Managed iOS app setting distribution via mdm
You need to implement mdm distributed settings to your apps. So office365 admins can pre configure apps with username details (possibly passwords) and share drive settings. And who knows what else.
A number of mdm solutions allow for pre configuration of apps when they are distributed by their mdm, through simple xml code, providing the app supports it.
In many schools and company's that have mdm solutions this allows them to leverage their mdm to improve the user experience of the apps.

trying to support 1000 devices and roll our new features to mobile to have a good Ux is pretty challenging without MDM Managed app configurations.

We are looking forward to having this possibility at our disposal, especially for customers with >1k devices.
