Find out what your peers are saying about JAMF, Microsoft, Kandji and others in Mobile Device Management (MDM)."This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"The ability to switch between Affinity and non-Affinity enrollment is great."
"At the moment, Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"The Autopilot feature is fantastic. It is a Microsoft product, so it deals best with Microsoft operating systems, but it can integrate with iOS, Mac OS, Linux, and Android."
"Stable solution at a good price."
"The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console."
"One of the best features is Windows Autopilot because if you change any of your devices, whatever security policies and compliance policies that applied can be easily migrated to the new devices. Windows Autopilot gives you that flexibility."
"It's normally able to meet 100% expectations of our customers."
"We have been able to keep our tech department lean and mean, maximizing our efficiency by utilizing Jamf to set up our iPads for us, rather than installing each app one at a time."
"It's as easy as procuring the licensing for the apps and then setting it to the volume purchasing back in Jamf."
"The most valuable features in Jamf Pro are the policies and config profiles, making our life easy to manage many different things in one place."
"Users love that instead of having to wait for tickets to be resolved, they can open an app and run a specific policy."
"Patch management and associated policies help us manage and update our fleet's software."
"Some of the most valuable features for us include remote management, DEP enrollment, and zero-touch deployment."
"There is support for Apple updates from day one. Jamf works closely with Apple, so they are ready to support new updates whenever Apple pushes them."
"The action and trigger is the main thing for us. We like the kind of repetitive script which we can use there."
"It's a very easy plug-and-play solution where you can just enroll the devices and choose the features you want."
"From a new user's perspective, it may be a little overwhelming because there are quite a few things to look at in the console, however, once you are sort of acclimated and are familiar with your core functions, it's fairly simple and straightforward."
"I'm still playing around with it and haven't had any issues with the product yet, but support can definitely be improved."
"Technical support is not that great."
"Regarding mobile devices, Intune is good, but there are other services that I would say are ahead of Intune from an administration and reporting point of view."
"They could also make it easier to use because there are some other products that may be easier to use in terms of the look and feel of the dashboard."
"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."
"The synchronization could be improved."
"They need to integrate more with security options."
"The product is pretty good as-is, but if anything could be improved I would say the UI could perhaps be a bit simpler. A mobile app to complement the web-based version, to perform specific tasks, would be nice to have - a good example of what I mean is the "Pulseway" MDM for Windows, they have a very useful and user-friendly mobile app."
"There needs to be a mass policy change tool."
"I would like to see either a report section or an integration with a new reporting module to allow us to pull real metrics from the system easily."
"For patch management in Jamf, two Smart Groups are required as patch policies cannot be scoped as of now. This is not a major issue, as there is a great workaround by using a wrapped "member of" duplicate Smart Group. However, being able to avoid two Smart Groups for patch management would be nice."
"We had some issues with its integration with other products, such as Intune. There were some issues with the way you have to register your device into Intune."
"If I had to suggest an area of improvement would be the UI. It can be very all over the place and complex."
"We face issues when we do not have a script and have to write a script, we need to create extension attributes."
"An easier way to deploy Full OS upgrades would be a great start."
"Kandji should give open customization."
