Headwind MDM is an open-source Android Mobile Device Management (MDM) platform. It helps companies of any size manage corporate phones, tablets, rugged devices, handheld scanners, kiosks, digital signage, TV boxes, and custom Android hardware from a single web-based admin panel. Unlike cloud-only MDM tools, Headwind MDM runs on your own infrastructure - including fully air-gapped networks with no internet access. The mobile agent can be signed with platform keys and preinstalled into device firmware, making it ideal for OEMs and custom ROM builds. The Community edition is free and open-source on GitHub. Premium and Enterprise editions add kiosk mode, unattended remote control, web traffic filtering, lost-device management, Samsung Knox integration, and premium support - all with a one-time perpetual license, not a per-device subscription. * * * Seller [Headwind MDM](https://www.g2.com/sellers/headwind-mdm) Discussions [Headwind MDM Community](https://www.g2.com/products/headwind-mdm/discuss) Languages Supported English Overview by Vsevolod Maiorov Show More ## Pricing Pricing provided by Headwind MDM. ### Community Free With One-Time Purchase ### Cloud $19.00 1 Device With One-Time Purchase [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/headwind-mdm/pricing) ## Top-Rated Alternatives [ ![NinjaOne](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "NinjaOne") NinjaOne 4.7/5(5,033) ](https://www.g2.com/products/ninjaone/reviews) [ ![TeamViewer](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "TeamViewer") TeamViewer 4.5/5(4,165) ](https://www.g2.com/products/teamviewer/reviews) [ ![JumpCloud](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "JumpCloud") JumpCloud 4.5/5(4,067) ](https://www.g2.com/products/jumpcloud/reviews) [ View All Alternatives ](https://www.g2.com/products/headwind-mdm/competitors/alternatives) ## User Insights Average based on 7 real user reviews.

Infrastructure & systems engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/21/2026 "Straightforward Self-Hosting with Predictable Upgrades and Open-Source Flexibility" 4/5 What do you like best about Headwind MDM? Self-hosting. The management server and device data stay on our own infrastructure, which removes a whole category of questions about where data is processed. Setup is straightforward, it runs happily behind a reverse proxy, and upgrades have been predictable. Being open source is a benefit we've patched things ourselves and sent fixes upstream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Headwind MDM? Google Play app deployment. Most of what we deploy are self-managed APKs and that side works well, but where Play apps are needed the user-assisted install still requires action on the device. It's usable, just the least polished part of the workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Headwind MDM solving and how is that benefiting you? Central management of Android devices across our own organisation and customer deployments, without handing device inventory to a cloud service we don't control.

Headwind MDM provides a simple and effective way to manage Android devices from a centralized console. The platform is easy to configure and allows us to deploy applications, enforce security policies, and monitor device status remotely. We particularly value its support for kiosk mode, remote management capabilities, and the flexibility to customize device configurations according to business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Headwind MDM? Managing applications can be cumbersome because APK updates frequently require manual intervention. Reporting and analytics are basic compared to larger enterprise MDM solutions, and the interface could be more modern and user-friendly. Some administrative tasks require multiple steps that could benefit from greater automation and workflow simplification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CTO Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 6/3/2026 "Strong Android Device Management with Self-Hosted Flexibility" 5/5 What do you like best about Headwind MDM? What I like most about Headwind MDM is its simplicity, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. It provides all the essential Android device management features without the complexity and high licensing costs of many enterprise MDM solutions. The platform is easy to deploy, supports both cloud and self-hosted environments, and offers excellent control over device configurations, applications, and security policies. I also appreciate the responsive support team and the ability to customize the solution for different business needs. Overall, it is a reliable and practical MDM platform for organizations managing Android devices at scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Headwind MDM? The main downside is that some advanced features and integrations offered by larger enterprise MDM vendors are not available out of the box. Initial setup and configuration may also require some technical knowledge, especially in self-hosted deployments. That said, the platform delivers excellent value for organizations focused on Android device management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Headwind MDM solving and how is that benefiting you? Headwind MDM helps us centrally manage and secure Android devices without having to configure each device manually. It simplifies application deployment, device provisioning, policy enforcement, and remote troubleshooting.
