Device Enrollment

How to choose the correct enrollment method for my devices?

There are several different ways to enroll devices into Miradore, and depending on your management requirements, you may need to choose carefully. Please see the following videos explaining iOS and Android enrollment/management methods.

If you're looking to manage a large number of iOS devices, see our video about how to automate device enrollment with Apple Business Manager.

For more information about the Android device enrollment methods, see Android device management.

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 Premium Plan subscription or trial.
  • Miradore Client installed on the devices.
  • Devices are running Android 6.0 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 the 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 the 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.
