Is Miradore's free plan actually useful?
+
Miradore's free plan provides unlimited device enrollment, basic policy enforcement, and device inventory for Android and iOS. It lacks kiosk mode, advanced app management, and remote control. For basic BYOD policy enforcement in a small team, it is genuinely useful.
Does AirDroid Business manage iOS devices?
+
No. AirDroid Business is Android-only (with a Windows beta). Miradore manages Android, iOS, and Windows — making it a better fit for organizations issuing iPhones alongside Android devices.
Which tool is better for kiosk deployments?
+
AirDroid Business has more specialized kiosk capabilities — custom branded launcher, black-screen remote control, optimized support for rugged devices from Zebra and Honeywell, and per-device kiosk profiles. Miradore's Business plan includes kiosk mode but is less feature-rich for dedicated kiosk use.
Can Miradore remotely control Android devices?
+
Yes, but only on the Business+ paid plan. Miradore's free and Business plans do not include remote control. AirDroid Business includes full remote control with black-screen mode at all paid tiers.
Does AirDroid Business integrate with rugged device OEMs?
+
Yes. AirDroid Business has optimized integrations for Zebra, Honeywell, and other rugged device manufacturers, enabling features like OEM-specific configurations and hardware lock-down. Miradore is a general MDM without rugged device specialization.
How does pricing compare for a 100-device fleet?
+
For 100 devices: AirDroid Business Basic costs $1,200/month. Miradore Business costs $200/month. Miradore Business+ costs $400/month. If you only need basic MDM without kiosk or rugged features, Miradore is 3–6x cheaper.
Does Miradore support Apple DEP zero-touch enrollment?
+
Yes. Miradore Business and Business+ plans support Apple Device Enrollment Program (DEP/ADE) for zero-touch iPhone and iPad enrollment. AirDroid Business does not manage Apple devices.
Can AirDroid Business geofence devices?
+
Yes. AirDroid Business Business plan includes geofencing — you can trigger actions (lock, alert, restrict apps) when a device leaves a defined geographic area. Miradore's geofencing is limited in comparison.
Which tool is GDPR-compliant?
+
Both Miradore (headquartered in Finland/EU) and AirDroid Business (data centers in EU and US) publish GDPR compliance documentation. Miradore's EU headquarters may provide additional comfort for EU-based organizations with strict data residency requirements.
Can both tools be used alongside a PSA?
+
AirDroid Business integrates with ticketing via webhooks. Miradore integrates with ServiceNow, Zendesk, and other ITSM tools on its Business+ plan. Neither tool functions as a PSA replacement.
