What devices are you using? We support a lot of enterprise devices, Zebra being one of the OEM providers, where we can see the package downloading when within a remote control session. Navigating to the location /data/data/net.soti.mobicontrol.motorola/app_tmp, you should be able to see the package within there whilst downloading - the number of bytes shown giving you an indication of a rough "percentage" in comparison to the total number of bytes of the pcg file.

Hello Matt,

At this time it is not possible to view the percentage of the completion for a transfer for a package delivery.  But if the logging for the DS is set to verbose it is possible to get an idea of the progress. Below is are snipits of the DS logs in for a package deployment.

Being able to see the progress (in %) for the deployment of an app for a device & a device group would be very useful.
Any plans for implementing such thing in a future SOTI version?

Hi Steven, 

Regardless of whether this is on the road map or not, if it is a feature that you are interested in that does not currently exist in the latest version of the software, we encourage our customers to submit a case here.  From there you can request a feature request with your Technician, until enhancements provided you the ability to submit feature requests yourself directly. (foreshadowing?)

On a second note there is a section to the right side of every profile that is created that shows  information about the profile being deployed.  Including the "Execution Status",  this displays a graph of the number of devices that have completed installation on your devices and how many are outstanding.

Hope this helps,
