FAQs

What is mobile device management software?

Mobile device management (MDM) software is a solution that allows IT administrators and providers to securely manage and monitor mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets and laptops, across an organisation. MDM software helps companies enforce security policies, track device usage, deploy apps and software updates and remotely lock or wipe devices if they are lost or stolen. It ensures that corporate data is protected and that devices are compliant with company regulations.

What is MDM used for?

MDM is used to securely manage and control mobile devices within an organisation. Mobile device management solutions are primarily used for:

  • Enforcing security policies like encryption, passcode requirements and app restrictions.
  • Managing device configurations, software updates and settings with easy remote control.
  • Tracking and monitoring devices for lost or stolen devices and protecting company data.
  • Streamlining device provisioning and deprovisioning as part of the employee lifecycle (onboarding and offboarding).
  • Ensuring compliance with company policies and regulatory standards related to mobile devices and data security.

How do I choose the right MDM solution?

Choosing the right MDM solution depends on a variety of factors unique to your organisation’s needs:

  • Device compatibility: Make sure the MDm solution supports all the device types your organization uses, such as iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS devices.
  • Security features: Look for robust security features such as data encryption, remote wipe, password enforcement, and the ability to track and locate devices in case of loss or theft.
  • Scalability: Choose an MDM solution that can scale with your business as it grows. Make sure it can handle the number of devices your organisation currently has and can easily expand as you onboard new devices and employees.
  • Integration with existing systems: Select an MDM solution that integrates smoothly with your current IT infrastructure, such as HR, software management, or other endpoint management tools. Rippling, for example, integrates MDM alongside HR and IT management, streamlining onboarding, offboarding, and device management in one place.
  • Ease of use: Consider how user-friendly the solution is for both administrators and end users. A solution with an intuitive user experience and centralized management console will make it easier for your IT team to deploy, monitor, and manage devices.
  • Cost: Determine your budget for MDM software and evaluate the pricing model. Some MDM solutions charge based on the number of devices or users, while others offer tiered pricing based on features. Ensure that the pricing aligns with the features you require.

How does MDM software enhance security for corporate mobile devices?

MDM software enhances security for corporate mobile devices by offering a range of features that protect sensitive data, ensure compliance and prevent unauthorised access, like:

  • Device encryption: MDM software can enforce encryption on devices, ensuring that all data stored on mobile devices is securely encrypted, even if the device is lost or stolen.
  • Access control: MDM gives organisations application management control to determine which apps and services can be accessed on mobile devices.
  • Security policy enforcement: MDM helps enforce a variety of security policies, such as requiring complex passwords, setting up two-factor authentication or ensuring that devices have the latest security patches installed.
  • App management and monitoring: With MDM, IT teams can deploy, update and remove applications on mobile devices. They can also monitor app usage to ensure that only approved apps are used, and malicious apps can be detected and blocked.
  • Geofencing and location tracking: MDM allows companies to track the location of mobile devices and set up geofencing, so if a device moves outside of authorised areas, it can be automatically locked or wiped.
  • Compliance and reporting: MDM software offers detailed reporting and auditing features, ensuring that devices are in compliance with corporate security policies and regulatory requirements.

By centralising management, enforcing security policies and providing real-time monitoring and remote capabilities, MDM ensures that mobile devices stay secure, even in a highly distributed and mobile workforce.

What is bring your own device (BYOD) support?

Bring your own device (BYOD) support refers to the practice of allowing employees to use their personal devices – such as smartphones, tablets and laptops – for work-related tasks. BYOD enables employees to access corporate resources, such as email, apps and files, on their own devices rather than relying on company-issued hardware. This approach offers several benefits, such as increased flexibility, cost savings and improved productivity, as employees can work from anywhere and use the devices that they're most comfortable with.
