We recently discovered that some of our current local admin accounts on macOS devices are using the same password. Is there a way to rotate these passwords and prevent credential misuse in the future?

Scan device location fails

Hi, I tried running the scan device location action on a Mac that’s currently in our warehouse. I was just testing it before deploying the device. The action is showing as failed in the action history though the device is physically there. Any idea why this would happen?

Hey folks, We recently ran into a situation where one of our users cannot log in to their macOS device because they forgot their local account password. Is there a way to reset that user’s macOS password directly from the Hexnode portal?

How to avoid multiple notifications when deploying SentionelOne on macOS?

I recently deployed the SentinelOne app to macOS devices. The installation works fine, but after that, users see multiple notification prompts from different SentinelOne components such as: “SentinelOne Extensions” added items that can run in the background....”. Is there a way to suppress these notifications so the installation feels completely silent for the end user?

How to disable Filevault in bulk?

Heyy folks!! I have a question about FileVault. Some of our macOS devices have FileVault enabled by default, and we want to apply a Hexnode policy for FileVault. The issue is that it’s not letting us apply the policy because FileVault is already enabled. Is there a way to mass disable this from MDM?

As an admin user, I'd like Hexnode Access to streamline the number of login authentications when logging into a device. When using Hexnode Access currently, a user has to authenticate multiple times to get into their workstation. On macOS with FileVault enabled, it's three times: drive decryption login, local user login, Google/M365 login. This…

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.

MacOS AppCatalog - Download / Install progressbar

It would be really nice to have a progress bar for the macOS App Catalog. So when i click on the desired App i can see the installation progress and also a confirmation once it is done. Just like the Managed Software Update application for Munki. Also the "installed" banner is not really appealing.

Policies/Custom Profiles for macOS & iOS Devices

Will there be changes to reflect the new profile customizations in Mojave, Catalina, and Big Sur in policies? Will there be a roadmap to be able to import custom profile configurations in to a policy so that we can further lock down and customize the look and feel to the end user?
