Windows Enrollment

To effectively manage Windows devices, the first step is enrolling them into your Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution. Once enrolled, devices can be provisioned with enterprise applications, security policies, configurations, and corporate content. Throughout the device lifecycle, administrators can use the SureMDM to monitor device health, enforce compliance policies, and initiate remediation actions whenever a device becomes non-compliant. When devices reach their end of life (EOL), they can be securely retired and decommissioned from the management environment.

Supported Enrollment Methods

Choose the enrollment method that best aligns with your organization's deployment model and device ownership strategy.

  • SureMDM Agent Enrollment : A standard agent-based enrollment method that provides comprehensive device management capabilities, making it suitable for organizations requiring advanced management and control.

  • Windows CLI Based Enrollment : A standard agent-based enrollment method that provides comprehensive device management capabilities, making it suitable for organizations requiring advanced management and control.

  • Windows EMM : An agentless enrollment approach that leverages the native Windows Mobile Device Management (MDM) built-in OMA-DM Client to manage devices without installing an additional management agent.

  • Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) Registered Enrollment : Designed primarily for personally owned (BYOD) devices, this method allows users to register their devices by adding their work or school account while maintaining separation between personal and organizational data.

  • Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) Join Enrollment : Recommended for corporate-owned devices, this enrollment method joins devices directly to Microsoft Entra ID, providing centralized identity management, seamless single sign-on (SSO), and full organizational access.

  • Windows Enrollment with app wrapping : Automates the enrollment process to eliminate the need for end-user intervention. This zero-touch approach is optimized for device migration, userless devices, and large-scale deployments.

  • Enroll Windows Devices in Bulk Using Provisioning Package : Uses Windows Configuration Designer provisioning packages (.ppkg) to quickly enroll and configure multiple devices with minimal or no user interaction, making it ideal for large-scale deployments.

  • Windows Autopilot Enrollment : Provides a zero-touch, out-of-box experience (OOBE) for deploying corporate Windows devices. Devices are automatically configured with organizational settings, applications, and security policies during their initial setup, reducing IT effort and improving the end-user onboarding experience.
