Looking for an AirDroid Business alternative?
AirDroid Business Is Android-Only. Your Fleet Isn't.
AirDroid Business handles basic Android remote access, but it can't support iOS, doesn't offer SSO or SCIM, and has no ITSM integration. DeviceView covers every platform with enterprise security on every plan.
What is the best AirDroid Business alternative for cross-platform IT?
DeviceView is built for IT teams whose fleets include more than just Android. It covers Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux from one console, with SSO, SCIM, RBAC, Privacy Mode, remote shell, and ITSM integrations on every plan (session recording is a usage-based add-on). AirDroid Business is Android-only, has no SSO or SCIM, and lacks the session-security controls regulated industries require.

What AirDroid Business gets right
AirDroid Business is a solid tool for Android kiosk management and basic remote access. It offers remote view, file transfer, app management, and device grouping at a competitive price point.
Where it falls short for enterprise IT
No iOS support
AirDroid Business is Android-only. If your fleet includes iPhones or iPads, you need a second tool.
No SSO or SCIM
No SAML/OIDC single sign-on and no automated user provisioning. Every technician account is managed manually.
No Privacy Mode
No way to blank the device screen during sensitive support sessions. A requirement for HIPAA and financial services.
Basic access control
No RBAC with conditional access, no adaptive MFA, no session policies. Account security stays at the password level.
No remote shell
No shell access, no scripting, no compliance checks. Troubleshooting stays at the GUI level.
No ITSM integration
No native integration with ServiceNow, Zendesk, or Jira. Sessions can't be launched from tickets or logged back automatically.
