+ How to Enroll User Devices:
There are several ways to enroll user devices with Certero for Mobile:

Customized Device Configuration and Administration
Our mobile device management software facilitates easy application of configurations. Each configuration includes a number of definitions regarding the options and features that are managed through Certero for Mobile’s device management capabilities.
test
+ Definitions and Building Blocks:
The following definitions or building blocks are created within Certero for Mobile:
- Wi-Fi
- VPN
- Secure password policies
- Device restrictions
- Compliance settings
- Kiosk Mode
- AirPrint printers
- Company apps
- Apps from public app stores
- Blacklisting apps from your devices
- Android Update Policies
- Email Configuration
- Geofencing sites and Alerts
Each of these definitions is created as re-usable building blocks, streamlining the process of creating multiple configurations as the same building blocks can be used multiple times. The other benefit of this approach is that any changes to the building blocks only need to be made in a single location; for example, if the WiFi passwords change for a specific location, the administrator only needs to edit the definition in a single place and it will automatically update all of the associated configurations.
Configurations are applied to users and or devices based on a set of criteria that is defined within Certero for Mobile, this enables the automatic assignment of configurations to users and or devices; streamlining the ongoing management of mobile devices.

Apple VPP
If you need to distribute paid apps on iOS you can use the Apple Volume Purchasing Program (VPP). By simply logging in to the VPP portal and downloading the token for your account and adding it into our mobile device management software, organizations are able to gain full visibility of their VPP licenses and their utilization.
test
+ Learn More about Apple VPP:
Multiple VPP accounts are supported, so simply assign users to the account you require and Certero for Mobile will take care of the rest. If you have used VPP previously, our mobile device management software simplifies the experience of inviting and registering users.
If a user has access to an app that requires a VPP license, the Certero for Mobile app will display a banner asking them to register with VPP; once they have registered, they will be able to download the apps they need.
All VPP licenses are automatically reclaimed from users; when they are either removed from the system (for example when they leave the company) or when their last device is un-enrolled. This allows for the reassignment of licenses to other users.
Enterprise BYOD
Our mobile device management software has been designed to support both personal devices and corporately owned devices to ensure you can easily incorporate a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policy into your overall IT infrastructure. The configurations applied to devices can be defined based on ownership, so that organizations can easily maintain separate policies for each type of device.
Corporate and Public App Stores
Application management within our mobile device management software provides organizations with a simple and easy to use mechanism to publish applications to their users.
test
+ Learn More about App Stores:
The publishing of applications is controlled on a per user basis; administrators are able to define policies within our mobile device management software to define exactly which applications are made available to end users. Applications can also be pre-configured with company specific settings to simplify the installation process for users.
