iOS Enrollment Types
Enroll iOS devices using Device Enrollment or User Enrollment, depending on your deployment needs.
Device Enrollment
Use device-based enrollment in environments where you own the device. SOTI MobiControl leverages iOS MDM to oversee your iOS devices comprehensively. For details on enrolling devices using the enrollment service, see Enrolling iOS Devices Using the SOTI Enrollment Service.
Important: Enrolling iOS devices using the SOTI enrollment service offers limited device supervision.
You can auto enroll your iOS devices using
Apple Automated Device Enrollment for complete supervision.
User Enrollment
Use user-based enrollment for Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) environments,
where devices are personal, and the enterprise adds its accounts, apps, or data.
Upon user enrollment, a cryptographically isolated managed volume gets created to
keep work data separate from personal data.
Upon unenrollment, the device
destroys the managed volume and its associated cryptographic keys, ensuring no
enterprise data remains on the device.
Restriction: User enrollment requires iOS 13.1+ and Managed Apple IDs.
These devices are not supervised, limiting administrators to only the
deployment of iOS Custom
Applications. Features such as the Send
SMS and Clear Passcode device
actions, the Roaming Restrictions advanced
configuration, and the Wi-Fi proxy configuration are not supported.
Important: To maintain device user
privacy, devices enrolled via user enrollment report a more limited set of
information to SOTI MobiControl than those enrolled using
device enrollment. Omitted information includes, but is not limited to,
phone number, IMEI, and device ID.
