IOS MDM licence with ESMC

[ShaneDT 13]

Not sure if this should be in this section or the ERA/ESMC section.

What licence is required for IOS MDM?

There is a separate licence for Android devices but from what I can see there is no separate licence for IOS devices? So the only option is to purchase additional Endpoint Protection Advanced licences which fairly expensive just for MDM on mobiles and tablets?

Thanks.

Hello,

Licenses for ESET Endpoint Security for Android should work with iOS devices. MDM does something we call on-behalf-of licensing in this case, where it keeps licenses on MDM instead on devices itself as we don't provide application for iOS.

Please note that iOS does not support offline licenses (Android now does)

Thanks Mirek.

I see there is a lot of comment on here with MDM for IOS so is this how everyone licences this? Or are there other options also?

[Mirek S. 18]

Currently, there are no other options (other than per-device activation).

In the future, we might consider volume licensing which in my opinion would be more appropriate for iOS devices.
