Zebra Nucleus for Zebra terminals, barcode readers and printers

Zebra Nucleus software for Zebra fleet management

Zebra Nucleus is a Unified Endpoint Management cloud platform that unifies the management of Zebra devices into a single portal: Android mobile terminals, barcode readers, and Zebra printers.

The platform provides real-time visibility into devices, health, performance, software and firmware versions, licenses and deployment groups. Administrators can configure, organize, update and secure Zebra fleets from a common interface, without having to manage separate applications such as 123Scan, DNA Cloud, Printer Profile Manager Enterprise or Printer Setup Utility.
