What is Apple?s MDM Solution
What is Apple MDM?
Apple MDM is a cloud-based device management system to streamline device deployment, enrollment, security and collaboration for iOS devices such as iPads and iPhones. Apple MDM solutions are available for iPads, iPhones and macOS devices used for business or education. These devices can be corporate-owned, corporate-shared or employee-owned. With Apple MDM solution, enterprises can manage their company-owned Apple devices as well as BYO (Bring your own) devices. Using an MDM for Apple devices, company IT can enforce security policies and distribute applications and content irrespective of device location.

How to get started with Apple MDM?
To start managing Apple devices for work, IT admins need to use Apple DEP (Device Enrollment Program) within the Apple Business Manager. Devices purchased from Apple, authorized reseller or authorized carrier can be added in Apple DEP. For devices purchased from other sources, IT needs to manually supervise devices using Apple Configurator 2.
Once the devices are supervised, they can be enrolled in Scalefusion MDM.
iOS as well as macOS devices can be enrolled into Scalefusion iOS MDM using Apple Business Manager.
