Find out what your peers are saying about Zscaler, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco and others in ZTNA as a Service."Jamf Connect is a pretty simple and straightforward tool overall."
"Jamf Connect allows for easy and seamless joining of Mac devices to Azure AD, eliminating the need for third-party involvement or support engineer assistance."
"Jamf Connect is an identity provider, and once you log in, you will have all the device's access."
"It's connection with Azure is the most valuable. It is easy to deploy and connect."
"The tool supports different types of authentication. It also integrates seamlessly if you are using other Jamf products."
"The most valuable feature is the synchronization of passwords with a local password, which works well."
"I would rate the product's scalability an eight out of ten."
"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."
"It's really easy to access."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"The ability to switch between Affinity and non-Affinity enrollment is great."
"The device profiling which uses the official Outlook email enabled us to control the screenshot feature and prevent copying outside of the organization's application."
"Based on my experience, I find Intune very flexible for managing Windows devices. We can use scripting, and we can make use of the self-service portal or the company portal to publish some of the applications for Windows."
"Mobile device management is most valuable."
"The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance."
"The solution is scalable. We currently have tens of thousands of users within our organization using the solution."
"Jamf Connect is beginning to implement Multi-Factor Authentication for offline authentication, but the setup documentation is insufficient."
"The solution needs to improve its licensing."
"The solution's UI could be more user-friendly for the setup process."
"The logs are an area with a shortcoming."
"The configuration could be faster."
"We have faced issues with the product's configuration. If we use the tool with other business manager solutions, then there is the issue of naming conventions. The tool needs to be careful with newer updates so that it doesn't break any of the existing configurations."
"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."
"Overall, there is a lack of consistent experience sometimes with some of their features."
"The solution can have some compliance problems in general and the end-point user can bypass easily the company policies in Intune."
"The reporting needs to be a bit more interactive."
"A new Intune feature allows application packaging, but it incurs additional licensing costs for a significant number of applications."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"Intune's reporting and logging could be improved. When troubleshooting, it's difficult to collect the logs and determine what's happening. If I want to filter out the compliant devices, I can see it from the logs, but I would like the option to drill down further."
"There are a lot of small use cases where we realized that some technical solution was missing in Microsoft in comparison to other products. For example, it lacks something similar to sensing or location-based rules and configurations."
"It just doesn't handle software updates well at all by itself. You need to be a scripting wizard to make those happen properly, or you use third-party tools. The Windows feature updates are very difficult to implement. I would like to see a proprietary built-in remote control tool. I know that they have Team Viewer integrated, but it is not seamless. It would be nice if they had a seamless remote desktop capability directly from the Intune console."
"I would like the ability to install the agent on devices from suppliers, which would enable us to implement a zero-trust strategy for guest devices."
