Centralized classroom management has created secure, focused digital learning with zero-touch updates
Jamf School is so easy to use. Perhaps because I have been in the technology field for so long, it did not take a lot of training, and the training that Jamf does is amazing. The documentation and behind-the-scenes support is great. There is not really much I would say I would want to see improved. If I had to think of even a small area where Jamf School could be improved, I think some of our more experienced users that know how to do custom scripting would appreciate it because we do have techs that also use Jamf Pro that get to that custom scripting, and sometimes in Jamf School, there is not really that same layer. If there was something they could do a little bit more to allow those that do have the capabilities to do some of that, that might be useful. It is also that Jamf School is mostly an Apple-first platform, but as our campuses are growing and more Chromebooks are becoming available, it would be nice if Jamf School was as good with the other platforms versus just Apple products. Regarding app requests within Jamf School, I would appreciate it if there was something in there that would make it easier for the teachers to request apps more effortlessly. Instead of back-and-forth emails, if there was a direct feature for a teacher's app request, it would help. We have not really used that very much. Teachers can browse it, and maybe we are just not using it to the greatest ability, but as long as that app request feature was very easy for teachers to use, we would get more app requests quickly instead of them having to create help tickets.

Crowdsourced knowledge has grown into a trusted customer hub and now supports richer adoption journeys
One inconvenience is that because we are crowdsourced, we have hundreds of contributors every year, with most people only submitting one article, maybe two, so it does not make sense to pay for licenses for all of those people. This leads to some intermediary manual copy-paste processes because we just cannot have everybody working in the system itself, making it a little bit problematic for maintaining a source of truth. The main issues with NICE CXone are the lack of ability to integrate with some internal things that we want to do; it has to do with the way the system is designed, which is complex. We wanted to integrate with our internal system for instant translations, and we were not able to do that, along with a couple of other things that illustrate that it is kind of an isolated system to itself, making it pretty hard to tap into and grow even further. There are a couple of little issues with reporting that have not been very good, but really, the system is very functional.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The overall usage is the most valuable, and it's a clear upgrade from our previous system."
"Jamf School has achieved 70 to 90% time savings through automated enrollment and Wi-Fi certificates, which represents 90% less time on provisioning and ongoing device management."
"Many features of Jamf School, including automated device enrollment, have helped us manage multiple devices."
"The most valuable features of Jamf School are exceptional, as it is amazing to manage the entire iPad fleet while pushing applications and controlling student safety, which is a concern we take seriously."
"Jamf School has positively impacted my organization by reducing the hands-on touch of all the devices in all the classrooms, allowing our teachers to do more instruction, keeping students safe and focused, and giving them a more efficient learning space with exactly the educational apps they need when they need them."
"It was straightforward to initially deploy it."
"Jamf School has positively impacted my organization by making students' lives easier, enhancing their learning progress with the apps they need when they need them, and making teachers' lives easier by allowing them to control and manage iPads within the classroom, which has a great impact on the academic level."
"The solution protects all our Apple products like iPads and MacBooks."
"NICE CXone was a good initial platform because it helped us from a bare-bones patient outreach standpoint, but we did not get the support we needed, and the user interface was very limited regarding what we could do with it."
"It's easier as a supervisor to do your job more efficiently. You can have multiple things open at once to watch everything, being able to take one look at a page and see everything you need rather then having to flip through multiple programs. This is such a time saver. I get a lot more done in my day due to being able to keep my opened programs down to a minimum."
"The system is very flexible and powerful, especially for organizations wanting to control their environment."
"Converting our PDFs to MindTouch is like adding a huge new feature to our software product line and it has, so far, had a great approval rate amongst our clients."
"NICE CXone allows agents to request time off and trade schedules with other people, access training and coaching, and play games to help improve their performance, functioning as a good one-stop shop where they can input their preferred hours and manage their schedules, rather than having to go to multiple places for professional development."
"MindTouch seemed to deliver the complete package, and we've not looked back."
"The only thing I liked about this was the fact that you can create an online help system where information changes dynamically."
"We are able to see the calls in queue and able to see if someone is available or not."
 

Cons

"The product must improve its price."
"Having everything centralized would be a preferable update."
"There is room for improvement with the security aspects, like scripting."
"My only concern with the direct customer support is that it is only by email, and the email can take up to two days, meaning sometimes in emergencies, you need a quick response."
"If you start the system update in Jamf School, you cannot stop it."
"If I had to think of even a small area where Jamf School could be improved, I think some of our more experienced users that know how to do custom scripting would appreciate it because we do have techs that also use Jamf Pro that get to that custom scripting, and sometimes in Jamf School, there is not really that same layer."
"Jamf Safe Internet also needs some improvement because it is very technical."
"It could improve the quality of calls."
"I would like to see inView be a built-in feature of CXone rather than a separate platform, but everything else is terrific."
"Occasionally, the system runs slow and will kick us out of Max, which then has to be restarted, and can cause issues as our call center deals with time sensitive phone calls."
"Compared to challengers such as Zoom, which seem more cost-effective, NICE CXone's suite of products is very modular, so as they provide new services, you have to add to your existing package and this balloons your costs since there's an additional license needed to use the new tools."
"There are times when the data does not load and you have to keep hitting refresh. More colors and different layouts should be included in the next release."
"It is a hassle, if you are busy and caught up with something, that it will log you out."
"The development tools in NICE CXone could be better, as there are some pain points."
"I think that there is a bit of a delay in the accuracy and reliability of the output I see in NICE CXone, as I mentioned before."
