MDM Migration Issues

I recently migrated about a dozen devices from Rippling to Hexnode. Most of the headache came from the Rippling side, but now that everyone is completely in Hexnode we're experiencing issues there, too. The biggest issue is that one user's device in particular was rendered completely unusable. Screen flickering, apps crashing, and inability to control…

Password change in created local user account

While creating a user account, we provide a password. Can the user change the password to that of their choice when they login for the first time? In Windows I can see the option “User must change password at next login” but not in Mac. How does it work in mac?

Windows App Icon

How can I update the app icon for uploaded Windows applications? When I upload a custom enterprise Windows app (Okta Verify for example) I don't get the option to update the existing icon from the gear menu.

Control OS Updates across a mixed device setup

Hi, I need to fully control OS updates across devices in our organization (Windows, macOS, and Android). These devices are everywhere, remote users, office setups, people traveling. I don’t want users deciding when to update or skipping it. What’s the best way to handle this?

Hexnode Access: Internet Required for Login on Windows Devices

Hi, I’m facing an issue with Hexnode UEM Access on our Windows devices. Users are being prompted to connect to the internet every time they try to log in. Is there a way to disable this requirement? Alternatively, can we extend the duration for how long a device can stay offline before it forces a network login?

Locked out? Not anymore: Local login fallback in Hexnode Access

What’s new Hexnode Access now lets you fall back to local login when Hexnode Access authentication isn’t available. We’ve introduced the Fallback to Local Login option within Hexnode Access for both macOS and Windows platforms. This ensures that if cloud authentication is unavailable, users aren't left stranded at the login screen. Why it’s useful Identity providers and networks aren't infallible. Whether it’s a service outage or a "dead zone" in the field, authentication hurdles shouldn't result in…

Change password - lock icon

Hi, when changing the local user account passwords remotely via the Hexnode UEM portal, I noticed two small lock symbols sitting right next to the "New Password" and "Verify Password" fields. Does anyone know what these represent? Do they mean the field is encrypted/locked for some reason? I just want to make sure I’m not…

Windows Firewall policies

As an admin user, I'd like the ability to control Windows firewall settings by policy instead of through scripts so that we can automate and standardize our firewall settings.

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…
