Jamf Pro Makes Deploying and Managing iPads a Piece of Cake
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to remotely manage iPad is such a game changer. I can help students learning remotely solve issues without ever seeing the student. With an email or two I can solve so many issues.
I was able to use zero touch for the first time this year and I am in love with it. I had heard great things about it before but zero touch is absolutely the best thing that has happened to deploying iPad. The time I saved with zero touch blew my mind. I cannot wait to use zero touch again!

What do you dislike about the product?
I would love a few more features such as an easier way to use student images for Apple Classroom. I would also like to see a feature like Deep Freeze made available through Jamf Pro.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving end user problems remotely. We pushed out a web clip through our profile to our Student Tech help website. We gave students a way to help themselves since they are learning remote. I am saving my time during the summer with zero touch. It gave me so much time to work on other things.
Jamf consolidates the growing needs of a Mac environment into into their management programs.
What do you like best about the product?
- Remote support for all Apple devices
- Ability to secure MacOS and iOS devices
- Amazing support if issues arise

- Amazing support if issues arise
What do you dislike about the product?
We have only been using the application for the last year, so it has been an overall great product. We haven't had any issues that couldn't be solved by their support team (most of our issues were my team not knowing how to complete a task).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team has been able to revolutionize our setups and support for Apple devices. Through the use of this management software, my team is excited to see what all Jamf has to offer in order to streamline our overall support to our Apple staff and faculty members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to cut down on the time spent preparing/supporting an Apple product in your current fleet, then I'd highly consider Jamf as an option. Our setup time has decreased easy by 50% and our time spent supporting users has dropped because of how Jamf allows my team to provide tools to troubleshoot themselves.
Zero touch mac environment management
What do you like best about the product?
Manage mass number of apple products (Macs, iPad, iPhone) from one single point. It was amazing to deploy security patches, application packages, restrict device features, etc. from one single point. Helps a lot to control device inventory and determine device life.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still learning the software. A lot to learn and implement. It's too early for me to mention any disliking point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Inventory control, package distribution, epo update, OS x update, apps update, restrict device features, etc. Centralized management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend mac admins to try Jamf Pro.
Jamf changed our lives in IT!
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to create groups, smart and static to scope policies and apps to. Granularity that we didn't have before
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that I dislike is that there isn't enough granularity over the config profiles; often changing one setting changes several others.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We no longer have to image machines individually, but can create enrollment profiles. The time saving is immense.
Happiness is a well managed Apple environment
What do you like best about the product?
PreStage Enrollments along with Azure and Intune Integration. We use Azure Active Directory, Multi Factor Authentication, Intune and Autopilot. The Jamf/Azure integration and SSO allows us not only to keep all our inventory on a single pane of glass, but it also enables us with the ability to enforce first-time login password changes which is a big boost in security and user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
Inventory and patch reporting could be better. I personally find data mining to be a bit arduous.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zero-touch deployment is a big demand for end users as well as IT admins. Being able to provide a superior user enrollment experience while providing configuration profiles and applications is big plus for me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider that Apple management is all that Jamf does. This provides a superior focus and greater insight to the future of Apple, and the an advantage when it comes to fulfilling the demands of Apple users.
Jamf makes managing Macs easy!
What do you like best about the product?
Since switching to Jamf, we've been able to more easily manage our labs and devices. It's reliable, easy to use, and has excellent support folks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would prefer to view a list of devices or computers that are in a group or have a certain policy applied to them. The checkboxes/lists are a little difficult to see/manage. More robust search features would be helpful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jamf is making it easier to prevent users putting activation locks on their devices, and makes it a snap to reconfigure returning devices.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Getting started early with Apple volume purchasing is key and saves headaches down the road
Fantastic Tool for Apple Device Management
What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is the gold standard for apple device management. Nothing else really even comes close. They offer zero day support for Apple OS releases, and are constantly innovating to make device management easier for IT admins. The simplicity of managing profiles and integrating with Apple Business Manager is second to none.
What do you dislike about the product?
Jamf is more expensive than many other competitors. Many competitors are half the price or less. There is also a decent learning curve. The jumpstart is very expensive, but well worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jamf allows us to remotely manage our fleet of Apple devices. Buy being cloud based, we had no issues supporting or managing our devices when everyone was remote during COVID-19. We can manage digital signage around our facilities running on Apple TVs from anywhere in the world. The security provided by using Jamf Pro allows us the confidence to not worry about if a device is compliant.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your budget allows it, there is no better alternative. If you don't have a large budget, you may need to look elsewhere. Plan to allow 1-2 weeks for deployment. Make sure you have someone somewhat familiar with managing macOS, iOS, iPadOS, or tvOS devices to assist with management.
2020 was crazy...but life without JAMF is worse
What do you like best about the product?
Dedication to the Mac platform! Dedication to pushing MDM technologies forward
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes the interface is a little cumbersome. and logging is a little rough with understanding what the problem is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
interfacing with scripts we have been able to solve a bunch of different customers' needs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
just keep swimming. sometimes we had problems but we had to keep pushing and get training and ask questions so that we could get exactly what we needed.
