Since 1992, FileWave has helped IT teams manage complex, multi-platform endpoint environments with consistent policy, unified visibility, and operational control. Organizations across enterprise, education, healthcare, government, and regulated industries rely on FileWave to operate diverse endpoint ecosystems without fragmentation. FileWave provides endpoint management across macOS, Windows, iOS, ChromeOS, and Android from a single operational model. Policies remain consistent across operating systems, visibility stays unified, and enforcement works across platforms rather than per device type. Hybrid, cloud, and on-prem deployments are supported natively, enabling organizations to manage endpoints without architectural compromise. From imaging and deployment to patching, configuration, security enforcement, and ongoing lifecycle management, FileWave enables IT teams to maintain operational confidence across diverse environments. Instead of forcing infrastructure to conform to one platform strategy, FileWave is built to operate across diversity by design. * * * Seller [FileWave](https://www.g2.com/sellers/filewave) Discussions [FileWave Community](https://www.g2.com/products/filewave/discuss) Languages Supported German, English, French, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog, Thai, Turkish, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional) Overview by Maximilian Aude Show More ## Pricing Pricing provided by FileWave. ### Education Starting at $2.00 1 Devices or Users Per Year ### Enterprise Starting at $12.00 1 Devices or Users Per Year [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/filewave/pricing) ## Top-Rated Alternatives [ ![Jamf](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Jamf") Jamf 4.7/5(2,304) ](https://www.g2.com/products/jamf/reviews) [ ![Scalefusion](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Scalefusion") Scalefusion 4.7/5(404) ](https://www.g2.com/products/scalefusion/reviews) [ ![Iru](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Iru") Iru 4.7/5(842) ](https://www.g2.com/products/iru/reviews) [ View All Alternatives ](https://www.g2.com/products/filewave/competitors/alternatives) ## User Insights Average based on 20 real user reviews.

It is pretty detailed oriented and provides lots of features that other MDMS may not have. The multi-platform support is very helpful for managing various devices in one centralized location.

Sometimes the platform can get confusing but once you pass those hurdles, it becomes much easier to maneuver and work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is FileWave solving and how is that benefiting you? It allows for our various IT members to monitor and support all our devices and locations.
