion

Combining the durability of the Algiz rugged tablet with Handheld’s comprehensive MaxGo MDM suite gives you a powerful, scalable, and cost-effective field solution. It’s an ideal match for organizations accelerating field deployments or needing streamlined device maintenance.
