Open device management
Manage devices your way
We wanted an open-source MDM to easily use configuration-as-code, deliver the best possible experience for our employees, and make security happy.

Watch demo Operating systems
Manage Apple, Windows, Linux, and Android devices in one place. Fleet supports diverse, mixed environments with no vendor lock-in.
Automated enrollment
Drop ship devices with Apple Business Manager or Autopilot. End users can set up their own devices. No IT help needed.
Config management
Bring devices into a secure, predictable state, no matter where they start. Define, target, and deploy the right settings to the right devices.
Software management
Keep applications and plugins secure and up-to-date automatically. Install the software end users need or let them install it themselves via self service.
Custom scripts
Run the right script at the right time, across any platform. Remediate drift, gather diagnostics, and automate fleet-wide tasks.
Flexible by design
Manage devices via Fleet’s UI, API, or GitOps. The open-source community helps extend what’s possible, from platform support to deployment workflows.
