TAMPA BAY – June 19, 2019– TeamViewer®, a global leader in secure remote connectivity solutions and a Zebra® PartnerConnect partner, announced support for Zebra Technologies’ Secure Remote Control Service for Android™-based devices. Administrators and business managers can now access their front-line Zebra devices from within their chosen endpoint management platform, unifying remote access and support efforts while maintaining a high level of security and auditability of access.

Zebra empowers the front line in retail, healthcare, transportation and logistics, manufacturing and other industries to achieve a performance edge. TeamViewer now supports select Android-based Zebra handheld computers, tablets, wearable and vehicle mounted computers, interactive kiosks and point-of-sale (POS) devices running Zebra Mobility Extensions (Mx) 8.3 or higher.

This new integration with Zebra’s recently introduced application program interface (API) – Remote Control Event Injection service – can be leveraged within most leading Mobile Device Management (MDM), Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) and Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) platforms, including TeamViewer integration partners IBM™ MaaS360, MobileIron™, Microsoft Intune®, Sophos™, Blackberry™, AppTec360™ and Boss ™.

“We are excited to offer our industry leading remote connectivity capability to Zebra’s Android-based devices,” says Alfredo Patron, TeamViewer’s Executive Vice President of Business Development. “We support the broadest variety of endpoints possible and organizations can now access, control and support a variety of Zebra devices, minimizing downtime and improving customer satisfaction.”
