exe-files pre-configuration

At present, Hexnode does not offer the option to set a predefined configuration for .exe apps. Deploying common apps daily can be a cumbersome process using Hexnode. It would be helpful if Hexnode could enable a predefined configuration feature for .exe apps.</div>

Test-Path in Powershell Scripts

I've come to realize that any script with Test-Path in any Powershell Script causes an "Access Denied" error when pushed through Hexnode. The script works exceedingly well when I run it locally as an administrator. But when I run it with Hexnode it consistently gives me an Access Denied error. I'm not 100% sure how…

Disabling Office Macros

My company requires Office Macros are disabled. For Winodws and MacOS, this is not a built in setting in Hexnode policies. I cannot find any Powershell scripts or batch files to run and enable this setting. Can this be built in?

Windows Group Policy Objects functionality

I think it would be a killer feature for managing Windows systems if you could add Group Policy Objects functionality to Hexnode MDM. It will require major work in the Windows Agent but I think this could really set you apart from the competition. Suggestion on how to implement it: Give the Hexnode admin the…

Ability to read and set windows Registry Keys

I would very much have the ability to set registry keys in Windows. It would also be nice if you could read a defined set of registry keys and combine it with a reporting functionality to make a device out of compliance if the keys differ from expected.
