Hi everyone, recently I found that certain apps in my corporate devices are draining excessive data and storage. I want to know the bundle ID and bundle size of those apps. Where can I find this in the portal?

Account driven enrollment and personal iCloud account

Hey, I need some clarity on this setup. We’ve got 50 Mac devices we’ve been managing manually, but now our organization wants to bring them into Hexnode UEM (without resetting/erasing anything). Account-driven enrollment sounds like the way to go, but all these Macs currently have users logged in with their personal iCloud accounts. If we…

Customize dock: app order, size, and position

Hello everyone, We’d like to deploy our M2 Macs with a pre-configured set of applications in the dock, but we don’t want to restrict users from moving or resizing the dock. Is there a way to set specific apps in the dock without fully locking it down for the end user?

Mac Update Keeps Failing

Hey everyone, I keep getting error messages when I try to update my Mac. My settings allow downloads and installations from the App Store and verified developers, so I’m not sure what’s blocking it. This is my personal Mac, not managed by anyone. Anyone else run into this or know how to fix it?

How to update an app which is not managed? Solved

We have some default apps like Messages, Notes, and other pre-installed apps that were not installed through Hexnode. The apps installed via Hexnode are receiving regular updates. However, we have restrictions on the App Store, so users cannot update the apps themselves. Because of this restriction or some other issue, these default apps are not…

Policy to limit device assigned per user

Hello, It would be nice to have a policy to limit the number of registered devices for users. For example, I would only like to limit 1 macbook per user. This way the user is not able to register another device until we remove them as owner of their current device.

My company requires Office Macros are disabled. For Winodws and MacOS, this is not a built in setting in Hexnode policies. I cannot find any Powershell scripts or batch files to run and enable this setting. Can this be built in?

The system is missing support for showing the computer name, hostname, and IP address.We would like it added to the “Device Info” tab. It would also be nice if we could revert a friendly name back to the actual computer name.So that it once again follows the user's changes to the name.

Add Admin user with functionality like Microsoft LAPS

I have been a long-time user of Microsoft LAPS and would like to have similar functionality in Hexnode across different operating systems. Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) is a function that prevents using the same administrative passwords across different endpoints/devices. It regularly changes the passwords and enables management software to retrieve the correct password for…
