SureMDM integration makes deploying Android warehouse scanners dramatically easier for Business Central users

Insight Works, a leading provider of warehouse and manufacturing apps for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, today announced the availability of SureMDM device management as an add-on for Warehouse Insight and WMS Express. Powered by 42Gears, SureMDM gives IT teams centralized control over their Android scanner fleet — and reduces device deployment to a single step.

For warehouses running Warehouse Insight or WMS Express, getting Android scanners deployed has traditionally required IT staff to configure each device individually. SureMDM eliminates that process. Once enrolled, a new scanner can be fully configured by scanning a single barcode — Warehouse Insight or WMS Express is installed, settings are applied, and the device is automatically locked to the app. For businesses managing multiple locations or scaling their device fleet, this fundamentally changes how warehouse technology gets deployed.

"Deployment complexity has been one of the biggest friction points for warehouses adopting barcoding," said Brian Neufeld, Director of Marketing at Insight Works. "With SureMDM, we've reduced that to a single scan. A new device comes out of the box, someone scans a barcode, and it's ready to run Warehouse Insight. That's the kind of simplicity our customers have been asking for."

Beyond Deployment: Ongoing Fleet Management
Once devices are enrolled, SureMDM provides IT teams with ongoing visibility and control across the entire scanner fleet from a single web-based console — without requiring physical access to any device. Key capabilities include:
• Kiosk lockdown: Devices are locked to run only Warehouse Insight or WMS Express, preventing workers from accessing unrelated apps, browsers, or settings.
• Remote lock and wipe: Lost or decommissioned devices can be remotely locked, located, or wiped, keeping Business Central data protected.
• App and OS updates: Warehouse Insight updates and Android OS patches can be pushed to the entire fleet simultaneously, eliminating version drift across locations.
• Multi-location management: Different policies, configurations, and user assignments can be applied per site from a single console.
• Real-time monitoring: Device status, battery levels, app versions, and last-known locations are visible at a glance, enabling IT teams to identify and resolve issues before they affect warehouse operations.

Device Requirements
SureMDM's full management capabilities require devices to be enrolled from a clean state — either new out of the box or factory reset. This is an Android platform requirement. Businesses purchasing new hardware or refreshing an aging fleet will find enrollment seamless and automatic.
SureMDM supports Android-based barcode scanners and mobile computers from Honeywell, Zebra, Datalogic, and other leading manufacturers — the same devices used with Warehouse Insight and WMS Express every day.
