Workspace ONE Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) provides several modes to manage devices with varying levels of control for the administrator and privacy for the user. This article provides an introduction. Read it to explore the options and uses for each mode.
What are the different device management modes in Workspace ONE UEM?
Workspace ONE UEM offers four main device management modes: UEM Managed, OS Partitioned, Hub Registered, and App Level management. UEM Managed provides the most control for administrators and is typically used for corporate-owned devices. OS Partitioned separates work and personal data, allowing for some control while maintaining user privacy. Hub Registered mode allows users to access applications without full device management, making it suitable for BYOD and temporary workers. App Level management focuses on specific applications, enabling access without requiring full device management.
How does UEM Managed mode differ from Hub Registered mode?
UEM Managed mode offers extensive control for administrators, allowing for full policies, compliance checks, and device remediation. In contrast, Hub Registered mode provides limited management options, shifting control to the end user. For instance, in Hub Registered mode, administrators cannot push applications to devices, and users can access the corporate app catalog to download apps as needed. This mode is designed to enhance user privacy while still providing access to essential resources.
When should I use App Level management?
App Level management is ideal for situations where users need access to specific applications without requiring full device management. For example, contractors or temporary workers may only need email access or to use a specific app like Workspace ONE Boxer. This mode simplifies the user experience by allowing access to corporate resources without the need for extensive device management, making it a practical choice for users who work with multiple organizations.
