Honeywell SOTI partnership to offer security, remote management to a million industrial mobile devices

Honeywell and enterprise mobility management (EMM) provider SOTI have partnered to remotely manage more than one million devices worldwide. The collaboration between Honeywell’s mobile computers and SOTI's mobility management solutions will allow businesses to improve hardware lifecycles through remote monitoring, diagnosis and repair. The SOTI ONE Platform, protects corporate data on mobile devices through a suite of services. This enhances data security and facilitates software installations. It also provides smoother integration with enterprise IT systems.

How this partnership will help other companies
Honeywell’s partnership with SOTI claims to bring greater accuracy, time savings and reduced troubleshooting costs to customers. The companies have worked together to help thousands of organisations maximise their asset performance, including transportation and logistics providers.

SOTI provides complete lifecycle management of Honeywell devices through the SOTI ONE Platform. This simplifies security and management through a single, easy-to-use interface. This has helped lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) and improve the return on investment (ROI) for retailers, transportation and logistics companies, healthcare providers, government workers and more.


Once devices are at the end of their lifecycle or customers want to upgrade their devices, Honeywell will repurpose many of the internal components to ensure critical parts are available when needed in their spare pool inventory. This will also help reduce the environmental footprint of e-waste.

Honeywell’s rugged devices: What are they
Honeywell’s rugged devices are built on the Mobility Edge platform. It is a unified hardware and software platform that offers customers a stable option and a potential competitive advantage with yearly upgrades. Designed for Android, Mobility Edge devices share a common core platform, enabling faster development and deployment of software and security patches. With the Honeywell Android 14 guarantee, the life expectancy of a device also expands further, helping decrease TCO and increase ROI.
