The short answer: MDM software costs between $0 and about $15 per device per month in 2026. Free options exist for small fleets (Apple Business for Apple devices, Mosyle up to 30 devices, ManageEngine up to 25, Miradore up to 50). Most paid cross-platform plans cost $2 to $6 per device per month, Jamf charges $5.75 per mobile device and $12.50 per Mac, and Microsoft Intune costs $8 per user (often already included in Microsoft 365). Iru, the new name for Kandji, quotes every deal.
Every price in this guide is vendor-published, checked September 2026 on each vendor’s own pricing page, in US dollars. Where a vendor quotes only on request, we say so. Annual billing is assumed unless stated.

How much does Kandji (Iru) cost?
Kandji no longer exists under that name: kandji.io now redirects to iru.com, and Kandji Device Management is now Iru Endpoint Management. Iru does not publish any price. Every product on its pricing page (Endpoint Management, Endpoint Detection and Response, Vulnerability Management, Workforce Identity, Compliance Automation and Trust Center) says “Request a quote.”
Iru’s Endpoint Management now covers Apple, Windows and Android, with a lightweight agent, 230+ Auto Apps with zero-touch patching, and Iru AI. When you request a quote, specify device counts by platform and which Iru products you want, because EDR, vulnerability management and identity are separate line items. Buyer reviews are on the Kandji (Iru) profile and Kandji pricing page, and the Jamf Pro vs Kandji comparison covers its closest rival.

The Professional edition costs $895 a year for 50 devices on-premises or $1,195 a year in the cloud. Extra technicians start at $345 a year on-premises. The free edition manages up to 25 devices. See the ManageEngine MDM Plus profile.
Miradore (now sold by GoTo as LogMeIn Miradore) costs $2.75 per device on Premium and $3.95 on Premium+ with annual billing, or $3.30 and $4.75 monthly. Its Free plan covers up to 50 devices after a 14-day Premium+ trial. See Miradore pricing.

Business Premium costs $1 per Mac, iPhone, iPad or Vision Pro per month, and the Fuse security bundles cost $3 per Mac and $1.50 per iOS, iPadOS or visionOS device, all with a 30-license minimum and annual billing. See the Mosyle Business profile.
How much do NinjaOne, JumpCloud and Workspace ONE cost?
NinjaOne prices its platform, including MDM, per device and does not publish full pricing because it sells through partners. Its pricing FAQ says prices start “as low as $1.50 USD per month at 10,000 endpoints, increasing to $3.75 USD at 50 or fewer endpoints,” varying by region and products. See the NinjaOne Endpoint Management profile.
JumpCloud now publishes per-user prices: Device Management and MDM is $9 per user per month billed annually or $11 monthly, and Device Identity Management (device management plus identity and MFA) is $13 or $15. Its Platform packages are sold through sales, with a 30-day trial. See JumpCloud pricing.
Omnissa Workspace ONE (formerly VMware) publishes monthly prices based on 12 months prepaid: Mobile Essentials $3 per device or $5.40 per user, Desktop Essentials $4 or $7.20, UEM Essentials $5.25 or $9.45, Enterprise $10 or $15, and Platinum $15.63 or $24.71. See the Workspace ONE profile.
Per-device vs per-user MDM pricing: which is cheaper?
Per-user pricing (Intune, JumpCloud, Omnissa’s user option) wins when each person carries several devices. Per-device pricing wins for shared, kiosk and frontline devices with no named user.
A worked example: a knowledge worker with a laptop, phone and tablet costs $8 a month on Intune Plan 1, but $6.60 on Hexnode Pro (3 x $2.20) or $14.10 on Hexnode Ultimate. A warehouse with 200 shared Android scanners and 20 supervisors costs $400 a month on Scalefusion Essential (200 x $2), while a per-user product would still need licensing for each device or user.
What hidden costs should you budget for?
- Minimums: 10 devices on Scalefusion, 15 on Hexnode, 25 on Jamf’s bundles, 30 on Mosyle’s paid plans.
- Technician seats: Scalefusion and Hexnode cap admins by tier; ManageEngine includes 1 technician and charges for more.
- Annual-only billing: Scalefusion and Jamf’s bundles bill annually; Miradore and Hexnode let you pay monthly at a higher rate.
- Security add-ons: endpoint protection, identity and ZTNA are bundled by Jamf but sold separately by Iru, Scalefusion, Microsoft and others.
- Onboarding: Jamf recommends paid Premium Services for implementation; Mosyle includes onboarding at no cost.
How to choose an MDM on price
- Count devices and users separately, by platform and ownership (company-owned, BYOD, shared).
- Check what you already own. Microsoft 365 Business Premium, E3 and E5 include Intune; every Apple customer gets Apple Business free.
- Start free if you are small. Our guide to the best free MDM software compares the free tiers.
- Price the tier you actually need. Windows management, patching and Autopilot usually sit in the middle or upper tier, not the entry price.
- Run the trial with real devices and your own policies before signing an annual contract.

Frequently asked questions about MDM pricing
How much does an MDM cost?
Most paid MDM plans cost $2 to $6 per device per month in 2026. Free tiers cover small fleets, and Apple-specialist bundles with security, such as Jamf for Mac at $12.50, cost more.
What is the cheapest MDM?
For Apple devices, Apple Business is free and Mosyle Business Premium costs $1 per device. For mixed fleets, ManageEngine MDM Plus Standard works out to under $1 per device a month at 50 devices on-premises, and Scalefusion Essential costs $2.
Does Kandji publish pricing?
No. Kandji is now Iru, and every Iru product is sold on a “request a quote” basis.
Is Hexnode cheaper than Scalefusion?
At entry level, Scalefusion is slightly cheaper ($2 vs $2.20 per device) and has a lower minimum (10 vs 15 devices). At the full UEM tier, Hexnode Ultimate ($4.70) undercuts Scalefusion Business ($5).
Why do some MDM vendors hide their prices?
Vendors that sell through resellers and MSPs, such as NinjaOne, say they avoid publishing full prices to protect partner margins. Others, like Iru, price by product mix and deal size.
Is MDM priced per user or per device?
Both exist. Intune and JumpCloud charge per user, Omnissa offers either, and most others (Jamf, Hexnode, Scalefusion, Miradore, Mosyle, NinjaOne) charge per device.
Do MDM vendors discount for education and non-profits?
Several do. ManageEngine and Miradore offer non-profit and education discounts on request, and Jamf offers volume and campus-wide education pricing.
