We performed a comparison between 42Gears SureMDM and Jamf Pro based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It works well if you have a Microsoft environment."
"The most valuable feature is probably mobile device management. Small businesses are coming under greater scrutiny and requirements for compliance as time goes on. We don't have to worry about a VPN because we can manage these devices, control company data, and lock users out. If needed, we can remotely wipe devices and deadman-switch them."
"The most valuable feature is the UEM capabilities."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments."
"I haven't used other mobile device management solutions, but compared to SCCM, we eliminate a lot of on-premises infrastructure and maintenance by using Intune."
"It is quite policy-enabled, so you can build pretty much any policy to manage remote endpoints."
"The stability of Microsoft Intune is good."
"Intune's feature that I have found most valuable is its auto-pilot feature."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Its dashboards are valuable. It is easy to access dashboards and implement policies."
"Payloads, application publishing, and cataloging features are valuable to our customers."
"The most valuable features of 42Gears SureMDM include tracking location and pushing applications."
"The tool's most valuable feature is a remote connection to the devices. You can also push and lock applications. It helps us lock devices for professional use to control which applications can be installed."
"The solution's customer support is good."
"This solution is very dynamic. I can do what I need to do with it."
"I am most excited about a feature that is called User-Initialed Enrollment."
"Patch management and associated policies help us manage and update our fleet's software."
"Automating the refresh of the devices is huge for both sides of the end-user experience."
"Integration with Apple's DEP program and the ability to image systems quickly and efficiently is one of the best features. I use Jamf Pro to push out remote access tools that allow us to help our users with issues that require more "hands-on" than only MDM can provide, which is nice as well."
"Users love that instead of having to wait for tickets to be resolved, they can open an app and run a specific policy."
"From the reviews that we are getting, the feedback from the client, the tool is very good on the Jamf side - especially for the Macs."
"I found that automated enrollment is very powerful because you can bring standardization to the environment."
"It's as easy as procuring the licensing for the apps and then setting it to the volume purchasing back in Jamf."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see some kind of analytics report."
"It would really be helpful to have the option to manage server operating systems as well, like Windows Server, at least. That way, we could scrap the use of SCCM, which requires a lot of on-premises infrastructure."
"It would be better if I could integrate it with my core group policy. I would like to have a group policy in my current environment, which has strict control, but those things are still missing. Although it has maximum compliance and security, it's not available on-premise."
"They need to integrate more with security options."
"Once it's configured it is unobtrusive, but it does take some hands-on to configure and deploy it properly."
"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"It would be better if they can reduce the cost of the license."
"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"The user interface and customization features are not the best and could be improved."
"User creation on Mac must be improved."
"The product is not so convenient to deploy or to configure."
"The dashboards could be improved."
"The solution’s pricing could be made cheaper."
"42Gears SureMDM needs to improve support because it may take around one to two days to receive a revert."
"As a partner, we consider 42Gears to be a unified endpoint management (UEM) solution. So, we should be able to manage users with this particular solution. This is something that is currently not there. It is probably an area for improvement for 42Gears."
"The self Service UI needs some real improvement; they recently revamped the app, but I don't know if those changes have been for the better."
"Every once in a blue moon, we wind up with a rarely-seen superbug that takes support weeks to months to solve."
"There should be an option for exporting the data for reporting purposes so that we can give that to the higher-ups, such as CIO. We should be able to see bar graphs and charts on different data points. It would be great to have a good reporting tool to look at, for example, data points of how many versions of Adobe Acrobat we have in our environment in a bar graph or pie chart. They don't have anything like that. There is an application called Tableau Reader, which does statistics, and you can put a statistical or analytical aspect in there to extract data and share it on a graph or a pie chart. Such a tool would be great."
"It would be nice if Jamf added an onboarding tool integrated into Jamf Connect during the automated DEP enrollment workflow. It would also improve the user experience if Jamf integrated native macOS notifications, with the option to interact within the notification center."
"One feature or improvement that would be awesome is some sort of mobile app from Jamf that can be used to alert admins of custom alerts."
"The solution should offer beta testing for new products."
"The upgrade process of this solutions could be improved. It is not possible to use Jamf Pro to upgrade devices."
"I can only say that I would love to see a more customizable dashboard."
