What is the primary benefit of having devices in supervised mode?

Having devices in supervised mode provides enhanced oversight and control over their capabilities. When a device is in supervised mode, it can be managed more thoroughly using Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions. This mode allows administrators to enforce policies, configure device settings remotely, and apply restrictions that are not available in unsupervised mode.

For example, supervised devices can have features such as the ability to limit user access to certain apps, configure Wi-Fi settings automatically, and even enable features like remote lock and wipe. This level of control is essential for organizations that need to manage large fleets of devices, ensuring that they are secure and comply with corporate policies.

This is distinct from other aspects like device purchase costs, processing speeds, or access to beta software updates, which do not directly relate to the fundamental enhancements in management capabilities provided by supervised mode.
