Using the Microsoft Endpoint Manager, commonly known as Microsoft Intune, company administrators can deploy the Ronspot App to employee phones in the MAM configuration. MAM stands for Mobile Application Management. This approach is appropriate where the employees are using their own device, not owned or managed by the company. Where the device is controlled by the company a similar but slightly different approach is needed. This is called MDM. Mobile Device Management.
How to install Ronspot
Step 1 – Download the ‘Comp Portal’ app
Employees must download the ‘Comp Portal’ app from the Apple App Store or Google Play store on their device. Once installed, they login to the App with their company Microsoft email. While the company might be managing many Apps via Intune.
Search for ‘Comp Portal’ in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store
Step 2 – Login with your Microsoft company email
Once the Comp Portal App is installed, the employee should login with their Microsoft company email.
Here they will get presented with a list of the Apps that they can install. In the image above the Ronspot App is available to install.
Step 3 – Click on ‘Postpone’
The employee may get presented with the option to download a management profile as in the image below.
However as this is a MAM configuration this is not required. The employee should chose the ‘Postpone’ option.
