Hexnode MDM

The drive towards ever greater control over hardware connected and connecting to a corporate network requires several trade-offs for privacy, self-determination, and purpose. Even as BYOD and its variants become more prevalent thanks to slashed IT procurement budgets, users are expected to accept potentially strict controls over how they use their own devices in a corporate environment. And of course, there are the devices the organization does own. Interested in Hexnode? Check out the website here All can be controlled using Mobile Device Management (MDM ) software. Installed on individual devices and administered from a central server (sometimes in the cloud), MDM (an umbrella term for several similar, linked technologies) simplifies device security, oversees the location, and rolls out updates.

Kandji MDM

Image
Mobile Device Management ( MDM ) software allows the remote administration of portable technology, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. It ensures security privileges, software and operating system patching, can find and erase lost or stolen devices, and more. Most MDM solutions allow the administration of multiple mobile platforms. Increasingly, MDM is being swallowed up by UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) and becoming just a single aspect of digital hardware management. Understandably, the aim is to ensure that all types of devices, irrespective of manufacture and operating system, can be managed remotely. Kandji is a little different. Rather than provide an MDM that is closer to a UEM, it offers a focused experience, allowing only the management and administration of Apple devices. This overview of Kandji's features will help you decide if this is the MDM solution for your organization. Kandji is a feature-packed MDM solution for Apple devices (Image credit...

But would you ditch a more universal MDM in favour of a platform that only supports half (or less) of your workforce's mobile devices? Interested in Jamf?
