Chrome Device Management Licenses

Product Description

A Chrome device management license allows an administrator the ability to manage all of their organisations chrome devices from a single place. They will be able to either pre-configure a device before it is deployed switch it on or it can be configured remotely from the Google apps control panel.

Take a look at the dedicated Chrome Device Management website for full details.

Chrome Device Management Features:

User Settings

As a Chrome administrator you will be able to set policies for how people use their Google account, whether that be on a chrome device, android device or the chrome browser. These policies are cloud managed so they are applied when the user signs in from either a personal or public device. These policies don’t apply to users signed in as guests or with a google account outside of your organisation.

See the full list of configurable user policies here.

Device Settings

Configure certain Chrome device settings either remotely or pre-configured before sending out on site. Settings such as restricting URLs the user can access, which applications they can use and how their home page is laid out can be controlled via the google apps control panel.

Some settings aren’t available for devices that are enrolled as single-app kiosks.

License Types

Full – Annual
The annual license is purchased per annual term and can be renewed when that term ends. If additional licenses are purchased mid-term, the cost is prorated and the license expires at the same time as the original. If there is a hardware failure during the term the license can be transferred to any other model of device within the same domain.
Full – Perpetual
A perpetual license covers the life of the device its enrolled to. If you encounter any hardware issues and need to replace a device, you can transfer the license to another device of the same model and can not transfer the license to another model or another device in a different domain.
Kiosk – Annual
A single app kiosk license is perfect for a device that is being used exclusively as a kiosk, digital sign or point-of-sale system and cant be used for public session kiosks. This license gives you the ability to access the settings used to configure, deploy and monitor a Chrome device running as a single app kiosk – perfect for Digital Signage use.
