Why Remote Device Management Matters More Than Ever

Overview: Remote Device Management (RDM) is now essential for businesses relying on mobile computers, printers, and scanners. Unlike basic MDM, Intermax RDM manages your entire tech fleet—remotely monitoring, updating, and troubleshooting devices to reduce downtime and security risks. From printhead tests to battery health checks, RDM keeps operations running smoothly. With centralized visibility, proactive support, and simple reports, Intermax helps you boost productivity, extend device lifespan, and lighten your IT team’s workload—without the tech headaches.

Remote Device Management (RDM) is no longer optional—it’s essential.

As businesses increasingly rely on mobile computers and printers, the cost of downtime and security breaches continues to rise. Intermax’s Remote Device Management (RDM) service protects your operations and your bottom line by keeping every device online, secure, and fully updated—reducing the risk of cyber threats, data loss, and costly disruptions.

It’s not just about connection—it’s about protection. See how RDM secures often-overlooked devices like printers and scanners.

What’s the difference between RDM and MDM?

MDM (Mobile Device Management)
Typically covers:

  • Handheld mobile computers (PTDs or “RF Guns”)
  • Tablets
  • Vehicle terminals (Windows and Android OS)
  • Business smartphones and iPhones

RDM (Remote Device Management)
Goes a step further:

  • Manages both mobile devices and printers
  • Gives you complete control over your entire technology fleet
Why It Matters

Instead of dealing with individual issues across dozens—or even hundreds—of devices, Intermax RDM provides a centralized way to monitor, update, and troubleshoot everything remotely.

Real-World Example

Recently, a major retail client faced a challenge: Mobile devices were shutting down mid-shift. Finding the cause manually would have taken days.
