Apple Mobility Service Manager at ZONES PVT LTD

Allows users to easily monitor miscellaneous activities occurring in their environments

The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required. It would be good if Jamf Protect could be integrated with Jamf Pro and used as a single solution. There are a couple of improvements where there is a need to change a few things. There are also a couple of things that need to be removed and merged into the main tool, Jamf Pro. The solution's technical team needs to improve because somewhere I felt from my personal experience that unless Jamf's team puts in an effort to understand the requirements of its customers, help can't be provided. The help provided by Jamf's team is on the basis of what they know, so I feel that they need to put a bit of effort into understanding what customers expect from the product.

Central console streamlines patch monitoring and device management effortlessly

WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection is good and easy to set up. I provide an installation file for every client through my domain controller and GPO, and it works properly. We have faced no incidents with viruses or network breaches, and it's easy to monitor patches. I can use remote desktop from the central console. The solution also saves my time because, being the only one handling it, I can monitor all devices easily.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"The behavioral detection is valuable."

"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."

"Jamf Protect's most effective features for threat detection include managing devices and applications, deploying and upgrading the OS, and its overall security features."

"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."

"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."

"The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."

"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."

More Jamf Protect pros

"Both incoming and outgoing traffic is protected."

"The most valuable features of WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection are the clear useful portal and overall company protection."

"WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection is good and easy to set up."

"There is a layer of security to prevent a malicious agent (malware) from interrupting or stopping services, deleting or modifying registry entries or even stopping the antivirus from acting, ensuring that there will be no interruption of protection."

"On the cloud management page, the solution scales up very highly."

"We use the product for detecting network vulnerabilities and for software update purposes."

"F-Secure is useful for keeping user machines up-to-date by pushing out security and critical updates."

"The notifications and patch management features are valuable."

Cons

"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The solution’s stability could be improved."

"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices."

"Beginners need initial training."

"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."

"The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch."

"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."

More Jamf Protect cons

"One problem is that the solution takes too much RAM from the client."

"I would like the part of Hash Analysis by external sources to be improved."

"The program and cloud service management is in English. It's not a problem for me, however, it might be for users who don't speak English or use it regularly."

"Resource consumption is suboptimal and could be improved."

"The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve."

"There is no technical support available in the Middle East."

"But the biggest one for us is patch management because this has been our top priority when looking at alternatives. Every solution needs to have patch management, if that's possible. It would cut costs on our side if that feature were included, so we don't need to pay for two separate pieces of software."

"There could be a dedicated security partner with essential knowledge."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."

"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."

"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."

"I rate the product price as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."

"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."

"If you purchase licenses in bulk the price of the licenses can decrease."

"We pay a yearly licensing fee of about €20 per computer."

"The cost of the solution depends on the size of the company and where the licenses are being ordered from."

"The price is comparable."

"The product has average pricing."
