## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Location Services no longer an option

*2017-09-27*

After recent update I cannot enable location services which means my phone is no longer compliant with my company’s policy.

### 1/5 — Location malfunction

*2017-09-26*

Updated this app this morning and now I cannot enable location services for it. At least prior to this update it pseudo worked - just had to use control app running in background. Now it appears broken.

### 1/5 — 9+10=19

*2014-10-24*

Useless…

### 1/5 — Where are installation instruction??

*2014-09-14*

Downloaded, but have no clue how to set it up.

### 1/5 — Sophos

*2013-04-29*

Needs improving

### 2/5 — Latest Update

*2019-07-17*

After installing the latest update, I cannot longer use LastPass to enter my password for me. As well as I need to enter the OTP twice before I can connect. Please fix

### 3/5 — Needs iOS 14 update?

*2020-09-23*

Installation of companies policy choked when downloading the mobile profile. I had set Microsoft Edge as my default web browser and the MDM profile just downloads as a text file. 

By setting Safari back to default, and then restarting the company on-boarding, the MDM got installed as expected.

### 3/5 — Could use some work

*2014-09-14*

Needs better integration with iOS for background syncing. Causes the Mobile Control server to ticker devices non compliant.

### 3/5 — Few niggles

*2014-07-15*

Clean looking app, but the "Synchronise now" link would be better if it was a button. It's not obvious that it's a clickable link. 

Also, the underlying messaging is quite poor. - the messages hardly appear in the messaging section because of a poor design. 

NB: version 4.0.2.3 - released on 26th June fixed a defect with the app sync feature.

### 5/5 — Good

Good security

### 5/5 — Solid MDM Solution

*2016-03-10*

This product has all the features I need and the cost is much more reasonable

### 5/5 — Works perfectly!

*2015-04-24*

User interface has been much improved and has lots of functionality.

### 5/5 — Simple.

*2013-10-07*

My iPhone works just as it did before.

### 5/5 — Great Product.

*2012-10-17*

Easy to install, configure and use. If I didn't already know what it was doing, I would think it wasn't doing anything at all!!! That's how good it is.
