Move to Meraki?

[grahammm]

Hi everyone,

 

Firstly, thanks to anyone who can provide any help to my issue!

 

The background

- Large primary

- 100 iPads

- Getting another 24

- Currently managed by Apple configurator

 

So at the moment, I plug in the iPads and install apps through configurator. However I find it really cumbersome, when I want to load a backup (mainly so all the apps are organised in the same folders on everyone). We also lost the numbering of the iPads when doing this.

 

So I'm considering meraki (or any other solution) that will easily let me:

 

- Install apps on them all

- Allow me to group apps into folders on all ipads easily

- Not loose their numbers when making a change

- Preferably allow me to roll out an app via wifi, save going and collecting up 100 from around the school!

 

Cheers,

 

Graham

The issue here is that you want an app to go into a folder; I am not sure their is any offering that will do that other than to use a backup. Meraki certainly isn't the answer.

 

It will allow you to roll out apps/install them and the process won't involve needing to set the name again. But it won't put them in a folder for you.
