  1. create a viewable command queue

    I need to be able to see a pending command queue, especially for offline devices. For example, let's say I have a lost/stolen iPad. The device was online yesterday, so I enable lost mode on that device. Since it's not currently online, that command is queued in the background until it's online again, but there is no indication whatsoever that the command is queued up.

  2. Allow sorting/filtering on the Device Details > Apps page

    It would be very helpful to be able to sort the Apps list on Device details by discovered date. Additionally, it would be helpful to have a filter field to isolate a batch of apps that match the criteria.

  3. Add tooltip on serialnumber link in logs for device name

    A tooltip showing the device name would be helpful when reviewing logs to determine the device without having to click forward

  5. Asset management/Security (email addition)

    When enrolling a user into the platform, it would be nice to capture the email account that they used to gain the enrollment link and add to the device information. This allows the Admin an easier time finding the device when a user is added or removed. Another big improvement would be for security, If a device is lost or stolen sometimes having to find "John smith'"s device can be hard and time-consuming when he named it "bobby's world mac" or "this is my mac". By simply having another way to identify the device i.e [email protected] would make it much…

  7. Filter on a field

    For example, show me only devices whose firmware password isn't set.

    Also, it would be handy to be able to generate a report for this rather than just a search filter.

  8. Add column sorting to apps

    When looking at all devices with an installed app, it would be nice to be able to sort by the columns instead of only sorting by device name. This would let me sort to see what devices have old versions of an app installed instead of having to copy and paste into an excel file.

  9. Show Device Lock status via webUI and API

    So - similar to JP's suggestion... https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/36523045-show-a-list-of-locked-devices

    BUT - at the moment a device can have one of three statuses returned via the API

    *enrolled
    *enrolling
    *unenrolled

    Could you also add

    *Lock Command sent
    *Lock command received

    (or similar) as a status. We're in a position where we want to prevent multiple device admins sending lock commands to the same lost device. Yes you can check the logs first, but are folk really going to do that?

    We also want to build a lock functionality via the API - and want to be able to check if a lock command…

  10. show log history of app activity on device

    This is a feature built into apple settings and should be pullable on an mdm solution. So we can report back activity to managers and know which apps are getting used that we deploy. Especially important with an increasingly large remote workforce.

  12. Employee Roster

    Relatively minor request: an employee roster who you could "assign" devices to. This could be a sortable column on the device list and would prevent you from having to including the employee name in the device name or notes. The only alternative I can think of is to create a device group for each employee and assign the devices accordingly. But this would be grossly inefficient.

  13. The ability to reorganize or customize the arrangement of the Profiles page

    The Profiles page becomes cluttered by all the different profiles inserted, it would be very helpful if there was an option to organize them in maps.

  14. Custom Attributes - Drop-down list with options

    We are using few Custom Attributes that can have only some options (like kiosk app). Having drop-down list with options will be really nice.

    Then it will allow us to set possible Attributes and help desk will just choice from drop-down list.

    Thanks David

  15. Change "save" when editing a profile

    ... to a different word. Perhaps "save and push"? Or perhaps saving and pushing should be two separate things.

    It's not self evident when you save the profile that it also will push the new profile to all of the devices.

  16. Change the wording of the "refresh inventory" feature

    It's not great wording. Instead, the classic circular arrows chasing each other in a button form could be used.

  17. create a way to connect to a file server on native file iOS app

    Need a way to add an smb server connection automatically. I would like to use the native files ios app. I am not seeing this as possible currently as the app is not custom configurable like apps that are purchased. Would be useful in connections to local server that are not cloud based yet but are connectable over vpn with remote work going on now.

  18. Make Lock PIN #s / Filevault Recovery Keys Available Via the API

    Same logic as Filevault Keys. Make them available via API.

    Bonus points if the new API copes could limit access to PINs/ FV keys.

  20. Send an email to the admin when Apps are automatically updated.

    We are switching from VM Ware and the admins are emailed anytime a new version of an VPP App is updated. It's very useful if there is a glitch and the new version app is the cause. Just handy to know the update went out.
