Features.

So what, exactly, can be managed, secured and controlled using Torusoft Backstage? The simple answer is A LOT.

Torusoft Backstage unlocks an extensive set of security and management features normally hidden on your iPhone or iPad. Backstage helps you determine what your users can do with their iDevices and sometimes more importantly, what they can't do.

The configuration for what settings you choose to manage is pushed securely over the air to your iDevices. There's no syncing, no logging in and no help desk required in order to update the configuration of any iDevice within your organization.

Backstage is robust and makes it easy to meet your organization's security requirements and device usage policies. There's no better way to deploy iDevices and take control of your mobile workforce.
