The latest version of Omnissa Workspace ONE UEM v2406 delivers powerful enhancements that simplify administration, improve device management and modernize your infrastructure. If you’re currently managing Apple or cross-platform devices with Workspace ONE, here’s what you need to know and how Tech Orchard can help you take full advantage of the newest features.

Enhanced Administrator Console navigation

The admin console has received a major usability refresh, available in limited release and requiring activation by your account team. Key navigation updates include:

  • Security: Consolidated access to Compliance Policies, Workspace ONE Tunnel and Email Security
  • Devices: All device management tools now grouped under Lifecycle, Staging and Peripherals
  • Resources: A broader section covering Apps, Profiles & Baselines, Certificates, Scripting, Content, Books and VPP Orders
  • Orchestration: Integration of Freestyle Orchestrator workflows and Product Provisioning
  • Monitor: Streamlined analytics and event tracking under Reporting, Events & Logs, and Workspace ONE Telecom

Admins will be able to navigate faster, locate features more intuitively and complete tasks with fewer steps.

Modernized SaaS architecture

Workspace ONE UEM v2406 introduces a shift to a microservices-based architecture, boosting scalability, resilience and long-term maintainability. Key capabilities include:

  • Resource Delivery Optimization: Devices now check in every four hours and automatically reach their target state, eliminating the need for manual sync triggers
  • Fast Lane Deployment: Enables immediate device check-ins to ensure critical resource updates are deployed on time
  • Improved Troubleshooting: Enhanced event logs make it easier to pinpoint and resolve install/remove issues

Note: Omnissa recommends reviewing and resolving invalid Smart Groups to avoid issues during or after migration.

This update lays the foundation for a more agile, efficient UEM environment that scales with your organization’s growth.

Expanded OS support: iOS 18 + macOS Sequoia

Workspace ONE UEM v2406 supports the newest Apple operating systems:

  • iOS 18: Take advantage of declarative device management, enforce software update policies and defer OS updates for up to 90 days to allow time for app testing
  • macOS 15 (Sequoia): Seamless support for Apple’s latest macOS release, with update deferral options and full profile compatibility

These additions ensure your Apple devices stay compliant and up-to-date while giving IT time to test and validate apps before rollout.

Enhanced security features

Security takes another leap forward with v2406:

  • Workspace ONE Tunnel: New container-based deployment model improves management and security
  • Mobile Threat Defense: Supports smart group assignments and dual enrollment for Android devices (Work Profile or COPE)
  • Signal Sharing: Expanded partnerships and integrations, including support for the Shared Signals Framework and continuous access evaluation protocol, enhancing security posture.

With these security updates, your team can reduce risk, respond faster to threats and meet compliance standards more easily.

Experience Management now built in

Experience Management is now fully integrated into the UEM console, giving you new tools to monitor and improve the digital employee experience:

  • Experience Scores: Comprehensive scores across mobile, desktop, and Horizon endpoints, combining device, application, and in-guest session telemetry with employee sentiment
  • AI-Powered Insights: Automated detection and prioritization of performance issues
  • Incident Reports: One central place to track, troubleshoot, and collaborate on issue resolution, combining impact data, root cause analysis, and workflows

These tools allow IT to proactively improve end-user satisfaction, reduce help desk tickets and support a more productive workforce.
