iPad SMB/Enterprise Management
-
I have a Mac Server and use the profile manager from Apple. It works well for me.

sorry, this is the new me. Yes. MaxFocus does MDM. if you want i can show you what it offers. BYOD or Company owned?
I would love to take you up on your offer. Meraki's quote was extremely high. There is no way my executive director will bite. Even with a sale they are currently running.

We use a combination of Apple Configurator with Meraki MDM.
We have complete control over the devices once they are locked down. There are flaws, but that is because of the way IOS manages profiles not delivered from Apple Configurator. (the Meraki MDM profile)
It provides layers of security, with the most basic layer allowing us to track the device with Apple Find my iDevice.

I'd love to use it but it's expensive. Cost is always an issue here.

Apple Configurator is free. As well is Meraki MDM (you don't need their devices)
You just need an apple system and a few extra cords.

Meraki MDM has their AP's which you can demo for 1 or 2 years. Which is the subscription based solution they have.
But Meraki MDM is 100% free to use for as many devices as you have.
We have over 500 devices on our meraki account. Laptops, iPads, Surface's etc.

I am using Meraki MDM currently and can only put 100 devices on it. That is the maximum they allow without paying per device. They used to do that but no longer

For Meraki? maybe we were grand fathered into some plan cause we have way more than 100 devices.

I bet you were. They totally did that at a time. I was quoted and verified with Meraki directly--100 devices free and when you go to a paid model you have to pay for those hundred devices as well.
