What is phased deployment, does it matter?
Hey folks! I keep hearing about phased deployments in device management. Can someone explain what phased deployment actually means in a practical sense?

Hey everyone, I’m hitting a wall with our bandwidth. We’ve got a bunch of Windows 11 endpoints across five branch offices. Every 'Patch Tuesday,' our WAN links just crawl because every single machine tries to pull a 4GB Cumulative Update from Microsoft at the same time. I’m using an MDM solution to manage them, and I’m wondering: Is there a way to push a script or a policy…
Hey people, I’m trying to force install updates on some Macs. I’d used a policy for this with the update settings set to Download and Install and manually triggered the updates. But the devices remained on the current version, which is weird as in the Action history as I see the action status as Initiated. Anyone got any thoughts on how to fix this issue?
Hey everyone, quick question about Zebra OS updates. We downloaded the latest OS update package directly from Zebra, but we are hitting a wall trying to install it. Does anyone know if we can just push this file directly to the devices?
Hey folks, One of our users keeps reporting that their iPad refuses to install iOS updates even though Hexnode shows that an update is available. The device just sits there doing nothing. Wi-Fi is fine; the command was sent but still has no progress. Has anyone bumped into this before?
I have mac devices that are showing Tahoe 26 has been downloaded and is "installable" in Hexnode. They are currently running Sequoia 15.5 and I need to get them to 15.7.1. 15.7.1 is not showing on some devices only Tahoe 16. How do I push 15.7.1 to these devices so they will update from 15.5…
I’ve been wanting to defer the latest macOS update for macOS 26 Tahoe for the Macs in my organization. But on the other hand, I do not want any security updates or other minor updates to be deferred in the process of delaying the OS update for the systems. Is there a way to achieve this in Hexnode UEM?
Hi everyone, This post walks you through everything you need to know about managing the Windows 10 to 11 upgrade using Hexnode. Windows 10 has had a great run since its launch in 2015. Between Windows Hello, ATP, Virtual Desktops, and the UWP app model, it really changed how we work. But now it's time…
IT administrators can now take full control over how and when iOS devices receive system and security updates, all with fewer delays and less back-and-forth between the device and the server. We’re thrilled to introduce support for Declarative Device Management (DDM)–powered Software Update Preferences for iOS devices! What’s New? Seamless configuration of managed iOS software…
Hey Community, so, the question is how do i group multiple patches for devices. Now the thing is i can deploy the patches individually; however, I've noticed this way of updating leads to overhead due to the time lost in reboot cycles. What are some of the strategies that we could implement using Hexnode where…
I'd like to suggest a custom log function on every device. The log should be used to keep track of the actions on the IT-support. Example: 2022-09-13 14:40: User was asked to update device OS 2022-07-03 09:13: Device had new screen installed after user dropped device from desktop 2021-01-10 13:04: Device had faulty charger, replaced…
