Jamf was built around a simple idea: mobile devices should work for the people who use them, and technical teams should have the control to make that happen at scale. As enterprise fleets grow more diverse, that idea doesn't change — the platform must grow with them.
Mobile devices have transformed how enterprise organizations operate. But as fleets expand, they rarely stay simple. Teams are increasingly managing a diverse mix of form factors, ownership models and operating systems. For example, a hospital system running iPads at the point of care might also have Android devices scanning barcodes and printing labels in the pharmacy. A retailer with iPhones on the floor could have Android kiosks at self-checkout. A financial services firm standardized on Apple may also accommodate employees who bring their own Android devices through an employee choice program. Managing multiple tools to support a single fleet isn't a strategy. It's overhead.
That's why Jamf's mission is to simplify securing, managing and scaling mobility to support every employee's experience, wherever work happens. This includes supporting organizations with mixed fleets. The same principles that make Jamf the trusted gold standard for Apple management — simplicity, security and operational control at scale — extend to Android when your fleet requires it. One platform. One workflow. Whatever devices your organization depends on.
And today, that cross-platform experience gets meaningfully stronger.
Two forces are reshaping mobile in the enterprise, and they're pulling in opposite directions.
The first is workforce specialization and expectations. Different roles require different tools. A frontline worker scanning inventory has different device needs than a field technician submitting service reports or a corporate employee accessing sensitive data. Employees also want to use tools they're familiar with. Organizations aren't adopting multiple device types or employee choice programs by accident. They're doing it deliberately, because the right device for the job drives better outcomes.
The second is security and compliance pressure. As device diversity grows, so does the attack surface. Regulatory requirements (e.g., PCI DSS, GDPR) don't make exceptions for unmanaged devices. Every device that touches corporate data, regardless of operating system or ownership model, needs to meet the same security standard.
The tension between these two forces is where technical teams live every day. Employees want flexibility. Security requires control. The only way to deliver both is a management platform that doesn't force a tradeoff between the two.
Android Enterprise gives admins the framework to manage devices at scale, enforcing policies, deploying apps and separating work from personal data. But before any of that happens, there's a foundational step that establishes your organization's trusted relationship with Google.
That's where Managed Google Accounts come in. They're the verified enterprise identity that Google requires before your organization can enroll and manage Android devices through a third-party platform, and the connection that makes Android Enterprise management actually work.
Jamf is expanding that support. Customers who want to bring their Android fleet into the same management workflow as their Apple devices can now do exactly that.
You can now link a Managed Google Account directly within the Jamf platform.
This connection is what unlocks Android Enterprise management through Jamf. Once established, your organization can:
Enroll Android devices at scale using Android Enterprise enrollment methods
Require enrollment to gain access to company resources
Enforce device policies across your entire Android fleet from a single platform
Keep work and personal data separate with work profiles and fully managed device configurations
It's the handshake between Jamf and Google that makes enterprise-grade Android management actually work, and now it lives where your team already operates.
If you're managing a mixed-device environment, this matters. Your team shouldn't need separate workflows, separate consoles, or separate expertise to manage Apple and Android devices. Jamf offers a streamlined experience in a platform that is optimized for Apple but adaptable to your fleet. The goal is simple: less friction, more control and devices that just work.
