    Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for migrating a group of user devices associated with an enterprise from a first device-management service to a second device-management service. An example method can include receiving a request to migrate the group of user devices from the first device-management service to the second device-management service. The second device-management service can associate the enterprise support service with the second, rather than the first, device-management service. It can also cause the enterprise support service to install an agent application the user devices in the group. Finally, the second device-management service can remove one or more applications, associated with the first device-management service, from the user devices in the group.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for client device migration to utilize management platform features. In some examples, the client device is identified as compatible with a management platform. A migration of the client device to utilize a management platform feature is accepted through a user interface. A management platform account is created with a management platform service. A management profile is installed on the client device. The profile is compatible with the management platform. The management platform feature is enabled on the client device.

    Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for providing on-demand access to a restricted resource of a user device. An example method can include generating a profile that specifies a restricted resource and one or more conditions for that resource to be de-restricted. The profile can be sent to, and utilized by, an agent application executing on the user device. The agent application can determine that a user is requesting de-restriction of a resource and determine whether all applicable conditions are met. If the conditions are met, the agent application can de-restrict the resource. After the resource is used, the agent application can report details of the use to an administrator or management server.

    Abstract: Examples herein describe systems and methods for application-specific compliance enforcement. An example method can include receiving, at a user device, profiles containing application-specific restrictions. When a first application is opened, a management agent compares the corresponding application-specific restrictions with current device settings. This can be done with a checksum comparison where the checksums are created based on a hash with an application- or profile-specific identifier. If they differ, the management agent stores the current device settings and prompts for, or automatically changes, the device settings to new compliant values before allowing the first application to operate in the foreground of the user device screen. If the first application is closed or minimized, the stored device settings can be restored. The management agent can compare those against application-specific restrictions of the second application before allowing the second application to run in the foreground.
