When Scalefusion is the better choice

Mixed fleets across several operating systems. Kiosk-heavy deployments that need multi-app mode, a managed browser, or digital signage. An on-premises requirement.

When DockMDM fits better

Rugged Android fleets, especially under the 10-device floor. Zebra MX configuration written for you from plain language instead of OEMConfig forms. An AI that runs real jobs over MCP rather than generating scripts. One focused, fast console.

Switching questions, answered.

Scalefusion publishes tiers from about $2 to $6 per device per month billed annually, with a 10-device minimum on paid plans and a 14-day trial. DockMDM has no minimum: free for up to 3 devices with no time limit, then one plan at $5 per device per month, or $50 per year.
Scalefusion's AirThink AI is a GPT-powered assistant in the dashboard, with script generation as its documented capability. DockMDM is AI-native: a built-in MCP server lets Claude, Codex, or any AI agent query devices, run real jobs, and build validated Zebra MX configurations.
Both have kiosk and remote control. DockMDM includes single-app kiosk and live remote view and control in every plan. Scalefusion goes deeper on kiosk with multi-app mode, a kiosk browser, and digital signage.
