Jamf has many solutions and using the polices are very powerful.

One feature which stands out is the ability to manage the devices all in one console

What is our primary use case?

To manage our ever growing Apple computers and mobile devices from things like device rollout, to apps and software distribution and inventory management and collections. We are a K-12 school with three campuses of over 500 students and over 400 staffs.

How has it helped my organization?

Rolling out devices has never been easier, Jamf helps minimise the workload on our IT department. Managing a large number of devices requires a lot of manpower and Jamf helps reduce that. Zero-touch rollout at its best.

What is most valuable?

I think the question should be what features have you not found valuable, as all features are useful but if I have to choose the one that stands out for us, it is the ability to manage the devices all in one console so to say.

What needs improvement?

More software titles in the patch management updates, this will help reduce creating packages for software updates.

For how long have I used the solution?

Three to five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

very good, very stable and when things go wrong its always resolved in a good time manner

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

no comment on this.

How are customer service and technical support?

awesome technical support, not an issue with the software they can't fix or resolve. 

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

previous solution was manual control, meaning we have to setup individual devices one by one. Not ideal.

How was the initial setup?

straight forward no complex at all.

What about the implementation team?

IN-House for us.

What was our ROI?

no investment, just need to be done in our organisation.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

If you can afford to go cloud services rather than on premises install go for it, it makes life easier when JAMF handles the physical server and JAMF Pro updates.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

yeah we did and find nothing compared to what JAMF Pro can do.

What other advice do I have?

Give doing what you're doing. It works.

Being able to access the Mac remotely and pull information from it along with sending remote commands to it is valuable

What is our primary use case?

We are using Jamf Pro to manage our Mac environment.

How has it helped my organization?

I'm now starting to package up software to deploy to our Macs remotely. This eliminates the need for manual installations.

What is most valuable?

  • Remote commands
  • Being able to access the Mac remotely and pull information from it along with sending remote commands to it.

What needs improvement?

I would love to see a way to screen share to a Mac using the Jamf Pro web interface instead of Jamf Remote.

For how long have I used the solution?

Less than one year.

I really love the remote commands

What is our primary use case?

Education.

How has it helped my organization?

It helps manage the iPads in a more streamlined way.

What is most valuable?

I really love the remote commands. It is a time saver. I also enjoy the self-service app. That way, not all apps have to be installed if the teacher chooses otherwise.

What needs improvement?

I'd like to see better reporting features.

For how long have I used the solution?

One to three years.

It provides an easier way to deploy apps to classroom devices

What is our primary use case?

Deployment and management of classroom iPads.

How has it helped my organization?

It provides an easier way to deploy apps to classroom devices. App requests are now made through a form, instead of giving teachers an iTunes gift card, and this has helped teachers be more conscious when reviewing apps, which has been better on the budget. 

What is most valuable?

Lost mode, remote shutdown, and remote wipe.

What needs improvement?

I would like to see a separate reports area where an actual report is compiled and able to be printed. Currently, you have to create a Smart Group and set criteria to compile an exportable list (txt or csv) of devices that match the set criteria. A report function would eliminate having to create a formal report yourself with the exported data. 

For how long have I used the solution?

Three to five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Very reliable. I haven't had any issues. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

JAMF already offers a wide variety of tools for the IT industry. I work in K-12 and am excited to see what they will offer with the new acquisition of ZuluDesk.  

How are customer service and technical support?

Customer service and support are superb. Support responses are always timely and that is appreciated when needing an immediate solution.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

No

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was foreign as we were new to MDM systems, but support walked us through setup and provided training. 

What about the implementation team?

We directly contacted with a sales rep at JAMF. 

What was our ROI?

Reduction in manpower needed to manage hundreds of devices for a three-person team.  

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

For the number of management tools you have available and the ease of deployment, I believe the cost is worth it.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

No

What other advice do I have?

Customer service and support are superb. Support responses are always timely and that is appreciated when needing an immediate solution.

An easy to use yet powerful tool

What is our primary use case?

We use Jamf Pro in a production environment to manage around 200 Apple devices.

How has it helped my organization?

Jamf Pro allowed us to effectively manage the employees' devices, reduce support, improve security, but most of all keep a small IT/support team even when our company grew rapidly, and we doubled the number of managed devices.

What is most valuable?

  • Remote management
  • Enrollment
  • Packages installation. 

These features are valuable because they were the most time consuming before we used an MDM.

What needs improvement?

Jamf Pro does everything it is supposed to well. The user interface received a huge overhaul with version 10, and there are still some parts that could be improved, but it is still an easy to use yet powerful tool.

For how long have I used the solution?

Three to five years.

Self-service allows for users to solve their own issues without needing to contact the help desk

What is our primary use case?

I use this software in my daily job to manage all of the Apple devices on the college campus.

How has it helped my organization?

It has made me much more efficient in my job by reducing the time needed to spend on tasks.

What is most valuable?

Self-service allows for users to solve their own issues without needing to contact the help desk.

What needs improvement?

I would love to see GSX (Apple Global Service Exchange) integration populate purchasing data during the enrollment process. Currently, data does not populate during enrollment of a device. I would prefer the ability to have this data pull automatically if set up via prestige enrollments

For how long have I used the solution?

One to three years.

Restrictions are useful and effective

What is our primary use case?

  • We use a one-to-one iPad program in our schools.
  • We manage 1000 devices.
  • We configured different profiles for each grade groups, and we can easily manage them.
  • Especially for restrictions, to manage applications, books and web clips, to push notifications.

How has it helped my organization?

First, we used another MDM solution, but we haven't been satisfied. We researched alternatives and found Jamf Pro. Really we are so happy now. 

What is most valuable?

Restrictions. It is so useful and effective.

What needs improvement?

Screen time setup is so required. I want to set time up for screen times for categories. I should be able to choose time and set a password.

For how long have I used the solution?

Three to five years.
