Heard good things about Meraki System Manager. How you finding it?

Need some tips on how to use Apple DEP.

 

[fairm010]

To be honest we use it more for geolocation etc rather than for deploying settings as we do that with Apple Configurator on the Mac.

These are used by students and we deploy apps to them.

How do you find apple configurator? I haven't used it but have been told it enables you to enable the supervisor settings which other wise would only be possible using DEP. Still trying to get my head round this own iTunes account for each iOS device malarkey. Hoping DEP will make things easier.

You don't need an iTunes account per device. PM me if you want my email and we can go into detail about our setup here.
