yeah Airwatch is the only MDM solution ive heard of that requires an Apple Developer account, why is it required? is it just to deploy in company apps or something?

That's correct. Last year, you had to the get the dev enterprise account in order to use airwatch but now you can use any Apple ID to create that APNS certificate verified so no need to get spend NZ$400 unless you want to deploy in house apps on iOS devices.
myopinion: Is MDM really needed if you have an Exchange server? Security is automatic once a user connects to Exchange (assuming you have set it up).
Depends on your needs. Exchange server/Active sync policies will only let you wipe the device or set a pass code. With MDM you can track the device, create custom profiles, block apps, clear passcodes etc. Not all policy's available via active sync work on these new devices like 'lock camera'
