# Devices

**Device Management** is the core functionality of Verifone Central - Device Management. Device Management functionality simplifies deployment, organization, and remote management of a wide range of devices.

Deploying the devices on Device Management is a two-step process.

* Onboarding
* &#x20;Registering

Onboarding the device is enrolling the device details in Device Management. Once the devices are onboarded, the device first establishes or registers itself with Verifone Central - Device Management automatically when the device connects to the server for the first time. The devices can be onboarded on Device Management through various modes.
