Categories has been created with the main goal to collect all devices that belongs to some logics, but it is a weak solution. Probably is better to change it with groups, where you can collect different devices (iike location does), and maybe make on then additional queries as we can do on devices list.

This should cover the category functionalities and add new ones.

Probably is better to call Groups as Collections. Groups are more related to people.

The capability to group resources is pretty useful also for suppliers. They could make a product and then check all devices in it. I don't know if Product could match with Group. Think about.

For sure Groups. Way more dynamic.
