What our customers say
“Albion provides a powerful, feature-rich system that provides everything our schools require from an MDM. From a management perspective it is simple to use, distributing apps, profiles or documents to multiple users takes just a few clicks. Most importantly it allows our teachers to focus on teaching, confident that the students have everything that they need on their iPad. The Parent app provides additional functionality to complement existing iPadOS parental controls to help manage the iPad at home.”
