MDM End of Life only affects on-premises ESET PROTECT users
The Mobile Device Management component for ESET PROTECT Cloud (CMDM) will continue to be fully supported. If you want to continue using Mobile Device Management from the ESET Management console, migrate from on-premises ESET PROTECT MDM to ESET PROTECT Cloud CMDM.
Continuation of protection
ESET Endpoint Security for Android will be fully supported after the MDM component reaches End of Life status and will provide full protection on all applicable endpoints/mobile devices. However, the management of such devices is not guaranteed after the MDM End of Life date. To maintain the functionality of all endpoints/mobile devices managed by MDM, migrate to CMDM.
Management of ESET PROTECT MDM for iOS & iPadOS will be functional within the limits of the End of Life policy. To maintain full functionality, migrate to CMDM.
Migrate from MDM to CMDM
You must manually unenroll all devices from the on-premises MDM versions and re-enroll all devices to ESET PROTECT Cloud CMDM.
If you are in a situation where you require a license upgrade to a cloud license, contact your local ESET partner to learn more about our cloud subscriptions.
