Overview
With Mobile Device Management (MDM) integrations, Productiv extends its capabilities to help you manage shadow IT more effectively. By connecting Productiv to your MDM platforms, you gain visibility into apps being installed on company-managed devices and the users installing them. This feature empowers IT teams to:
- Identify unauthorized applications.
- Monitor app installations for compliance and security.
- Take actionable steps to ensure SaaS compliance across the organization.
Supported MDM Platforms
As of December 2024, Productiv supports integration with the following MDM platforms:
- Kandji
- Jamf Pro
Note: Productiv’s MDM integrations are read-only, meaning we retrieve data about app installations but do not perform actions like locking or erasing user devices.
Benefits of MDM Integration
Enhanced Visibility:
- Understand which apps are installed on company devices.
- Identify the number of users installing specific applications.
Streamlined App Management:
- Access the number of users with app installations directly in the Productiv App List page.
- Dive into detailed insights for each app to assess user adoption.
Improved Security and Compliance:
- Detect unauthorized applications that might pose security risks.
- Ensure compliance with IT policies by tracking device-level app installations.
