SQOOL MDM: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

SQOOL MDM is a device management console for schools from UNOWHY, a company based in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France, that offers tablets, PCs and educational software. From a single console you manage tablets, PCs and mobile classroom sets: deploy configurations remotely, synchronise accounts with directories, set profiles for pupils, teachers or classes, configure Wi-Fi and proxy settings, and lock, wipe or locate devices. Educational apps can be installed or removed on one or several devices. A dashboard shows the state of the fleet, usage and comparisons between schools. With SQOOL Protect you can switch on parental control and web filtering.

UNOWHY is a French SAS and describes itself as independent; its website names no foreign parent company. According to the vendor, data of the solution is stored in France and processed in line with the GDPR. The website does not say whether the console is delivered as a cloud service or as an installation, so ask the vendor, and request the data-processing agreement.

Why digital sovereignty matters with SQOOL MDM

SQOOL MDM is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.
