User based app distribution via VPP without device enrolment.
Currently Simple MDM allows for user based app distribution when they have a device enrolled into the MDM, however, there are circumstances where an entity may not wish to manage an end users device, such as a BYOD program in a K-12 institute.
In these circumstances, it would be great to have a mechanism by which one could import users and their email, or use an API call, to send out invites to participate in receiving Apple ID based managed distribution apps via VPP.
For example, we would import users from a CSV (Name,Email); or use an API call with…

New VPNSubType is com.sonicwall.SonicWALL-Mobile-Connect

Password attribute
It would be super, it it was possible to create a attribute such as Password (with hidden entry), so that it is not necessary to separately VPN accounts for all users, but that it would be enough to do it once.

Customise Enterprise WiFi trust
In Apple Configurator 2, there is an option to customise the “Trust” of a Wi-Fi configuration. This allows connecting to an enterprise network (in my case TTLS+PAP) without getting the “Untrusted Certificate” pop-up on iOS.
It would be great to be able to set these fields in the SimpleMDM UI too!
(I actually spent a few days searching why I was getting this pop-up on iOS, and not on macOS; turns out on macOS having the certificate installed in the keychain seems to be enough, but not on macOS…)1 vote -
Notification if device battery level drops below a specified percentage
It would be extremely useful if a device dropping below a minimum specified battery level would trigger a notification to the administrator via email. This is a weak point with remotely located devices that are left on and accessible for long periods at a time. Even the genuine high wattage Apple chargers can require a power cycle after being left on for long periods, to avoid the device battery discharging faster than it is maintained.

Add API endpoint for setting default custom profile value
Currently, the API only allows to set a custom profile value for a device, not a default value globally.

make profile removal password protected without enrolling with DEP
This was previously declined in 2018, here: https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/34296127-make-profile-removal-password-protected-without-en
I suspect the answer was wrong then, but it is definitely wrong now, in December 2019, for macOS 10.15.2.
I created a one-time enrollment, downloaded the mobileconfig, stripped the signature, added a RemovalPassword via Configurator (v2.11), and installed the profile. My device then connected to SimpleMDM and downloaded the rest of the config. This is presented in the 10.15.2 Profiles Pane UI as a set of distinct profiles (1 per profile configured in SimpleMDM). None of those "mini profiles" are removable but the top level one is. When removing it, it requires…

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.

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…

Support Classes and Accounts from Apple School Manager
Massive market potential in the K-12 space if support for pulling over classes/users from Apple School Manager was implemented. Your competitors (Airwatch, etc.) do this quite well. We deploy 100's of iPads to classrooms and really like the ability for each cart to have 20 iPads with the user accounts for those classrooms synced from ASM. This would be a game-changer and a feature that is non-existent right now. There is a growing market in the K-12 space looking for this, make it happen!

Add the Configuration profile - Network usage rules
I'd like to be able to natively use the Network usage rules configuration profile, rather than creating a custom configuration profile.
This will give me the ability to control what network type an app can use.

Allow device specific packages [on the device page]
Either mdm installed packages, or munki catalogs named by the serial number of the device.
I could currently create assignment groups for each serialnumber but that is tedius. Even if automated, It would still clutter up the assignment groups screen. I'd want to see the device specific catalogs/assignment groups on the device page.
The use case here is the nebula "vpn" client which needs a per host certificate. I was thinking of delivering these host specific certs by .pkg

Extend the included Device fields via the CVS download option
Appears to be missing a few key fields:
- passcode policy enabled (This is not the same as "firmware password" and btw, a similar field is downloaded but we think it's tied to iOS devices as opposed to Mac OS)
- Firewall enabled
- Mac OS Patch Management enabled
- Anti-virus / Malware enabledYou may recognize these as SOC2 requirements. Would be ideal to run a report / download for all devices with this data included. Thanks!
