Hexnode review (2026): features, pros and cons, and what to check before you buy
Per-device UEM from Mitsogo with four public tiers from $2.20 per device per month and a 14-day trial.
Our take for buyers
Hexnode is a per-device unified endpoint management product from Mitsogo, the enterprise division behind it, aimed at small and mid-size mixed-OS fleets and kiosk or frontline devices. It manages mobile devices on every tier, with Windows and macOS management arriving from Enterprise and deeper control higher up. A 14 day trial is available, and pricing is public for the first three tiers.
G2 shows 4.5 from about 223 reviews, with device management and support sub-scores of 9.3 and 9.2 out of 10. Shortlist it if you want public per-device pricing. Skip it if you need generic SAML for admin login or Windows and macOS patching without moving to the Ultra tier.

What to test in a Hexnode demo or trial
Use the 14 day trial to enroll devices across your real OS mix, testing Apple Business Manager, Android Enterprise and Knox zero-touch on Pro and Windows Autopilot on Ultimate. Test kiosk mode if you run frontline devices. Check which remote actions you actually need, since remote view starts at Enterprise for mobile and Ultimate for desktop, and remote control starts at Ultimate for mobile and Ultra for desktop. Test directory sync with Entra ID, Active Directory or Google Workspace from Enterprise. Confirm technician seat counts for your admin team.
