Why Corporate Customers Need Meta Horizon Managed Services for Work

For corporate customers looking to integrate Meta Quest headsets into their workflow, whether for training, collaboration, or design—a consumer-grade setup simply won't suffice. Enterprise deployments require a robust system for managing devices, users, and security at scale. This is precisely why businesses employing Meta Quest at work should leverage Meta Horizon Managed Services (MHMS).

MHMS is an enterprise-grade subscription solution that transforms Meta Quest devices into secure, manageable, and work-ready tools, providing the necessary infrastructure to confidently deploy and scale mixed reality across an organization.

Key Benefits of Meta Horizon Managed Services

Meta Horizon Managed Services provides the essential capabilities for IT administrators to control and secure their fleet of VR devices, which is critical for large-scale adoption.

Centralized Device Management

Managing a few headsets is simple; managing a hundred or a thousand is not. MHMS provides a centralized control panel (Admin Center) that allows IT teams to manage their entire Meta Quest fleet remotely.

• Bulk Provisioning and Configuration: Easily set up and apply standardized configurations, security policies, and network settings across hundreds of devices simultaneously. This saves significant time compared to manual setup.

• Remote Actions: Administrators can perform critical actions remotely, such as wiping a lost or stolen device, resetting a PIN, or pushing out system updates, ensuring maximum security and minimal device downtime.

• Third-Party MDM Integration: MHMS supports integration with leading third-party Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions (like Microsoft Intune or VMWare Workspace ONE), allowing businesses to manage their Quest headsets within their existing IT ecosystem and management tools.

Enhanced Security and Privacy

Corporate environments demand high security and data protection. MHMS offers features specifically designed to meet these needs, including SOC 2 compliance for independent validation of data protection commitment.

• Managed Meta Accounts: Users access the devices using a managed Work Account, which keeps their professional activity and profiles completely separate from any personal Meta accounts, ensuring a clean distinction between work and private use.

• Enterprise-Grade Security: Supports features like Single Sign-On (SSO) and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)to secure device access.Administrators can also enforce security policies like mandatory device PIN requirements.

• Remote Security Controls: The ability to remotely factory reset a device or enforce certificate-based security for Wi-Fi and VPN networks adds layers of protection for sensitive corporate data.

Streamlined Application and Content Management

Controlling which applications are used in a professional setting is vital for security, focus, and compliance.

• App Deployment Control: Administrators can easily deploy private, custom-built applications (APK files) or select apps from a dedicated business channel directly to the devices.This is crucial for distributing proprietary training or collaboration software.

• Restricted Access: The service allows the IT team to disable the public Quest App Store on managed devices, preventing employees from downloading unauthorized or distracting consumer apps.

• Custom Experiences: Features like Shared Mode allow for the creation of dedicated, simplified user experiences—perfect for training labs or customer demonstrations—where a device can be used by multiple people without individual logins, and the experience is reset after each use.

Conclusion

For organizations that are serious about leveraging mixed reality with Meta Quest headsets, Meta Horizon Managed Services for Work is non-negotiable. It is the comprehensive, all-in-one solution that provides the necessary management, security, and scalability to move a VR pilot project into a full-scale, enterprise-wide deployment.¹⁵Without it, managing a fleet of devices becomes a cumbersome, insecure, and ultimately unsustainable task that corporate IT cannot afford.
