About the MDI Client

The MDI client is installed on mobile devices. Users can download the application from Google Play for Android devices, or from the Apple Apps store for iOS devices. The application allows a user to enroll the mobile device with the MDI system and allows for inventory and management of the mobile device. After the application is installed, the mobile device can respond to commands sent from the MDI server to carry out an audit or to update information.

About the MDI Service

The MDI service is a Windows service that is installed on the MDI server and is responsible for handling all inbound data requests made by the MDI client and APNS or GCM.

The MDI service initiates all outbound messages and commands that are sent to the managed devices. Devices are audited according to the schedules configured in the Inventory Settings workspace.
