iOS 7's Education Advantage

iOS 7 embraces the environment of education with many new features to help deploy devices in schools. In the past, iOS has done a lot to help schools simplify curriculums and reach out to all kinds of students. iOS 7 comes with a handful of features that make this even easier.

You can learn even more on Apple’s Education website.

For a quick rundown, iOS 7 will allow you to:

  • Manage which apps and accounts can be used to open documents
  • Configure individual apps to automatically connect to VPN when opened
  • Manage App Store licenses for companies
  • Configure streamlined MDM enrollment
  • Obtain a single sign on for authenticating corporate credentials across apps
  • Passcode protect data in third-party apps
  • Server caching of software purchases and downloads for more efficient distribution

Ed. Note: Here at Small Dog, we love to help out students as well. We are gearing up for our annual Mac to School promotions, so stay tuned to get all the details in the coming weeks…
