VMware Named a Leader in 2022 IDC MarketScape for UEM for Apple Devices
Access an excerpt to see why we believe the IDC MarketScape positioned us as a Leader.
Automate iOS Device Management
Device Lifecycle Management
Integrate with Apple Business Manager to onboard devices quickly and at scale. Automate policy and patch lifecycle. Unify management of iPhone, iPad and iPod alongside your Mac and Apple TV.
Security and Privacy
Strengthen security posture and protect work data with over-the-air policy controls. Gain rich analytics into devices using work resources, while restricting IT’s access to users’ personal information.
App Management
Manage the full app lifecycle – procurement to deployment – across any app on any iOS device. Simplify app distribution with silent, prompted, or self-service install via a secure enterprise catalog.
Increase Assurance and Productivity
Delightful employee experience on any iOS device, no matter where employees work, by offering a self-service unified app catalog with SSO, Assist remote support and Privacy Guard for user data.
Use Cases

Protect Work or School Owned Devices
Workspace ONE admins gain advanced deployment and device management controls over corporate owned or school owned devices through Apple Business Manager and School Manager integration.
This ensures the highest levels of access security – backed by certificate-based authentication, device security, and data leakage protection.

Secure Productivity on Personal Devices
Enable seamless employee productivity on personal devices while maintaining full privacy and data separation with Workspace ONE.
Whether choosing MDM enrollment, iOS user enrollment, or a secure PIM container, employees are assured frictionless access to work apps, email, calendar, contacts, intranet sites and content repositories from the convenience of their own device.

Shared or Multi-User Devices
Through integration with Apple Business Manager and Managed Apple IDs, admins can onboard supported iPads in a “shared” mode. This allows multiple users (e.g. shift workers) to access a single shared device, and experience a personalized session once checked-in. Workspace ONE resets and reconfigures the iPad between sessions so that the next user signing in has their own unique experience.

Business Continuity and Remote Work
Continue work anywhere, no matter the disruption. Through powerful integration across access management, unified endpoint management (UEM), analytics, virtualization, and endpoint security, Workspace ONE uniquely ensures business continuity.
The sudden shift to an all-remote work world would have been challenging without Workspace ONE. It allowed us to transition quickly…
VMware has been committed to our success while implementing our requirements. The reason for choosing VMware was the completeness of their portfolio.
… employees’ decision to use the device they want to, was important. Thanks to Workspace ONE, we can make all the devices chosen by users… manageable.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Automated, out-of-the-box device activation and configuration with User Enrollment.
- Unified app catalog enables self-service for users as well as admin-controlled app download and management.
- Shared device mode allows multiple users to customize experiences via check-in/check-out.
User enrollment is a new BYOD enrollment scenario with an intense focus on user privacy. On a user-enrolled device, organizations can enable the user’s work experience by providing apps, content, and SSO, but do not gain access to full device management or device-unique identifying information.
The newest method is enrolling with Apple's User Enrollment, a method that automatically separates work and personal data on devices. It protects user's privacy while securing enterprise resources. Or users can gain access to apps and other resources by logging into Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub.
Workspace ONE uses the native iOS Kerberos capabilities along with technology developed in VMware Workspace ONE Access that provides a bridge between SAML and Kerberos for authentication. Check out this whitepaper for more information.
iPads can be shared between users with a check-in and check-out process. With Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub, users sign-in to an iOS device to use the apps and content to which they’re assigned, then sign-out when they’re done (making the iOS device ready for the next user).
Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub provides a consistent experience across all Apple platforms (iOS, iPadOS, macOS) with a unified app catalog – consisting of SaaS, Native and Virtual apps with Single Sign On. It is a one-stop shop for resources including People Search, Support and corporate communication.
