Using an MDM

An MDM is a system that lets an organization manage and control mobile devices, such as tablets and phones, from one central place.

For example, an organization can use an MDM to:

• Set up devices for employees or shared use
• Install or remove apps
• Control device settings
• Apply security requirements
• Restrict access to certain features
• Configure applications
• Remotely lock or wipe a device if needed

Think of an MDM as a remote control center for an organization's mobile devices. It allows an administrator to set rules and manage devices without having to configure each device individually. For example, a new version of FormsPro is released. An MDM allows an IT administrator can update all devices from a central location.
