What it really is

IBM's SaaS unified endpoint management console for mixed mobile, desktop and IoT fleets, priced per device.

Our take

MaaS360 is one of the few enterprise UEM tools with prices on the page, and the trial converts straight into production. Most teams will land on Essentials or Deluxe; the secure browser and container only start at Premier. If you already pay for Microsoft 365 Business Premium or E3, check Intune first because it may cost you nothing extra.

Why we rate it

Broad OS coverage and transparent per-device pricing with a converting trial.

The catch

Advanced security sits in the two top tiers, and the discounted prices are a time-limited offer.

Best for
Mixed iOS, Android and Windows fleets
BYOD programs
Frontline and kiosk devices
Not good for
Microsoft 365 E3/E5 shops that already own Intune
Apple-only teams wanting an Apple-first tool
Friction report
Time to value
Trial sign-up in minutes; enrolling devices and policies takes longer.
Scale breakpoint
Needing a secure browser or threat management pushes you to Premier or Enterprise.
Walled garden
Low to medium: manages many OS types; add-ons include TeamViewer.
