Integrating Telepod with FileWave

What

Telepod is an Agnosys automation tool for iOS and iPadOS device setup, backup, replacement, sorting, and MDM migration. It can work with FileWave to move inventory values and issue supported MDM commands during a workflow. Enrollment and supervision behavior depends on the workflow: direct Migration uses Device Enrollment and retains supervision, while Migration Back to My Device uses a pivot device and Automated Device Enrollment.

When/Why

Use Telepod when an organization needs a repeatable, remotely monitored workflow for individual or batch device preparation, replacement, backup, sorting, or migration between MDM solutions.

How

Telepod runs customizable workflows from a Mac host. Agnosys currently documents eight workflow types:

Backup: Back up one device so its backup can be used as a template for other devices.
Migration: Move a device directly from one MDM to another through Device Enrollment while retaining supervision.
Migration Back to My Device: Move a device through a pivot device, then return the original device through Automated Device Enrollment.
Replacement: Replace one current device with a new device enrolled in the same or a different MDM.
Replacement en masse: Replace batches of current devices with new devices.
Setup: Configure one device, optionally from another device's backup.
Setup en masse: Configure devices in batches, optionally from a template backup.
Sorting: Inspect devices in batches for inventory and battery diagnostics.

Data is transferred locally over a wired connection for Backup, Replacement, and Setup workflows, bypassing the need for iCloud. Backups can be stored centrally in a distribution point, making them available worldwide.

Telepod can use swiftDialog or DEPNotify for its user interface. The screenshots below show a FileWave replacement workflow, and the demo is explicitly labeled as the DEPNotify interface.

The tool supports multiple languages, currently available in English and French, and can be localized to other languages as required. Telepod is a "turnkey" software, meaning no scripting knowledge is required for implementation or upgrade.

Complete documentation on how to use Telepod with FileWave is provided upon purchase, offering detailed instructions and support. Please note that Telepod supports a variety of MDM solutions with FileWave included.
