Introduction
The Enterprise App Catalog in Microsoft Intune provides prepackaged Win32 applications that are ready to deploy to managed Windows devices. Instead of manually packaging apps with install commands, detection rules, and requirements, you can select apps from the catalog and deploy them with preconfigured settings. This accelerates app onboarding and reduces the packaging effort required for common business applications.
What will you learn?
In this module, you learn how to:
- Discover and deploy applications from the Enterprise App Catalog
- Configure default install commands, detection rules, and requirements
- Monitor catalog app updates and use supersedence to transition to newer versions
- Use the Managed Apps report to verify deployment status and troubleshoot issues
Example scenario
Suppose you manage Windows devices for a mid-sized organization. Your users need access to productivity tools and security software, but your IT team has limited time for packaging applications. The Enterprise App Catalog helps you deploy these apps quickly with prebuilt packages while still allowing you to customize settings when your environment requires it.
