By setting up Managed Google Play the below Android Enterprise scenarios are enabled.

• Android Enterprise personally-owned with a work profile: For personal devices granted permission to access corporate data. Admins can manage work accounts, apps, and data. Personal data on the device is kept separate from work data and admins don’t control personal settings or data.

• Android Enterprise dedicated: For corporate-owned, single use devices, such as digital signage, ticket printing, or inventory management. Admins lock down the usage of a device for a limited set of apps and web links. It also prevents users from adding other apps or taking other actions on the device.

• Android Enterprise fully managed: For corporate-owned, single user devices used exclusively for work and not personal use. Admins can manage the entire device and enforce policy controls unavailable to personally-owned/corporate-owned work profiles.

• Android Enterprise corporate-owned with a work profile: For corporate-owned, single user devices intended for corporate and personal use.

There is also the Android device administrator method but if Android Enterprise is available in your country it is highly recommended NOT to use this method.

• Android device administrator, including Samsung Knox Standard devices and Zebra devices. In areas where Android Enterprise is available, Google is encouraging movement off device administrator (DA) management by decreasing its management support in new Android releases. However, where Android Enterprise or Google Mobile Services (GMS) are unavailable, you’ll want to use device administrator and familiarize yourself with these changes.
