So the company I work for made me buy my own upgrade phone, but they're footing the monthly bill (in the past they've bought the phones -- previously always BB -- as well). Got my new GS3 this morning, & it's charged and activated. This afternoon I got an email from IT saying "please install MaaS360". I'm browsing the net to see what that does, but could use some advice from someone who knows more. For one thing, I wouldn't have ordered the phone if I couldn't root it, and it looks like MaaS360 can prevent me from doing that -- and probably wont work with a custom ROM once Cy..Mod is available for the phone. For another, I'm not too keen on the idea of IT being able to track web usage on non-work Wifi networks after work hrs (home, coffee shops, etc), see the personal files on the SD card, kill **MY** phone if a misguided administrator decides to fire me, etc.
Should I be/not be ticked off? Root the phone before installing the program, then play dumb? Thoughts?
