How to enroll devices in Device Admin Mode on the SureMDM console

SureMDM offers a simple solution in the form of a QR Code for mass configuration and deployment. You can create a QR code that can be scanned to enroll the device in the SureMDM console using the SureMDM Agent installed on the device. Once the device is enrolled, you can right away start managing your Android devices using the SureMDM Web Console.
