Frequently asked questions about ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus vs Miradore

Which tool has a more generous free plan?

+

Miradore's free plan covers unlimited devices for basic MDM: enrollment, inventory, restrictions, and remote wipe for Android and iOS. ManageEngine MDM Plus's free plan covers only 25 devices. For budget-constrained SMBs with many devices, Miradore's free tier is more generous.

Can ManageEngine MDM Plus be deployed on-premises?

+

Yes. ManageEngine MDM Plus can be installed on-premises on Windows Server. This matters for organizations with data sovereignty requirements or regulated industries like healthcare and finance. Miradore is cloud-only.

Does Miradore manage macOS devices?

+

No. Miradore manages Android, iOS, and Windows only. ManageEngine MDM Plus adds macOS and Chrome OS to this list, covering essentially every OS a typical enterprise IT team manages.

Which tool integrates with ITSM platforms?

+

ManageEngine MDM Plus integrates natively with ServiceDesk Plus and other ManageEngine products. Miradore integrates with ServiceNow and Zendesk on its Business+ plan. For organizations already using ServiceDesk Plus, ManageEngine MDM Plus is the natural fit.

Is Miradore suitable for enterprise deployments?

+

Miradore is designed for SMBs and mid-market teams. It lacks Chrome OS management, macOS support, on-premises deployment, and deep ITSM integration. For enterprise environments with hundreds of devices and compliance requirements, ManageEngine MDM Plus is the more appropriate choice.

Does ManageEngine MDM Plus support Chrome OS?

+

Yes. ManageEngine MDM Plus manages Chromebooks, allowing IT to enforce policies, push apps via the Google Admin Console integration, and view device inventory. Miradore does not support Chrome OS.

Can Miradore remotely control Android devices?

+

Yes. Miradore's Business+ plan ($4/device/month) includes Android remote control. ManageEngine MDM Plus also provides remote access for Android and iOS, with full remote control available as an additional module.

Which tool handles BYOD better?

+

Both tools support Android and iOS BYOD work profiles. ManageEngine MDM Plus additionally supports Windows BYOD. For organizations with a bring-your-own-Windows-laptop policy, ManageEngine is the only option between the two.

Does ManageEngine MDM Plus include a secure browser?

+

Yes. ManageEngine MDM Plus includes a managed secure browser for mobile devices that enforces browsing restrictions and data loss prevention policies. Miradore does not include a managed browser.

How does pricing compare for 100 devices?

+

For 100 devices: ManageEngine MDM Plus Standard costs approximately $128/month ($1.28/device/month, annual). Miradore Business costs $200/month ($2/device/month). Miradore Free covers all 100 devices at $0 with limited features. For basic MDM on 100 devices, Miradore Free is hardest to beat on price.
