Improve device and network security — quickly and easily
Turn Android into a business-class operating system with over 100 additional features that improve security and more with Mobility Extensions (Mx). Choose the features and applications your users can access on your devices with Enterprise Home Screen. Easily find lost and misplaced devices with Device Tracker, even if the device is powered down. LifeGuardTM for AndroidTM 1 makes OS security updates easy — schedule and update your devices over the air via your supported EMM/MDM. And you can easily monitor the status of your OS updates on an easy-to-use dashboard.
Drive device management time and cost to a new low
With StageNow, you can prepare a handful or hundreds of devices for use with the right settings, configurations and applications, all with the simple scan of a barcode or tap on an NFC tag. With StageNow’s Restricted Mode, a simple click deactivates the Google Mobile Services (GMS) that come standard with Android, improving device privacy — and you can easily reactivate at any time. With PowerPrecision Console, aging batteries that can no longer hold a full charge are easy to spot and remove — before they cause expensive downtime. And Device Diagnostics tests all main systems to determine if a device can be repaired on site, eliminating a needless trip to the Zebra Repair Center.
UNMATCHED TOTAL BENEFIT OF OWNERSHIP
Multi-year deployment and support
While the EC50/EC55 looks like a smartphone, the similarities stop there. The purpose-built for work EC50/EC55 is guaranteed to be available for sale for four years, versus 18 months for the typical smartphone — eliminating the complexities and cost of managing different models with different platforms. And product support is available for a total of eight years — the four years the product is for sale and an additional four years post sale period.
The power of a common Android platform
The EC50/EC55 expands Zebra’s portfolio of enterprise-class Android mobile, vehicle and tablet computers — already considered one of the world’s largest. The shared portfolio platform — including the OS, APIs and Mobility DNA tools — simplifies device management, application portability and IT support, very unlike smartphones, with platforms that typically change with each model.
Industry-leading security support for Android
Zebra’s LifeGuard for Android provides fully-controllable security updates for up to eight years. You get access to timely updates to address new and emerging threats; a report that lists eligible devices, the severity of the threat and all the device details you need to create a well-organized update plan; over-the-air remote updating, visibility into update status and more.1
Cut total cost of ownership (TCO) in half
The EC50/EC55 enterprise-class device may cost more up front than some consumer smartphones — but in the long run, simplified management, long lifecycles and tools that boost productivity can cut your TCO in half.2
