Apple MDM
Apple MDM that lives where you work.
Purpose-built Apple device management for MSPs. Enrollment, profiles, commands, smart groups, compliance, DEP/ADE, ABM, and VPP. Not a bolt-on to a Windows MDM. Not a separate console. Built for Apple from the ground up.
Apple device management
See every enrolled Mac, iPad, and iPhone. Filter by customer, Apple model, macOS/iOS version, or enrollment status. Act on individual devices or in bulk.
Device detail pages
Grouped info panels: Hardware, Device Info, MDM Status, and Installed Apps. DEP metadata, enrollment info, and compliance state all surfaced.
Customer filtering
Filter devices by ABM tenant mapping. See only the devices that belong to a specific client.
Device hero art
Visual device mockups by device family. MacBook, iMac, iPad, iPhone rendered in the device header for quick visual identification.
Display name overrides
Inline name editor on device pages. Override the MDM-reported name with your own label. Changes push to the device via MDM Settings command.
Installed applications
Full app inventory from InstalledApplicationList. Collapsible with state persisted in localStorage across page refreshes.
