MDM (Mobile Device Management) software suggests methods to quickly deploy, integrate, and monitor a network of certain smartphones or tablets. Ideally, MDM has to provide a way to oversee mobile devices as easily as desktop computers. There are MDM systems for all mobile operating systems, including cross-platform ones, but this guide focuses on Android as the only operating system that offers fully-fledged customization in terms of MDM.

There are three ways MDM can be implemented with Android management API:

1. Work profile. A dedicated account on a device that stores and transfers corporate data without affecting personal data. MDM policies are also applied to the profile data only.
2. Managed device, a smartphone or tablet enrolled with MDM.
3. Dedicated device, a separate device used with restricted functionality. For example, this can be a tablet used as a bulletin board.

The system allows enrolling target devices over-the-air, which means no cables are required. You can use a wireless connection to enroll and manage mobile devices on Android.

The registration procedure to Google’s MDM platform imposes several requirements:

– Android device version 6.0 or higher
– Access to Google Cloud Platform
– Enabled Android management API in Google Cloud Platform

After all the requirements are completed, there are two ways to enroll your devices: a quickstart procedure suggested by Google and a more advanced way to complete setup is meant for creating your own MDM solution based on Google’s API.
