About SimpleMDM

SimpleMDM is a mobile device manager for organizations that need to manage a large number of corporate or employee owned Apple devices including iPhones, iPads, and computers running macOS. The platform enables users to deploy enterprise and volume purchase apps, initialize devices in bulk, and get greater control with iOS supervision features.

Organizations are able to secure company assets and data by hiding apps, blocking features and disabling functionality, to requiring passcodes, disabling dangerous iOS features, and more. SimpleMDM enables users to track real time and historic device location, enable lost mode on supervised devices, and view device locations on a map. Users can also get asset details such as battery life, storage capacity, serial numbers, iOS versions, and more.

Apple’s device enrollment program (VPP) and volume purchase program (DEP) allow users to purchase Apple devices that are preconfigured for SimpleMDM and supervision. Organizations are able to buy and install enterprise, custom B2B, and App Store apps on all devices at the corporate level, with or without using Apple IDs. The platform handles Apple enterprise app distribution with support for app upgrades, certificates, and provisioning profile management to prevent data from getting lost between upgrades.

DEP allows new company-owned devices to enroll automatically, and BYOD (bring your own device) setups can be enrolled via the Apple configurator, web link, email, SMS or QR code. SimpleMDM supports a variety of configuration profiles including AirPlay Destinations, AirPrint Printers, calendars, contacts, email, passcodes, restrictions, single app lock, VPN, global HTTP proxies, web content filters, Wi-Fi networks, and more.

Key benefits of SimpleMDM

  • SimpleMDM provides full support for the Apple Device Enrollment Program (DEP) and the Apple Volume Purchase Program (VPP) with device-level assignment.

  • The solution's iOS supervised mode allows additional configuration and restriction options such as arranging and hiding apps, activation locks, and force app installs and updates.

  • The platform alerts users of issues concerning Apple IDs, device permissions, licensing and enterprise certificates, and can recover from them automatically.

  • SimpleMDM provides a powerful API (RESTful JSON), providing organizations with access to their account and devices, and integration with existing infrastructures.

  • Apple supervision allows for even greater control over devices through SimpleMDM than is generally allowed by iOS.

    Cons

    Nothing really to complain about the software. Customer support has been responsive to all our queries, which are usually related to third parties changing device's features.

    Pros

    I like being able to set up devices remotely since we have employees across multiple states.

    Cons

    We can't use the 'FindMy' app with SimpleMDM on the device and the tracking feature does not work and update when I try to refresh location.

    I cannot stress enough how much SimpleMDM has helped us. With our continued growth, roll out of new software and growing needs, SimpleMDM meets and goes beyond our needs and expectations,

    Pros

    SimpleMDM has changed our day to day work flow for administration of Mac users. Coming from manually tracking and managing software, devices and all other data that comes along with that, SimpleMDM completely blew my mind. The fact that almost anything can be automated - from device enrollment to software installs, this has saved myself and team countless hours.

    Cons

    There hasn't been much I feel that the software is missing. It is very straight forward and support is great when we have questions. Perhaps a built in command to reset users passwords?
