This is the solution I would recommend to ClearView to stay in business.

Either they don’t have the expertise to distribute enterprise apps or their clients are not capable of maintaining a MDM software and an Apple Enterprise Account. The latter really bugs me though. It implies that e.g. police officers can install any software on their work devices if they wanted too, which might endanger citizens because of possible data leaks by device loss or hacks. With a MDM you can wipe sensitive data remotely and separate private data from work relevant data.

We distribute our business apps as unsigned xcarchives and our clients resign them with their Enterprise Certificates and Provisioning Profile and this can distribute them as they like.
