WSO2 Enterprise Mobility Manager (EMM) comprises of two key aspects: Mobile Device Management (MDM) and Mobile Application Management (MAM). WSO2 EMM is 100% open source and is developed on top of WSO2 Carbon for greater scalability and interoperability.

The user management module enables administrators to manage the WSO2 EMM users. If required, administrators can connect their own user store to WSO2 EMM. The configuration module enables the tenant administrators to customize their general, Android and iOS settings.
