Integrating MacOnboardingMate (MOM) with FileWave

What

MacOnboardingMate (MOM) helps onboard or migrate Macs between Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions while preserving Automated Device Enrollment context. This page explains where MOM fits when FileWave is the destination MDM or part of the onboarding flow.

When/Why

Use MOM when a Mac needs to be onboarded into MDM or moved from one MDM platform to another. Common use cases include new-device provisioning, MDM migration projects, and device transfers where you want to preserve Automated Device Enrollment behavior.

How

MOM has two execution modes: Launcher and AutoLauncher.

Launcher is used when MOM runs manually outside MDM. AutoLauncher is used when MOM runs from within an MDM, either automatically or through Self Service.

MOM handles the onboarding or migration workflow, including unenrollment from the previous MDM and enrollment into FileWave. For new onboarding, MOM runs from FileWave MDM during Setup Assistant. For migration to FileWave, MOM runs from the MDM the Mac is leaving.

MOM includes a swiftDialog-based interface, while the DEPNotify-based interface remains available for existing workflows. MOM white-glove provisioning combined with macOS Automated Device Enrollment can give Mac deployments a pre-provisioned experience similar to Windows Autopilot.
