The story

HVAC StarPlus is a dedicated commercial heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration service contractor company that offers top-notch services across the United States. The team primarily takes over maintenance services, system diagnostics and repairs, and mechanical projects. The company excels in offering the best solutions to its clients coupled with an exceptional customer service experience. The company offers services across all major areas such as finance, technology, energy, project management and maintenance solutions. All these services are graded at an adequate and reasonable pricing point, considering long-term business relations at the top of their company strategies.

For improved technological advancement, the company thought of deploying iPads and iPhones to carry out the daily corporate courses. They used these devices to manage work orders, maintain reports, record employee working hours, store material records, maintain financial stability and much more. Deploying Apple devices for corporate engagements eased their workload to a great extent. Eventually, device management turned out to be a matter of concern for the team. They needed a solution that could automatically install applications and handle upgrades. A mobile device management (MDM) solution became a perfect alternative to their requirement.

Thomas Morrison, the Technology Specialist at HVAC StarPlus, started looking for an MDM solution that would fit in their budget. He tried out an MDM solution for some time but later on migrated from the platform as it failed to fulfil his requirements; it posed a number of issues which took away considerable amount of his productive time. He then found Hexnode and decided to try out the free trial Hexnode offered. He was convinced after a mere trial experience that Hexnode could be a perfect solution for the company. He quickly got in touch with the team and went forward with the purchase.

“It represented a good value for the company... it just takes a lot of the worry out of having smart devices in the field”

Hexnode helped Thomas to easily manage the Apple devices without investing much of his productive time. He could easily onboard the devices on to the platform via Apple’s Device Enrollment Program (DEP) supported by Hexnode. Setting up the devices was a breeze for him. He could single-handedly control and manage the devices. Now the employees need not have to visit the office physically for any concerns regarding the devices. Everything could be handled remotely and in no time.

“It is just easy to get new devices enrolled in the system and to push standard configurations.”

With Hexnode onboard, Thomas could install necessary applications on to the devices. All he had to do was purchase them from Apple’s Volume Purchase Program (VPP) and all the purchased applications could be pushed on the devices without any manual intervention. The apps could also be upgraded once the latest versions were available, that too without any manual assistance. All these and many more functionalities eased up his workload greatly.

“It makes application installation and maintenance a whole lot easier for us, new updates get pushed automatically.”
