Dell OpenManage Mobile (OMM) is an app that enables IT Administrators to securely provision, monitor, and troubleshoot Dell PowerEdge servers or MX7000 chassis directly from a mobile device. OMM can access and manage PowerEdge servers or MX7000 modular chassis either remotely (i.e. over management network) or from inside the data center (i.e. when an IT Administrator is physically present in front of server or a chassis). Following are the ways you can access a server or an MX7000 chassis: • Remote into a server (iDRAC7, iDRAC8 or iDRAC9) • Remote into an MX7000 chassis and sleds • Remote into a console (OpenManage Enterprise) • At-the-server access to a PowerEdge server with iDRAC9 • At-the-chassis access to an MX7000 chassis and sleds When connected through a console (OpenManage Enterprise), OMM can access Dell servers, chassis, storage, networking, and any other supported third-party appliances being managed through this console. For specific feature support on OpenManage Mobile, please visit Dell Tech Center at www.DellTechCenter.com/OMM SUPPORT FOR AT-THE-SERVER MANAGEMENT • At-the-server access is available on PowerEdge 14th Generation and above rack and towers which support Quick Sync 2. For the latest list of supported hardware models, please contact a Dell Sales representative. • Quick Sync 2 module utilizes Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Wi-Fi to establish a secure connection between server and mobile device running OMM. SUPPORT FOR AT-THE-CHASSIS MANAGEMENT • Quick Sync 2 module for at-the-chassis access is available on MX7000 modular chassis FEATURES Supported features depend on the type of access (console or iDRAC) and the specific generation of server being accessed.

Verdict

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
OpenManage Mobile holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 26 and 13 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of OpenManage Mobile's written reviews are positive against 25% of EcoStruxure IT's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
OpenManage Mobile ships an update every 6 months, EcoStruxure IT every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
