The solution for Apple device management in higher education
What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro gives our users self service options, allowing them to manage their own devices, install their own software, and troubleshoot their own issues easily. It gives us a myriad of information to make business decisions from, and helps greatly with remote troubleshooting and support, especially in the age of covid. We can be confident that all of our machines are up to date and compliant with our policies, and upgrading to new software versions for our fleet is simple for both us in IT as well as our users. The power that comes from being able to automate management of our devices has greatly reduced the time and effort required to support our faculty and staff. Jamf Support is also excellent, and their training documentation, certifications, and user community are invaluable in efficiently managing the service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features that seem basic are lacking or missing, even with feature requests that have a large number of 'votes' by other users. The good thing is that nearly anything is possible with custom bash scripting or package deployment, so we have been able to work around most issues that we've run into. We would also like to see better support for patch management; currently there are a limited number of apps that can be automatically patched and version controlled, so we don't make as much use of this feature as we would like. There are third party solutions for this, but they tend to be pricey and not a good fit for our smaller organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are providing better support through self service, allowing our faculty and staff to manage their own devices and problems more easily than would be possible if we were required to interact with every situation that Jamf covers. Especially now that many people are working remotely, it is infinitely easier for us to deploy software to users through Jamf than to have to host software installers and provide instructions, or to have to manually install software ourselves. We have been able to reduce reliance on support staff greatly, freeing up IT staff to work on more challenging issues with larger organizational benefits.
Gold Standard for Apple MDM
What do you like best about the product?
It's highly customizable and flexible. Support and the community are fantastic with solving problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a decent sized learning curve since it's capable of doing so much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to amplify our IT staff. We're able to manage our entire fleet with far fewer staff than if we didn't have an MDM.

Great MDM With Excellent Support
What do you like best about the product?
I like the more-intuitive design and layout of Jamf Pro compared to other MDMs I've used over the years. Their support is also awesome at getting down to the source issue or at least guiding you through a process.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I'm creating a policy and then configure a script, it completely takes me away from and resets the policy I've been creating, instead of having a simple "back" option. It also doesn't automatically refresh when you configure a script, so you're let looking at a blank screen until you press a key. Also, sometimes the dashboard can be slow to work with or won't show the devices properly in the "Complete" ,"Pending", or "Failed" areas.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to push out packages, updates, and other support options to client's computers has been great, especially with the WFH scenario.
Tracking devices needing to be updated or refreshed has been easy with the search options and smart groups.
Self Service has always been a life-saver by allowing users to complete tasks or update programs, themselves.

Jamf Pro has been pretty great
What do you like best about the product?
Support has been wonderful about helping us diagnose any issues we have and get us a quick workaround or solution and have us back up and running very quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Price tag is pretty high, especially in the K12 edu space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a stable reliable MDM and support team has been a must after we went 1:1. We originally started out with Apple Server/Profile Manager and after repeat issues with it, we swapped to Jamf Pro and haven't looked back.
JAMF Pro JNUC 2020
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of management with the Management Commands.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the pushing out applications to iPads are delayed and occasionally require a device restart. The ability to search multiple devices under the search at one time should be an option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to manage applications that students are able to use is most beneficial.
JAMF Review: The Gold Standard in MDM Solutions
What do you like best about the product?
One of JAMF's standout features is its robust integration capabilities. Whether you're syncing with Active Directory or leveraging Apple's Volume Purchase Program, JAMF makes the process smooth
What do you dislike about the product?
Support is making a comeback, in the past JAMF was growing and support could be some what lacking. They have seemingly addressed this issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security is paramount in today's digital landscape, and JAMF does not disappoint. From ensuring device compliance to enforcing security policies, JAMF gives IT administrators peace of mind.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your research and you will find this is the MDM to rule all others!
Full of feature, but price is high.
What do you like best about the product?
Allows me to push out policies and profiles at any time, before using Jamf, we pushed a "Golden Image" using Deploy Studio, and what the labs got with the image was locked in.
What do you dislike about the product?
Repackaging applications and deploying printers. I have yet to successfully deploy printers for our HP printers because I can never find drivers. I can deploy the printer but students then have to install the driver and they dont have admin rights. Support has tried to help, but Im still having issues. Cost also seems high, and the more Macs\iPads we get the harder the price hits our small district.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Refreshing Labs is simple with Jamf, as well as pushing restrictions and wireless settings. Building lab images used to be a major burden for our techs, taking time and they weren't very comfortable with MacOS. Now we simply push a policy, and they are wiped and get the software we assign to them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is fully of features and if you put enough time and resources toward it, it can improve your management of apple devices.

Why is it when i access a webpage in JAMF ( Ex: Policies) that after accessing information i need when i hit the back arrow it always returns to page 1 of the database and does-not leave it where i left off in policies category. THIS DRIVES ME OUT OF MIND...
