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.
Systems Engineer at a consultancy with 51-200 employees
The main return was not something of direct cost tracking on my own side, but more on the time saved, the faster response, and the reduced pressure on agents.
SDR and Workflow Automation Specialist at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
I have seen a return on investment, including saved money, saved time, and the requirement of very few resources or employees to implement Sendbird chat.

9.0

Sentiment score
7.0
Sendbird maintains stable, efficient real-time messaging with minor issues, reliable support, and highly rated chatbot performance.

Endpoint Engineer Manager at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
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

Jamf Protect needs better SIEM integration, onboarding, AI, support, UI, documentation, device support, alert management, and pricing.
Sendbird must enhance documentation, stability, pricing, features, analytics, and updates while refining SDKs for better integration across platforms.
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
With AI-driven development happening, I would say include more AI-driven development or include more options on different libraries and languages.
Software Engineer at a financial services firm with 51-200 employees
More flexibility in configuring unread count behavior, along with clearer documentation and debugging tools for these scenarios, would make it easier for developers and QA teams to validate and troubleshoot messaging workflows.
Software Engineer in Test at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
The documentation for integrating with the Flutter framework is lacking detailed information.

Setup Cost

Jamf Protect is costly but justified by features and integration, offering bundled, cost-effective options alongside Jamf Pro.
Enterprise users find Sendbird's pricing high, with various plans and occasional discounts, deterring some from committing before completion.
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
overall it is an expensive product as compared to other peers
Vice President, Technology (Mobile Architecture & Platform Lead) at Playfora
The subscription cost is quite high, which prevents us from subscribing before the project completion and user testing.
Junior Software Developer at Weavers Web Solutions Private Limited
Compared to other chat providers, Sendbird is not that expensive to integrate.
Senior Software Professional at Merkle INC
 

Valuable Features

Jamf Protect enhances macOS security with deep telemetry, real-time alerts, compliance automation, and seamless integration, maintaining efficient performance.
Sendbird delivers scalable chat solutions with real-time messaging, metadata, and seamless integration to enhance user engagement and operations.
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
Using AI tools recently, Jamf Protect has positively impacted our organization because many AI tools have some security holes, so it is helping us to be safe while users are exploring AI tools.
Server Administrator Coordinator at Cairo American College
Features similar to WhatsApp, such as online and offline statuses, message reactions, and replies, add significant value.
Junior Software Developer at Weavers Web Solutions Private Limited
On average, I save two weeks per project compared to building custom chatbots.
Support Engineer at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
Having the full history in one place makes a very big difference because agents can quickly understand what has already happened and continue helping customers without making them repeat themselves.

Featured Reviews

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.

Organized real-time customer chats have improved support efficiency and response handling
One thing I found unique about Sendbird is how smooth the real-time chat feels. It does not feel delayed or clunky. Conversations flow naturally, as though you are talking to someone in real time. If I could improve one thing, I would add more built-in analytics around conversations, such as clearer insights on response times, common issues, and agent performance. That would make it much easier to optimize support without relying on external tools. One improvement I see for Sendbird would be more flexibility in customizing the chat interface, especially around how conversations are displayed for agents. Sometimes, when handling multiple chats, having better layout controls or quick filters would make it much easier to stay organized. I also would appreciate more built-in analytics inside the platform itself, such as clearer breakdowns of response times, chat resolution rates, and common customer issues. Right now, you often need external tools to get that level of insights. Overall, it works very well, but those improvements would make the day-to-day support work much smoother and much more efficient.
