laptop tracking / theft recovery
-
I've only used Meraki MDM because it's free up to 100 devices. We had a bunch of iPads I needed to be able to remote wipe, lock and control app downloads for. Haven't really needed to control a lot of laptops yet. We just had the person sign something that says they are responsible for it and never ran into an issue.

Meraki is what we use as well.
It works well most of the time, but the software at times flakes out and needs to be reinstalled.

Any of the MDM solutions I found at the time were very expensive. Good luck

Unfamiliar with this but it's very reasonably priced.

@wirestyle22 Reading there recovery stories is a old past time of mine

Meraki MDM here as well. We already used Meraki cloud for AP control and it looked like MDM came with it. So I turned it on and started to play with it. Showed it to the boss and now it is standard installation.

It looks like someone will be sitting through a Meraki demo to see if it's free for the first 100. That client only has 20 company owned mobile devices, so that would work.

@Mike-Davis Meraki MDM is 100% free to use for up to 100 devices.
No demo needed at all.
Sign up for an account, which should create your network, and then add devices using the, enrollment code or the QR bar code.
You're off the the races. Devices generally show up on the network in 10 minutes or so.

That's only for the free AP

Yup, which you don't want / need the AP. You just need the MDM, not the hardware.
