NAVIGATION  Workplace Online > Devices

In Workplace, a device is a computing device (mobile, desktop, or laptop) that is capable of running the Workplace Desktop or Workplace Mobile . The Devices tab displays all devices you own that have Workplace Desktop or Workplace Mobile installed.

NOTE  If you are an administrator and want to locate and manage the devices of your users, refer to Manage Devices.

If you have not yet added a device, the Devices tab will display options for installing Workplace on your devices. Simply click the appropriate operating system to begin your installation(s).

When you have added one or more devices to Workplace, they will be listed on the Devices tab:

Depending on the current status of a device (Active, Disabled, Recycled, Deleted, Quarantined), different management options will be available.
