Systems Engineer Iii Apple Devices (Jamf Engineering) at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
Unified sign-on has simplified password management and now secures our mobile workforce
The ability to have a single password for the local device and the same password for the IDP is part of our security requirements. Jamf Connect integrates with multi-factor authentication from any IDP and facilitates initial device enrollment. It ensures that when a new user sets up the device, they sign in with their IDP username and password, which then creates the profile on the device. Furthermore, Jamf Connect is now integrated into Jamf Self Service Plus, providing a single dashboard for user password management and allowing users to sync and change their passwords. Additionally, Jamf Connect enhances security by offering two-factor authentication and permitting users to manage or seek help through support features directly within the app.

Optimizing digital presence with customizable design and seamless integration
The main benefits that Liferay Digital Experience Platform brings to the table are numerous. First is rapid application development and many features. Features such as content management and document management make your life easy; workflow management is also present. Workflow can be designed and derived. Form development and everything is very smooth and easy to deliver to the end customer, and you can find many features in one box. You have blogs, wikis, and everything with out-of-box functionality. My experience with actionable insights is positive; they help in refining content strategies. The content creation is helpful. For external content creation, I use headless CMS APIs for Liferay Digital Experience Platform, and headless APIs for content creation are also available. My thoughts on the integration capabilities are that integration is seamless. You have headless APIs where you can integrate seamlessly with any other application such as LDAP or SSO, or you can also integrate with different external systems. You have an SAP connector; everything is available. Liferay Digital Experience Platform's open source flexibility has helped in customizing functionalities for the specific needs of my customers as it is a highly flexible application that can be optimized. My advice for other organizations considering Liferay Digital Experience Platform is that if it's available, we need to improve on the performance, which is currently what we are seeing. Otherwise, earlier Service Builder was acceptable. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Liferay Digital Experience Platform a 9.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Jamf Connect allowed us to fully customize everything, offering a branded way to change passwords and manage integration with Entra instead of LDAP."
"Jamf Connect has quite a nice interface, and the password synchronization and SSO elements are particularly good."
"The most valuable feature is the synchronization of passwords with a local password, which works well."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature is ease of access. It's convenient to do things like resetting passwords. Previously, users were bound to their domain. We had to bind the user to the domain and log them in through the AD. Now, using Jamf Connect, we don't face any of these challenges. Resetting passwords is hassle-free so we can regularly rotate passwords according to best practices."
"For those kinds of users, it is an awesome solution because it syncs their password across the devices they are using, which was not the case previously."
"Jamf Connect is a pretty simple and straightforward tool overall."
"It is easy to integrate into any existing IT workflow."
"As of now, the technology is up-to-date and fulfills all essential requirements."
"We like Likeray because it's a secure platform."
"For me, the most important features are scalability, architecture, the fact that it's Java-based, includes a CMS, and provides audience targeting tools."
"I usually see this platform as a Swiss Army Knife for building new features."
"All the portlets and widgets are plugins, which provides flexibility to add or modify in multiple ways."
"I think that it could be interesting to expand the eCommerce capabilities to the B2C sector."
"If your company has an overall future for growth, then Liferay is a good choice as it is an enterprise solution."
"It has helped our client to quickly set up websites for their external clients."
 

Cons

"The solution's UI could be more user-friendly for the setup process."
"We've had some issues when users restart their devices because the device asks for credentials afterward. Jamf Connect asks for a username, password, and MFA."
"I see a potential area of improvement for Jamf Connect from the commercial side, not from the technical side, because technically we do not have any issues."
"The solution needs to improve its licensing."
"One area of Jamf Connect that I think could be improved is the recent merger with Self Service Plus, which is a solution we did not want."
"There is room for improvement with Jamf Connect in reducing its cost and overcoming limitations during pre-stage enrollment, which prevent it from creating MDM-capable users."
"Jamf's support could be improved."
"Jamf Connect is beginning to implement Multi-Factor Authentication for offline authentication, but the setup documentation is insufficient."
"I would like to see it require fewer configurations from the properties file, and provide more GUI options to configure changes."
"It lacks true multi-tenant support."
"Liferay requires more room to provide ease of use for the content contributors."
"The documentation could be better."
"Documentation for the newly launched version is not up to the mark."
"There are a lot of possibilities for improvement in several areas."
"Although it has been improving, I cannot shake the feeling that it was released too early."
"The documentation provided needs to be more detailed. It's sometimes hard to develop things because the documentation is so sparse."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is good."
"Jamf Connect has a yearly licensing cost, which is expensive."
"The pricing model could be improved, especially considering the availability of alternative MDM solutions like Kandji, which offers similar features for free or at a lower cost."
"It's relatively inexpensive."
"I rate the cost as three out of ten, with ten being the highest."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"The pricing is definitely on the higher side."
"We pay 2 dollars per device monthly. For the plus version, you have to pay 4 dollars per month. I think the product will give discounts based on the number of users and devices."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive. What Liferay Digital Experience Platform offers at its current price can be considered something that is worth the money."
"It's an open-source structure. Other costs are for professional services to integrate Liferay to other existing systems."
"Licensing costs can be very expensive."
"Their pricing model should be modified to include per user options instead of just servers/cores, etc."
"It is a bit expensive."
