All SureMDM plans include SureLock (industry-leading kiosk solution), SureFox (secure lockdown browser), and SureVideo (secure digital signage solution).

• Enrollment
  SureMDM provides a comprehensive hub for enrolling any kind of device into your network. Where applicable, the MDM software works with Android Zero-Touch Enrollment (ZTE), Apple Business Manager, and Windows Autopilot to sync to Wi-Fi, but if they are locked down, users can’t reconfigure Wi-Fi. SureMDM’s lockdown solution automatically opens network settings when necessary, even when device settings are normally blocked, making sure everyone can access the Internet at any time after deployment.

• Management
  Managing active devices requires admins to keep track of many things at once, and 42Gears’ device management solution makes that possible. With an MDM solution, you can automatically restrict device activity based on time of day and location, for example, and monitor data consumption to warn or block data-hungry devices. Plus, you can coordinate remote app updates across every device from the central console, even when devices are in the field. This keeps device software consistent between users without demanding excessive time from those users. Perhaps most importantly, remote troubleshooting allows admins to get devices working from anywhere, eliminating most travel costs and minimizing device downtime.

• Retirement
  When it comes time to phase out devices, you can use a mobile device management solution to keep track of devices and ensure they are all factory-reset. You can remotely wipe lost devices as well, to guarantee the data on those devices doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. With employee-owned devices, SureMDM makes it easy to remove the secure enterprise container from the device.

Mobile Device Management (MDM) is a system that enables IT administrators to securely manage both company-owned and employee-owned mobile devices used within their organization. By employing an MDM system, administrators can exercise control over the software, hardware, security, and other aspects of mobile devices, ensuring enhanced security, compliance, and productivity.

In the modern business world, mobile devices have almost replaced conventional desktops. Companies are also increasingly shifting their infrastructure to the cloud, allowing employees to access applications, corporate data, and other resources from anywhere and on any device. This has provided businesses with greater mobility and flexibility.

However, this new wave of mobility has brought along greater cybersecurity risks and made device management even more difficult. These challenges make it imperative for businesses to adopt device management solutions.

Even for businesses asking “what is MDM?,” it’s never too early or late to start using a mobile device management solution. Enterprise devices have different needs at different points in their life cycles. Using an MDM solution will help with every one of those points, helping businesses get the best return on investment.
