FileWave
FileWave is a unified endpoint management platform for organizations managing computers, phones, tablets, and other devices across major operating systems. It supports Windows, macOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, Android, and ChromeOS, and can be hosted in the cloud or installed on an organization's servers. Enrollment options include zero-touch deployment and frameworks such as Windows Autopilot, Apple ADE/DEP, and Android and ChromeOS enterprise options. Administrators can distribute apps, updates, scripts, and content with standard installers or Filesets. Its patented Fileset Technology sends changes at file level and allows deployed files to be edited or removed. The platform supports scheduled OS and third-party application patching, with testing and rollback options for Fileset revisions. Security features include encrypted communications, remote lock and wipe, and administrator two-factor authentication. Audit-ready reports cover devices, configurations, patching, licenses, encryption, and compliance. The free Community Edition is limited to 15 computers, 15 tablets, and 15 Chrome devices, with community support and no included support service.
