Pricing Models Explained
MDM platforms use different licensing approaches. Understanding the model helps you estimate total cost of ownership.
Per-Device Licensing
Pay a fixed monthly fee for each managed device. Straightforward scaling model ideal for shared or dedicated device fleets.
Per-User Licensing
Price per user regardless of how many devices they enrol. Best for BYOD environments where users have multiple devices.
Freemium
Free tier for small fleets with paid upgrades for advanced features. Perfect for evaluation or small organisations.
Bundled with Suite
MDM included as part of a larger enterprise software bundle. Zero incremental cost if you already have the parent license.

Per-Device vs Per-User
Per-device licensing works best when each employee uses one device, or for shared/kiosk devices. Per-user licensing favours BYOD environments where employees bring 2-3 devices each.
Hidden Costs to Watch
- Add-on modules for endpoint security or remote support
- Per-device certificate or gateway licensing
- Professional services for deployment and migration
- Minimum seat requirements that force over-purchasing
