SkieWhat is the readiness figure in Skie Insights?
Readiness shows how much of a group, branch or school is set up and able to be used as intended: devices that are enrolled, reporting and carrying their rules. It is a snapshot of how prepared a fleet is on a given day, and it is computed from measurable device data, not from opinion.
Insights is the page that turns device data into a few numbers an administrator can act on. Readiness is the first one most people look at, because it answers a simple question: if the school opened its doors now, how many devices are ready?
A device counts toward readiness when it is in the state you need it to be in: managed, reporting recently and carrying the rules that belong to its group. A new device that has not finished provisioning does not count. A device that has gone silent for a long time does not count. The figure is computed from what the devices report, so it moves when the facts move.
It is shown at the level you are looking at, so a teacher sees their class, a branch head sees the branch, and the organisation admin sees the whole organisation. Because each group has a daily snapshot, you can see whether readiness is improving or slipping over time. See daily snapshots.
What readiness does not do is say whether the rules are good ones. A fleet can be fully ready and still have a policy that is too loose. It measures that devices are set up as intended, which is a different question from whether your intentions are right. Pair it with fully compliant devices and policy reach.
Practical tip: check readiness the day before term starts, or before a pilot becomes a rollout. A low figure usually points at devices still to be provisioned or at a Wi-Fi problem.
