Uncharted Territory: Linux Management in Workspace ONE
An area that is largely uncharted territory in Workspace ONE and many other UEM platforms is Linux Management. In recent months, VMware has extended their Linux Management to include Puppet as a gateway to push commands and invoke all sorts of things on devices. My foray into this is similar to my MacOS deep dives […]

The Ultimate Freestyle Orchestrator Workflow: Dell Command Update
I have been writing about Freestyle Orchestrator workflows for a few years. First, I wrote about the introduction to FSO. Next, I went into some great real-world examples with Freestyle Orchestrator. (that honestly had a weak swing at DCU). My last article covered transitioning from products to scripts/workflows. Today’s article is going to be amazing! […]
Evaluating Microsoft Intune against Workspace ONE UEM: Windows Edition 2023 Edition
Well, this has been long overdue. A few years ago, we had a three-part series, and we will do the same this time around. It’s an easier format to digest and this week we will start with Workspace ONE Core. You can reference the old article here. We will be covering UEM Core, Application Management, […]

Microsoft Remote Help: Your Windows 365 Companion
Windows 365 is starting to step up its game in 2023. Over the last few weeks, we got the Windows 365 app into production, MMR into production, hardware acceleration for the web client, and much more. Another major aspect to Windows 365 at scale is being able to support users. Today, we will be talking […]
Workspace ONE Marketplace: Freestyle, Templates, and More!
This past year at VMware Explore, we received a demo of the Workspace ONE Marketplace led by people like Shawn Bass and the recently departed Brian Link. In retrospect, they probably undersold the part of this that really matters (Freestyle Orchestrator’s debut into WS1 Intelligence). Recently, VMware has released the Marketplace, which I have done […]

One of […]
