At ProDVX, we follow Android advancements to ensure that our Android devices meet the demands of today and tomorrow. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the significance of the Android versions running on our devices.
This includes understanding the use of non-rooted Android versions. It also involves recognising the impact of transitioning from Legacy Device Admin to Android Enterprise. Both provide ProDVX with the opportunity to continue offering secure and reliable display solutions.
Continue reading and learn how our non-rooted Android devices will benefit your business.
Whereas our previous Android devices ran rooted Android versions (up to Android 9), our APPC-R23 Series and APPC-10SLBe run non-rooted versions (Android 11 and 12). ProDVX refrains from rooted devices due to higher security risks, instability, and performance issues. Non-rooted devices, on the contrary, address these challenges. Let’s take a look:
One of the primary reasons for opting for non-rooted Android devices is security. Rooting an Android device compromises its built-in security mechanisms, exposing it to potential malware and unauthorised access. Non-rooted devices maintain the integrity of the system, ensuring that all applications and data remain secure.
Non-rooted devices are more stable and reliable. Rooting often involves bypassing system restrictions, which can lead to instability and crashes. Non-rooted Android devices ensure stable performance, minimising downtime and maintenance issues. Always On!
Using non-rooted devices aligns with Google's policies and guidelines, ensuring compliance with the latest updates and security patches. This way, we can offer our customers a seamless experience in troubleshooting and technical support.
Android legacy device administration refers to the traditional method of managing Android devices using the Device Administration API. With the release of Android 10 and subsequent versions, Google has been encouraging organisations to transition from legacy device administration to Android Enterprise.
Android Enterprise is considered a more secure, scalable, and manageable device management solution. It is supported only on non-rooted devices and offers numerous advantages, including:
Android Enterprise offers a more robust set of management tools compared to the legacy device admin. It provides advanced security features, better app management, and improved deployment options such as Android Zero-touch.
Android Enterprise provides features such as work profiles, managed Google Play, and zero-touch enrolment. These streamline the setup and management of devices, enhancing the overall user experience.
Our APPC-10SLBe, a non-rooted device with GMS certification, takes full advantage of Android Enterprise. This device offers our customers a seamless and user-friendly experience, greater device management, efficient deployment, and enhanced security. Learn more about this Android Enterprise device:
Choosing between a rooted and non-rooted device depends on your needs, technical expertise, and willingness to accept the associated risks and responsibilities. However, the shift towards Android Enterprise means that Legacy Device Admin becomes obsolete. With rooted devices, you may face challenges in upgrading and maintaining your systems.
By transitioning to non-rooted devices and Android Enterprise device management tools, you are ensured enhanced security, stability, and compliance. These devices guarantee a smoother transition and longevity. This makes them suitable for a wide range of display solutions, in various industries, and for businesses of any size.
Our APPC-R23 Series and APPC-10SLBe stand ready to meet your demands, delivering a seamless and secure user experience. If you require any support in choosing the right device to fit your business, please feel free to get in touch. Our Android experts are here to support you!
