Prey is a software and online platform for mobile device tracking, management, and data protection available for laptops, tablets, and mobiles. It offers a range of services for both personal and corporate use. The software and service are developed by the Chilean company Prey Inc., the successor of the funding company Fork Ltd.

The Prey service is the property of Prey Inc., a small software company that operates in Chile and San Francisco. To this day, Prey has over 7.000.000 users and protects more than 8.800.000 devices in over 230 countries around the world. The service can be accessed for free, with the basic protection plan, or in its paid alternative that adds extensive features. The latter offers data protection tools for personal users, and a device fleet management suite for enterprises, schools, and non-profit organizations.

– Advanced Tracking
Follow a fleet’s movements globally, track their locations in time, and delimit Control Zones to detect and react to unwanted area exits or entries.

– Reactive Security:
Create automatic triggers for when theft or movement is detected, and use anti-theft tools to block and track your organization’s assets. Recover key files, wipe or lock-down the rest, and gather evidence.

– Simplified Management:
Assign devices to employees, easily group them by usage, hardware, or area, and keep track of any hardware changes or odd behaviors like devices that have been offline for a while.

– Evidence-based Recoveries:
When a device is missing, Prey will gather evidence that’s crucial for recovery, and deliver it to you in periodic reports that can aid the police’s work.

Advanced user of Prey
★★★★★
Been with Prey since they were a tiny startup, happy to see them evolve into a superb product.

What do you like best?

Installation is quick and easy, agent does not hog resources or interfere with the device. Very discreet. Alerts and warnings have saved us from losing a few laptops. Great value for money.

What do you dislike?

Had a couple of incidents where the geo location was off or ineffective. I would like it if adding and removing licenses was an easier process and could be done directly from the portal.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Protect your mobile devices with Prey, it will help you control your inventory and is a fantastic loss prevention solution. Works silently in the background, users don't even know it is there until they need to.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Asset management, loss prevention, inventory control, onboarding and offboarding. It is a great complement to our IT management suite. Very affordable compared to other similar solutions.
