SureMDM efficiently handles remote installation of files on large number of devices. All you have to do is create an installation job with file details and deploy the job to multiple Android devices.

Earlier, to create an Install Job, the file to be installed was required to be uploaded to SureMDM. However, now you can install a file by specifying a download URL of the file. In other words, with this new option, you can perform an install job of a large sized file without uploading it to SureMDM .
