Setting up Mobile Device Management itself is not particularly onerous, it's definitely best practice to create a new Apple ID for that purpose, however. A technical individual can already do this easily enough with the freely-available Meraki MDM. The Device Enrollment Program I believe is more complicated and inaccessible to individuals (haven't dealt with this personally), and is quickly becoming a prerequisite for many of the more invasive and useful capabilities, like the kext signing and deployment mentioned on the MicroMDM homepage.
Hm, guess I missed that...and their offering has a long way to go before I'd consider it worth paying for. An alternative then might be Jamf, they recently started offering a free tier with a handful of devices for their hosted 'Jamf Now' MDM (or at least it's free via their promotions on sites like Daring Fireball).
