SOTI MobiControl Version 15 Approaches End of Life
If your business uses SOTI MobiControl as a mobile device management (MDM) and remote control solution for your enterprise devices, please be aware of many upcoming changes to SOTI’s licensing program and version support. As an overview, SOTI continues to advance its software and product offering, and has now announced an end-of-life date for MobiControl version 15 on September 1, 2025. If you are running version 15, you will want to work with CSSI for assistance and support in moving your enrolled devices to the latest version of MobiControl. We recommend getting ahead of the upcoming changes, as it often takes some time to upgrade and test to ensure minimal disruption to your end users.
