Review summaries and opinions

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

ROI

Sentiment score
4.3
Amplitude enhances targeting and personalization, saving time and effort, but higher pricing requires careful consideration for ROI.
Sentiment score
5.9
Jamf Protect enhances SOC efficiency, saves time, reduces breach costs, and quickly addresses malware, eliminating third-party software needs.
I have seen a return on investment with Amplitude, saving about 120 man hours per month for a specific report that needs to be created.

It has saved us a lot of time since I can see the analysis as quickly as possible in the dashboard, resulting in significant time and money saved.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Analysts can quickly access the endpoint telemetry and contextual information without manually gathering data from multiple sources.
Lead Product Security Architect at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
If you imagine you have 1,000 computers to protect, if any harm happened to these 1,000 computers, that is an ROI because it would damage our assets, affect our environment, and impact the budget as well.
Server Administrator Coordinator at Cairo American College
I have seen a return on investment because, as I mentioned before, when I receive an alert, Jamf Protect works to solve the alert.

I did not notice any delays or issues with Amplitude's performance and speed when handling large datasets.
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
In the alpha phase, we found out that it was taking twenty to thirty percent of CPU usage, and in some of the Macs, it was taking even more than seventy percent of CPU usage.

The endpoint agent has generally performed well without causing noticeable impact on system performance, which is important from both a security and end-user perspective.

Room For Improvement

Users desire improved report setup, visualization, query building, tagging, data retention, support, and feature discovery for enhanced analytics.
Jamf Protect should enhance SIEM integrations, automatic remediation, and expand AI capabilities while improving pricing and OS coverage beyond macOS.
Support could be improved. Sometimes I need to create a ticket and communicate with one of their advisors via email.
Data Science Engineer at BebopBee, Inc.
Longer form time series analysis seems nearly impossible to do on this platform.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
Reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful.
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
There is no Windows or Android support, so expanding to Windows on that side would be beneficial.
Systems & Cloud Architect at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
If they could be flagged the moment I visit them, that would be great because I would know exactly which website was causing the warnings.
Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
Expanding out-of-the-box support for additional SIEMs.
Project Manager at Wells Fargo
 

Setup Cost

Amplitude's high pricing and complex billing for larger data volumes cause challenges and lengthy negotiations for users.
Jamf Protect's pricing is high, but efficient deployment and built-in features offer value compared to similar EDR solutions.
Pricing is often egregiously high, and the company has changed billing models on us once already.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
We are using a free version and would upgrade to a paid version if it were cheaper.
CEO at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Amplitude's pricing is good and not overpriced; it is fair for the amount of data we are extracting and the analysis we perform.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Jamf Protect includes a number of features that other EDR solutions charge additional fees for, such as compliance and device control.
Project Manager at Wells Fargo
The setup cost is low, depending on whether you deploy it via Jamf distributor or automatically.
Systems & Cloud Architect at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
There's no increase, but I still know the price is high, and it's worth the investment.
Server Administrator Coordinator at Cairo American College
 

Valuable Features

Amplitude excels in segmentation, cohort analysis, and integration, enhancing data-driven decision-making and user experience optimization.
Jamf Protect offers comprehensive endpoint security with system telemetry, threat detection, real-time updates, and SIEM tool integration.
Based on Amplitude charts and outcomes, our product team takes decisions, so it has improved decision-making.
Data Science Engineer at BebopBee, Inc.
Amplitude has positively impacted my organization as it allows us to make decisions based on data and iterate faster.
CEO at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Collaboration was a significant part. What improves collaboration is the self-serve functionality, which was a big deal for PMs to have access to just that data and also the base layer of how that data is structured, which connects to clicks that every report refers to.
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
I assess Jamf Protect's endpoint telemetry data as enhancing our threat detection process a lot because without Jamf Protect, we would be unsafe at all.
Server Administrator Coordinator at Cairo American College
The behavior-based detection is particularly valuable because it focuses on suspicious activities rather than relying solely on malware signatures.
Lead Product Security Architect at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
I can think of having a general sense that Jamf Protect makes me and my team feel more secure because I have not noticed or seen any security-related breaches with me or with any of my other colleagues.
Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees

Featured Reviews

Saurav Bhattacharjee - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
Empowers teams to build visualization-rich reports and make faster decisions using historical user behavior data
I think areas for Amplitude's improvement include data retention. The maximum data I have worked with, the clickstream data on Amplitude, is two years, whereas we rely on Tableau for historical data of at least two years. I am not sure whether it was my organization paying for lower retention or not, but having historical data would take away the reliance on Tableau. Secondly, reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful. Lastly, a more focused approach on error logs is necessary. I have found that, at least with Intuit, we used Splunk more for error logs than Amplitude. Although Amplitude had the capability, developers seemed to prefer Splunk, so if that could be improved, it would be good.
Nick Rudman - PeerSpot reviewer
Project Manager at Wells Fargo
Security platform has reduced malware risk and has strengthened compliance for macOS endpoints
Jamf Protect provides multiple levels of telemetry collection, allowing me to select how sensitive I want to be on event triggers. Jamf Protect allows me to monitor against specific threat categories aligned to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. In addition to protection, I utilize Jamf Protect to monitor our endpoint compliance with the CIS critical security control baseline. If the environment is predominantly Apple based, Jamf Protect is a strong solution for providing EDR capabilities to endpoints. The detection capabilities are on par with other leading EDR tools, and it integrates well with Jamf MDM. The compliance telemetry, log forwarding, and USB device management included as part of Jamf Protect provide a good return on investment. Jamf Protect has had a positive impact on my organization, as it has been one of the best tools that protects against malware. It offers better detection of malware, reducing downtime and risk to our network by approximately 30 to 50 percent. Implementing it is straightforward, although there can be a steep learning curve in general, especially for less technical users. The competitive pricing included in the business package is great, and compliance with our security standards has been maintained.
