ManageXR

Big changes are happening for Quest deployments, and we know you have questions. That’s why we hosted an AMA to talk directly with our customers about the new Meta Horizon managed services (MHMS) requirement. We covered everything from why Meta made this requirement to how ManageXR is helping customers navigate the changes. We’re committed to keeping you informed on the latest updates with our MHMS integration. Want to watch the full AMA? Comment below, and we’ll DM you the recording! #VR #XR #MetaQuest #Quest

ManageXR’s Michael Lee spent last week at KySTE with Dr. Shannon Putman, meeting with Kentucky schools to learn how they use XR to improve education! We had the incredible opportunity to live demo immersive educational applications to educators, such as a VR welding kit to Career & Technical Education (CTE) administrators. XR technology bridges the gap between education and indispensable yet expensive training through immersive learning. Want to bring VR to your classroom?

While we are excited about our partnership with Meta, we also know it came with some challenges for our customers. We are actively working with Meta to find solutions. Check out CEO Luke Wilson's full message here! #XR #VR #AR #MetaQuest

Largest virtual reality (VR) education initiative to date in Utah! Incredible moments for our team at Uplift Aerospace as we have worked with Salt Lake City School District, Salt Lake Education Foundation, and Utah State Board of Education to launch this program for all the middle schools in SLCSD district! On any given day, hundreds of students are learning in VR, with groups of 75 students at a time fully engaged, immersed, and focused with their own personalized learning module. Students step into the boots of astronauts, allowing them to embark on missions that include building rockets, designing rovers, programming autonomous systems, conducting chemistry experiments, exploring space agriculture, and more. The best part? We haven't shared the most epic aspect of the program yet! Stay tuned ?? 5/5/2025... I want to thank our collaborative partners at ManageXR and Meta (Michael Lee, Luke Wilson, and Robin Deng) for helping make this large scale VR education deployment possible. Much more to come! Exciting times ?? ?

If you have a VR deployment, the LAST thing you want to deal with is WiFi issues that disrupt your end-user experience and hinder your ability to manage devices. Network connectivity is one of the most critical components of an XR deployment. While you can update your devices over the wire, over-the-air updates are extremely useful for quickly pushing configuration updates and new content, especially if your devices are in different locations. Devices may also require a network connection to use certain apps. If your network is slow or has weak connectivity, your devices can experience delays in loading content or download failures, which can interfere with your VR program. The problem is, how do you tell if these issues are the fault of your network or something else? And, if the fault is your network, how do you fix the problem? The answer starts with in-depth visibility. Both the administrator and the end user need deep visibility into their devices’ WiFi connectivity so they can quickly diagnose and troubleshoot issues with loading content and receiving updates. The ManageXR Web Console gives you visibility into your devices’ link speed, download speed, and connection strength. ??Link Speed is the upper limit of how fast your network can be but does not equate to the speed of larger data transfers your devices adhere to. ??Download Speed is the actual rate at which data was downloaded from the internet to your device, so it is the most accurate measure of your device’s internet quality. You will also see alerts on the ManageXR dashboard and device-level view if a device has a network issue due to blocked websites or an unstable network connection. In-headset users can see their WiFi connection strength, and in-headset admin settings will display persistent network issues and blocked endpoints for advanced troubleshooting. With this visibility into download speed and network connectivity, administrators and end users can diagnose their network issues and take the necessary steps to solve them, whether it’s connecting to a different WiFi network or removing blocked endpoints. For more details on how ManageXR updates and deploys content on your devices via networks, see the help article in the comments!

??VR Expert News Alert?? Meta has officially partnered with ManageXR as a third-party integration for managing XR devices at scale. With the rebranding of Quest for Business to Meta Horizon Managed Solutions, all Meta devices now come with two years of meta horizon management solutions included. (https://lnkd.in/dQFGzgTF) In my opinion ManageXR remains the premium way to handle and deploy XR devices in education, enterprise, and beyond. While Meta’s native solution provides a baseline, ManageXR takes it further with advanced capabilities like: ? SOC 2 Type 2 & ISO 27001 Certification for enterprise-grade security ? Custom XR interface & kiosk mode for tailored user experiences ? Remote app installs, updates & content management for seamless deployments ? Advanced filtering, organizing, and device monitoring Organizations managing hundreds or thousands of headsets like our partners need reliability, flexibility, and deep control, that’s exactly what VR Expert & ManageXR delivers. Official integrations like this are a major step toward a scalable and sustainable XR ecosystem. Exciting times ahead! ?? ??Meta for Work|ManageXR|VR Expert ?? #XR #VR #Meta #ManageXR #EnterpriseXR #QuestForBusiness

Are you ready to buy Meta Quests? If your organization is deploying Meta Quest devices, purchasing through an authorized reseller is the most cost-effective, efficient, and scalable way to procure and manage your hardware. Here’s why resellers are the key to a smooth VR deployment: 1) Best Pricing & Incentives: Resellers offer exclusive Meta Horizon managed solutions bundles and promotional deals. Access two years of MHMS for free when purchasing through approved resellers! 2) Streamlined Procurement & Provisioning: Get devices pre-configured with content, branding, and accessories for a ready-to-use experience. Get ManageXR provisioned to the devices so you can start managing devices the second they reach your end users. 3) Expert Support: Work with specialists who understand VR and can help scale your deployment. While platforms like Amazon Business and Best Buy may seem convenient, they lack the specialized support and provisioning services needed for enterprise and education VR rollouts.
