Android management

 

How to choose the correct enrollment method for Android?

Android device management differs between Samsung, non-Samsung and Google’s Android Enterprise. Please see this article explaining Android management methods.

What is Android Enterprise?

Android Enterprise Solution, or simply Android Enterprise (previously known as Android for Work), provides additional management features and a secure company container for your Android devices. This unifies Android management by removing device manufacturer differences and offers the same management features for all Android devices.

Requirements:

• Miradore Enterprise Plan subscription or trial.
• Miradore Online Client 2.4.0 installed to the devices.
• Devices are running Android 5.0 or newer.

What is an Android “Work Managed Device”?

Also known as Device Owner, this is a corporate-liable deployment scenario where the enterprise or company owns and fully controls employee work devices. These deployments use the device owner mode of operation, in which the entire device is managed by installing Miradore Client during initial setup of a new device or after a factory reset. This provides the maximum level of management capability in Android devices. For more information, please see our article explaining how to enroll work managed devices. 

What is an Android “Work Profile”?

This is a particularly important solution for the companies that support Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) scenarios - allowing the employees to bring personally-owned devices to work, and to use those devices to access privileged company information and applications securely. The containerization of work content makes sure that business and personal content don’t mix (for example, work contacts not leaking via private instant messaging apps).

When a work profile is created on the device, the Miradore Client operates as the profile owner of the work data, and has only limited control outside of the work profile. This means that our client is no longer the device administrator of the device and can't, for example, install Samsung KNOX/SAFE configuration profiles or wipe the device. It can, however, lock the device, install Wi-Fi networks, collect device location and enforce passcode policies like it normally would. The work profile can also be removed from the device both by an administrator as well as the user. Please see our instructions for how to enable a work profile.

 

iOS & macOS management

 

How to choose the correct enrollment method for iOS?

There are various methods available for enrolling your iOS devices into Miradore. Basic iOS enrollment can be completed using the wizard in the enrollment section of Miradore. For advanced management, we recommend the use of Apple’s Device Enrollment Program (DEP), or Apple Configurator to enroll, and supervise, your devices. For more information on iOS enrollment, please see this video on iOS enrollment methods.

How to choose the correct enrollment method for macOS?

You can enroll macOS devices into Miradore in the following ways:

• Enroll devices one-by-one through email
• Mass enroll devices through email
• Ask the device user to perform a self-service enrollment at: https://login.online.miradore.com/enroll (admin needs to provide a company PIN)
• Navigate to the Infrastructure diagram in Miradore and export an MDM profile to enroll macOS devices. The profile must be opened and installed in the target devices.
• Use the Apple DEP to enroll macOS computers in Miradore automatically. In this way you don't need to physically touch or prepare the devices before users receive them. The Device Enrollment Program (DEP) is part of Apple Business Manager.

For more information, please see the article About device enrollment methods.

 

How do I create an Apple Push Certificate?

The management of Apple devices with Miradore requires the use of the Apple Push Notification service (APNs). The APNs is a service hosted by Apple Inc., and it is used to convey requests, i.e. push notifications, from Miradore to the managed devices. Please see our instructions for creating your APNs certificate.

What is Apple DEP, VPP?

Apple’s Device Enrollment Program (DEP) and Volume Purchase Program (VPP) are part of Apple Business Manager and they help schools and businesses easily deploy and configure Apple devices and applications. Once registered, these programs help admins to simplify initial setup by automating mobile device management (MDM) enrollment and supervision of devices during setup, which enables you to configure your organization’s devices without touching them. Your supervised iOS devices combined with VPP provides a simple, scalable solution to find, buy, distribute, and manage your business applications.

Does Miradore support Apple’s DEP and VPP?

Yes, we do! Please see instructions below:

What is Apple Supervised Mode?

Supervision gives schools and businesses greater control over the iOS devices they own. With supervision, your administrator can apply extra restrictions like turning off AirDrop or preventing access to the App Store. It also provides additional device configurations and features, like silently updating apps or filtering web usage.

By default, iOS devices aren’t supervised. Supervision can only be turned on when a new device is set up using Apple DEP or Apple Configurator. If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch isn’t supervised now, your administrator needs to completely erase your device to set up supervision. More information about Apple Supervised Mode.
