Mobile device management
If you manage multiple Shopify POS devices across your business, then you can use Mobile Device Management (MDM) software to manage your entire device fleet from one place. You might want to use MDM if you have devices in locations that you can't easily visit or you want to test POS updates on a few devices before rolling them out everywhere.
MDM capabilities vary by platform. Most MDM configurations let you do the following tasks remotely:
- Install apps on POS devices
- Configure Wi-Fi networks automatically
- Manage app updates
- Manage and monitor security settings
Review these guides to help you decide whether an MDM solution is right for your stores. All MDM solutions include different features for device management, so if you have questions about a specific MDM solution, then you can contact the MDM vendor.
