When you set up Google endpoint management, you can choose between basic and advanced management for mobile devices. You can also customize management across device types. Each level of management gives you a different set of features.
- Use basic managementif you only want to secure devices with a screen lock or passcode and have the ability to remotely wipe corporate accounts from them, and manage apps on Android devices. With basic management, synchronizing a device’s OS version and encryption status can take a few days. During this time, access to Google Workspace services from these devices might be affected if you use Context-Aware Access.
- Use advancedmanagement * for more control over device policies and passwords, to manage apps on Android and Apple iOS devices, and for the ability to wipe all data from devices.
