Silent installation of applications on TELPO devices using Android Enterprise
I have an Android application that I want to use on TELPO devices, but in a way that updates are downloaded silently on the device, meaning the user does not have to intervene to update or install an application. I understand that with the configurations offered by Android Enterprise, it is possible to set up a device to allow the actions I require.

Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well. We talk here in the community quite a lot about setting up company devices and managing devices whilst they are in use, but something we haven't gone into too much detail is what do you do with your devices once they have come to the end of their life at your company? I imagine you have to consider quite a few things; such as if you are removing devices how do you get new devices seamlessly back into use? What do you do with the old devices? Do you return them to your OEM or another company to be reused? There is a large sustainability factor here that you may also consider, as well as many other things. It would be great to hear how do you manage this? Do you have a set timeframe that you look to refresh devices? Any tips or challenges that you have discovered? Looking forward to hearing from you.

We want to start using Android Enterprise with MS Intune.
In my organization, we are going to renew equipment, and we were reviewing the option that the equipment we are quoting is an Android Enterprise Recommended device. We were considering the possibility of starting to manage all policies through Microsoft Intune. Now, my question is, aside from having an Android Enterprise Recommended device and the respective active Intune service and everything it entails, do I need anything else, or can I start managing my devices with just this? I would greatly appreciate your support and any additional comments. Best regards.[Community Tips] What processes have you created around testing?
Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well. Speaking with many of you, I know testing your devices, applications, configurations and all the other things that go into a managed solution can be a time consuming process. Especially if you have multiple types of management mode and device types to the mix as well. Based on this, I thought it would be an interesting discussion point for us all here in the community. Do you any tips or processes you have perfected around testing? Perhaps you have a checklist of things you follow? Or a timeframe that you allocate to test certain areas or a minimum number of devices you test things on before rolling it out more widely? It would be great to hear from you. Thanks, Lizzie[Community tips] What to consider when choosing a device management option?
Hello everyone, I hope you are having a great start to your September. Considering what device management option(s) will work best for your company and employee needs is an important undertaking. From strictly controlled devices to more flexible setups, you’re able to choose the management type that best aligns with your goals and the way your employees use devices. Here in the community we often see questions on this area and so I thought similar to our discussion on choosing a EMM, many of you have been through this experience (and continue to consider this). It would be fantastic to hear your community tips and advice. What tips would you recommend to someone considering and researching which particular management option to implement? How did you choose the best fit for your business needs? What are your main considerations? If you are currently going through the process, please do comment too, it would be great to hear from you. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks so much, Lizzie[Community tips] What to consider when choosing an enterprise mobility management solution?
Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good week. A management solution helps you to set up, secure and manage your devices in your organisation. I see it like a comfy hub for you to ensure that your devices are working as you expect (whatever size your company is). So understandably, one of the biggest decisions when getting started with Android at work is choosing the right EMM (Enterprise Mobility Management) for your needs. There is a solution out there to meet almost every need and use case, and sometimes knowing where to start can be tricky. We are lucky here in the community, that many people have already been through this decision and there is a huge amount of experience. The Solutions Directory is a useful place to explore partners and solution options, but there are also many questions and things to consider beforehand, so this got me thinking it would be great to share community tips/advice around this. What tips would you recommend to someone considering and researching EMMs management solutions? Are there any tips you wish you knew at the beginning? Perhaps you have tips on how best to research the different options? If you are currently going through the process, please do comment too, it would be great to hear from you. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks so much, Lizzie
What frequently asked questions do you receive?
Hello everyone, As in most roles within a company if you are oversee an area you are likely to receive questions from colleagues and other employees. This got me thinking, for those of you who are managing devices and security, what would you say are the most frequent types of questions you receive? Are there any questions you find difficult to answer or would like more information to provide them with? Or perhaps you very infrequently received question. 😀 As an example, perhaps you receive questions on why only certain apps are available in the work profile, how to update the device or can I use my own mobile?
