Managing Devices - MDM for Groups | Admin Guide - Zoho One

Manage groups with MDM

By enabling MDM for a group, you can collectively manage the devices of the users present in that group. When you associate profiles or distribute apps to a group, they will be associated/distributed to all the devices present in that group. You can also use this to automate applying or removing profiles and apps to devices whenever a new user is added to the group or removed from it.

Consider the following example:
In your organization Zylker, you have a group called Zylker-Finance, which contains the members of the finance team in your organization. You have provided company-owned devices to these members.

You want to distribute a finance mobile app to these users' devices together and prevent users from uninstalling this app. You also want this to be automated whenever a new user is added to the group.

You can do this by enabling MDM for this group, associating a profile (with restrictions for uninstalling apps), and distributing the required app to it. The steps to manage groups with MDM vary between the three User Interface versions supported in Zoho One. Select the UI version you use from the tabs below and proceed with the steps that follow:
