Standardized our Java estate and have reduced licensing costs while maintaining strong support
Azul Zulu's ability to allow us to standardize our Java estate on a single and well-supported platform stands out as one of its best features. This standardization simplifies our compliance audits and ensures all our applications receive timely security updates.Azul Zulu positively impacts our organization by providing a platform that allows us to standardize Java on a well-supported platform. Without the high cost associated with other proprietary vendors, Azul Zulu provides an excellent platform for running our applications.

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.

Pros

"We achieved specific outcomes from using Azul Zulu by reducing our Java licensing and support costs by approximately 70% when compared to our previous Oracle contract."
"We've had no issues with stability."
"I joined this project which had already been underway for approximately six months, and in two months, I refactored the whole project and wrote it, and it is functional."
"The quick updates are really good. If a new OS update drops today, I'll have the Jamf Protect update within a few hours. It's also compatible with all Mac OS versions, and there's zero lag or performance impact."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
"Jamf Protect has had a very positive impact on my organization; it has improved my visibility into endpoint activity across my macOS fleet, strengthened my security detection capabilities, and reduced the time required to investigate and respond to security incidents."
"If some other organization is using Jamf Pro, they should definitely go for Jamf Protect, as that will streamline many things for them."
"Jamf Protect impacts my organization positively by creating an ecosystem that delivers a massive shift in both risk reduction and operational speed."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
 

Cons

"It needs a better update daemon. At this time the process is manual and could be an issue on multiple desktop deployments."
"I think Azul Zulu can be improved by always thinking about productivity, as most languages tend to evolve in that direction."
"Improvements for Azul Zulu could include more automated tools for unused code visibility integrated directly into the standard portal to help further optimize our cloud footprints."
"Jamf Protect can be improved by addressing the steep learning curve for the custom analytics engine."
"Jamf Protect can be improved because iOS and iPad protection is still limited compared to macOS coverage."
"Beginners need initial training."
"Overall, Jamf Protect is a strong product, but there are a few areas where it could be improved."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"To improve Jamf Protect, I suggest enhancing the end user onboarding user experience, expanding out-of-the-box support for additional SIEMs, and noting that the user interface takes some getting used to."
"Regarding improvements for Jamf Protect, I receive the warnings related to insecure website accesses through mail at a later stage, so 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."
"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
