Ready-to-use profiles

Select premade configuration profiles from the admin interface, and easily apply them to an individual device or device group. Whether you’re securing Wi-Fi connections or restricting the use of certain applications; whatever you need — there's a profile for it.

Custom configuration profiles

Customize device settings, policies, and restrictions with Custom Configuration Profiles. Easily upload and edit profiles directly in the interface using the built-in text editor, and take advantage of Custom Attribute support to add variables at the group or device level.
