Managing Phone Contacts with MDM Solutions

Satish Shetty Updated by Satish Shetty

The Codeproof Cyber Device Manager® platform simplifies the organization of your phone contacts and communications. Through our centralized system, MDM/UEM Administrators can easily publish and manage business contacts on devices. This not only streamlines contact management but also ensures that existing user contacts remain untouched, as the upload operation does not overwrite them.

Here are the instructions for syncing contacts from email accounts. Additionally, detailed instructions for importing and exporting iCloud contacts in the VCARD format can be found here.
