Learn how to setup MDM for Google.

Updated over 3 months ago

The Google section of the MDM Setup tab in Trio is where organizations configure their Android Enterprise integration. This integration is essential for deploying, managing, and securing Android devices at scale, especially in organizations with BYOD or company-owned Android fleets.

When configured correctly, Google Android Enterprise ensures seamless device enrollment, policy enforcement, and remote management capabilities directly through the Trio platform.

Google Android Enterprise Integration

After a successful setup, you’ll see the following configuration block under Google MDM Setup:

  • Enterprise name (e.g., TRIO DEMO EU)

  • Enterprise ID

  • Administrative contact fields (Name, Email, Phone, Officer name, etc.)

  • Status actions like:

    • Test Connection

    • Disconnect

    • Edit Info

These fields represent the linkage between your organization’s Google Workspace (or personal Gmail) and Android Enterprise, managed via the Managed Google Play console.


Key Functions

With this integration enabled, IT admins can:

  • Enroll Android devices using Android Enterprise Work Profile or Fully Managed modes

  • Push policies remotely through MDM profiles

  • Distribute and manage apps silently via Managed Google Play

  • Apply compliance restrictions and monitor device posture in real time


Admin Actions

Test Connection
Check if the link between Trio and Android Enterprise is functional. A successful connection ensures that enrollment and policy push will work properly.

Disconnect
Severs the integration from the organization. This is typically only used when re-authenticating or switching accounts.

Edit Info
Allows admins to update officer contact details such as name, email, and phone number, ensuring visibility and accountability in the organization.


Why It Matters

Connecting to Google Android Enterprise is not optional—it is critical to fully leverage Android device management capabilities in enterprise environments. This setup provides the backbone for secure provisioning, lifecycle management, and enforcement of compliance policies on mobile endpoints.


📌 Best Practices

  • Always use a dedicated Google Account or Google Workspace Admin account for setting up Android Enterprise.

  • Keep contact details up to date to ensure audit-readiness and support case escalation.

  • Use the Test Connection option regularly to verify that credentials remain valid.


By configuring Google Android Enterprise in Trio, your organization ensures a scalable, policy-driven, and secure Android device fleet—whether fully managed or bring-your-own. This is your central control for Android compliance and lifecycle automation.
