  1. Enable alerts control in MacOS Notification Center for Managed Software Center

    At the moment, in the Notification Center, notifications for the Managed Software Center are allowed by default and greyed out. It then doesn't give the choice of turning off these notifications for users that can be easily distracted by any sort of notification

  2. Link to the group's devices when viewing a group's Details page

    When viewing a Group Details page, have a link to that group's devices.

    It's a bit frustrating to land on the Group Details page and then have to go out to all Groups and then click on the number of devices on that page to then view the devices. I can't tell you how many times I've mindlessly clicked on the group name to view devices just to be annoyed and have to go back and click the device number instead. (As a relevant aside, using the device number to see a group's devices isn't ideal. The click target changes…

  4. Export Devices

    When exporting devices, it would be nice to be presented a screen of the available data sets so that only what you are looking for could be selected rather than getting a large CSV of all data sets and having to sort through them all.

  5. Allow installing iOS apps (.ipa) on Macs with Apple Silicon

    Macs with an Apple Silicon processor support running iPadOS apps. This could be nice to allow installing such apps via SimpleMDM.

  6. Implement 2FA / OTP recovery codes

    In case of loss of the device generating the OTP codes (think stolen / broken phone with Google Authenticator), SimpleMDM offers no way to recover one's account.

    Most high-profile services (Google, Facebook, Github, etc.) when activating 2FA offer to save a list of one-time use recovery codes, used to gain access to one's account again. This makes it possible to setup 2FA on a new device.

    It would be nice if SimpleMDM had such a feature.

    Thanks !

  7. Support custom attributes in Munki scripts

    Now that custom attributes are supported in scripts, it would be great to see them supported in pre- and post-install scripts in Munki. Thanks!

  8. Please support Munki `requires` and `update_for` values

    Please support the configuration of the requires and update_for values in the package interface. It would be lovely to be able to configure these in either the catalog or assignments section. Thank you!

  9. Allow managment of System app on multiple devices

    Currently we can delete a managed app from multiple devices, but if the app isnt managed (such as pre0install Apple apps) you have to drill down to each device individually and choose to manage the app before it can be deleted.

  10. Increase munkiimport maximum package size from 5GB to 20GB

    We attempted to upload a .dmg for Xcode 12.5.1 (approx 14GB) and hit an error:

    <Error><Code>EntityTooLarge</Code>
    <ProposedSize>13988766834</ProposedSize>.
    <MaxSizeAllowed>5368709120</MaxSizeAllowed>
    </Error>

    The .xip file was downloaded from the Developer portal and unpacked in terminal using xip --expand.

    Could the upload size be increased to 20GB to allow larger .dmgs to be delivered by SimpleMDM using Munki ?

    Performance delivering Xcode from Apps & Books is patchy, and does not allow the running of a post install script to accept the licence and install the embedded packages.

    This could be for a test instance initially to check performance.

    Non-integrated munki and local mirrors…

  12. The email sent to users added to the mdm portal should indicate the name of the role they have been granted

    Currently when a user is added to any role, custom or predefined, they are sent an email saying they have been added as an administrator:

    "A SimpleMDM user at [email protected] has granted you administrative permissions to their "XYZ" account."

    Ideally the message should indicate the role in particular rather than a blanked "admin", for example if a role named Support is assigned to the user:

    "A SimpleMDM user at [email protected] has granted you Support permissions to their "XYZ" account."

  14. FDE recovery key escrow status as a filter

    it would be helpful to include the FDE recovery key escrow status (rather than the key itself) as well as the firmware password status.
    As a company policy, we'd like to enforce these and check who forgot to turn it on or off. Going through devices one by one is quite hard.

  15. Compare Profiles

    It would be helpful to have a tool that would allow comparing profiles. In particular custom profiles, but I could see this being helpful with the others as well.

  16. notification when a duplicate serial number enrolls

    So - I appreciate this is kind covered here:

    https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/17906179-device-audit-screen-find-duplicates-sort-by-last

    But... we're drowning in duplicate entries. Basically they're almost all devices that have gone for repair, resulting in a new UUID (with the occasional virtual machine)

    a webhook or other notification when a device with a pre-existing serial number enrols would really help us with our housekeeping.

  17. Compare groups

    Would love the ability to compare the applied profiles etc. between two groups, highlighting the differences in simple language. This would be so useful in those cases when you've made clones over time, and it's not exactly clear how things have changed from one to the other.

    For instance Group B differs from Group A...

    Has different password profiles...30 day expiry vs 90 day.
    Has one extra profile that adds WiFi credentails.
    Has different restrictions... Allowed Airdrop.

    Thanks

  20. Block/prevent local logins when SAML is enabled

    I appreciate that you need to login with a local account to setup the SAML settings initially... but we have a requirement that all access to applications is managed through an IdP and that there's not a "back door" that can bypass the IdP.

    We could live with working with support to enable/disable local login if there was an issue with SAML.

    Access to MDM grants a lot of power to a fleet of devices - we'd like more central control over who has access...
