For organizations that want to expand their IT infrastructure outside of Android and Apple devices, HarmonyOS presents a strong alternative. Admins can get the best out of these devices when used for work by bringing them under the umbrella of management with a comprehensive mobile device management tool like Mobile Device Manager Plus.
Without a robust device management tool in place, devices used for work remain unmanaged and can present security threats to the organization. Further, admins will have a hard time configuring the necessary settings, apps, and resources onto these devices, which can hamper employee productivity.
With a comprehensive MDM tool like Mobile Device Manager Plus, admins can onboard these devices into management, configure security policies, automate device management actions, and carry remote commands to keep devices work-ready.
Mobile Device Manager Plus is one of the few MDM tools that facilitates the management of HarmonyOS devices and enables you to:
Leverage Android Debug Bridge and the help of a Windows or Mac machine to bring devices under management.
Though Google's Firebase Cloud Messaging services cannot be leveraged to manage HarmonyOS devices, with Mobile Device Manager Plus you can still manage them through pre-configured periodic communication between devices and the MDM server.
Centrally manage device configurations like Wi-Fi, VPN, email, certificates, and more.
Lock devices to a single app or a specific set of apps, manage home screens, and implement restrictions, thereby allowing devices to function as single-purpose, dedicated devices that provide a secure and streamlined user experience. Also configure Shared Device mode that enables the same device to be used by different employees at different times, with each of them having access to their own personalized workspace.
For personally-owned devices under the BYOD policy, containerize and exclusively manage the corporate workspace to keep corporate data secure while ensuring device user privacy.
Categorize devices into groups based on departments or OUs. Then deploy group-based policies in bulk to devices to ensure each team has access to the right set of resources.
Deploy enterprise-developed apps over the air to corporate-owned devices and have them silently installed.
Manage multiple versions of the same enterprise app to aid in testing out beta versions before distribution to the production environment, and distribute different versions of the same app to different teams based on their need.
Facilitate self-service by adding apps to an app catalogue within the device, allowing users to install the apps they wish to use without resorting to third-party sources. Distribute content to the self-service portal to provide secure access to work files.
Keep distributed content updated on devices by simply updating it on the content repository within the MDM console.
Mandate device passcodes and dictate passcode type, complexity, and age to ensure devices containing corporate data have secure and compliant passcodes set.
Restrict device functionalities like camera, microphone, factory reset, etc., and restrict users from modifying settings configured by Mobile Device Manager Plus, thereby preventing the misuse of business-critical devices.
Add an additional layer of security to device data by enforcing encryption measures and further deter the unauthorized access of corporate data.
Block the access of malicious apps and web domains to keep devices protected from app- and web-based security threats.
Setup geofences that automate security actions such as alerts and data wipes to be performed if the device leaves or enters a specific geographical boundary.
Allow only managed devices to access corporate resources, including apps and the Exchange server, to effectively implement a conditional access policy.
Automatically detect and remove devices that are rooted to eliminate the threats these devices can pose to the corporate network.
Remotely view and control device screens right from the MDM console to resolve technical issues. To simplify issue resolution, simultaneously carry out remote commands and chat with the device user during the troubleshooting session.
Track the location of essential devices and maintain a history of locations traversed by them to stay updated on their whereabouts always.
Execute commands to remotely lock, set off an alarm, reset the password, track the location, and initiate Lost Mode on devices that are reported as misplaced to aid in their recovery. For devices that can't be recovered, initiate a data wipe or execute a factory reset command to prevent device data from falling into the wrong hands.
Gain a bird's-eye view of all devices from a single window and drill down to view granular details about a single device.
Automate sending alerts to the admin for critical device events like device reboot, wrong password entry, SIM card change, and more. Configure announcements and important news to be sent to devices in the form of notifications to keep device users informed.
Gain insights on your managed fleet by automating report generation through a set of predefined reports or by creating custom reports.
