Google Play allows to create enterprise app stores


Imagine that your company ordered the development of some specific Android app for internal use. App is ready, but how to distribute it to employees? Android - is an open system, so your admin can call each employee and install the app to each smartphone manually. But if you have a lot of users - it's embarrassing. You can buy one of these MDM (Mobile Device Management) systems and install the app automatically. This is convenient, but very expensive. You can publish the app to the public Google Play directory. But in this case it will be available to anyone, which is not always acceptable. Now there's the fourth option - Google Play Private Channels where admin can privately publish enterprise applications, and employees can easily find and install them. However, to use these Private Channels your company must have the Google Apps account.

These enterprise channels are free, but you need to pay $25 for registration in Google Play (like any other developer).

Note that the similar app dissemination service is available in Apple's App Store. A with the release of Windows Phone 8, it's also available in Microsoft's mobile platform. So, in this case, Google is playing catch-up with the competitors.
