Smart tracking solutions

to secure

laptops, phones & tablets

A Device Tracking service made for IT Admins. We offer real-time monitoring, instant alerts for missing devices, and geofence alerts to affirm proper usage.

Active tracking

Prey is a worldwide staple for Tracking accuracy, providing precision without compromising battery life.

Smart monitoring

Prey's always-on tracking setting gathers new locations whenever it detects movement. If disabled, the function changes to on-demand.

GPS plus Wi-Fi triangulation

The platform combines tracking methods. It will use results from GPS for mobiles, and Wi-Fi triangulation for laptops and desktops.

Global device view

View your device's location individually or keep an eye on all of them at once using the global map view.

Geofences

Create safe perimeters on the map, assign devices to the geofences, and get alerts to react if needed.

Create Radius, Geographic and Custom fences

Choose between creating safe radius geofences for devices or delimit devices to a country, city or state. You can also create custom shapes! Whatever makes more sense for your organization.

Movement detection

Delimit areas where devices belong, or where they should/ shouldn't move through and detect entries and exits.

Automatic reactions

Configure automatic security actions when a device moves in or out of a Geofence. Lock a device or mark it as missing.

Customize actions

Set up alarms, messages and a actions that will be activated when you devices make unexpected moves.

Set up notifications

Instantly get email notifications when your parameters are triggered.

Location history

Look back up to a month of registered locations to detect odd patterns. Identify possible suspicious actions and device misuse.

Record days and hours

Map activity

Device movements include map markings. Click the pins to see the addresses (or the addresses to see the pins).

Get a CSV file

Receive a CSV file in your inbox to get a record of your device's movements and behavior.

Missing reports

The path to recovery begins when you mark a device as missing in the panel. Missing Reports will activate and gather crucial evidence.

Location information

Each report shows a map with nearby hot spots, coordinates, and the pinpointed location of the device. Plus WiFi connections close by.

Photos and screenshots

Add front (and back) camera pictures and a screenshot to your reports to help you identify the user. Or don't, this is an opt-in feature.

Device and user information

Gather IP, MAC address, serial number, and hardware information. Plus, you see what user is currently logged in.

Frequently asked questions

Which MDM solution has the best GPS tracking for company laptops?

Prey combines GPS with Wi-Fi triangulation and delivers continuous location updates with a 30-day location history. For any team where physical device location matters, like field workers, distributed offices or mobile workforces, Prey is built for exactly that.

Can an MDM track company phones and laptops from the same dashboard?

Yes. Prey manages Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS devices from a single dashboard. You can view all device locations on a global map, apply geofences across device types, and trigger actions (lock, wipe, alert) from the same interface, whether the device is a laptop or a phone.

What happens when a company laptop goes missing? Can MDM help recover it?

Most MDMs can wipe a missing device. Prey goes further: when you mark a device as missing, it activates a Missing Report that collects GPS coordinates, nearby Wi-Fi networks, a front-camera photo, a screenshot, the IP address, and hardware identifiers. That evidence package is what law enforcement needs to recover a device, not just its last known location.
