SimpleMDM vs Hexnode UEM

The SimpleMDM iOS app adds location tracking, administrator messaging, and optional device compliance registration to devices managed by SimpleMDM. The SimpleMDM app is configured automatically when installed from the SimpleMDM web interface. Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

The Hexnode MDM companion app helps to manage iOS devices with Hexnode's Unified Endpoint Management solution. It lets you view your device's compliance status i.e. whether your device complies with the policies assigned by your organization. Any messages sent via the Hexnode MDM console can be viewed on the app anytime (message history is viewable even in the absence of a steady network connection). You can also access any app catalogs your IT team has set up for you, right within the app. With Hexnode MDM, your IT team can remotely configure settings on the devices in your enterprise, enforce security policies, manage mobile applications, track device’s location and remotely lock or wipe devices. Single App kiosk mode launches an app as default, restricting the users to navigate out of the app while allowing the administrator to enable/disable screen orientation and touch, device buttons, VoiceOver, Zoom, assistive touch, auto-lock, invert colors, and speak selection. NOTE: Hexnode MDM companion app is not a standalone app, it requires Hexnode's Unified Endpoint Management solution for managing devices.
