Awesome for Enterprise

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the coverage that Jamf brings to the table out of the box, but even more so then what come out of the box I love the customization factor. The ability to use my imagination to meet the needs of the customer is key!
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of multitenancy support.
Lack of built in reporting out of the box.
Lack of a robust hireachy structure. Top level > level 2 > level 3 > etc ...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping customers get to a modern management strategry and methodology for their Apple fleet in a way that is easily managable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When it comes to an all in one solution for Mac managment Jamf Pro is still the best there is. Other solution claim that they can do macOS management but they are still not quite on par. If you want the basics then go with the other solution, but if you need to perform tasks over and above the canned solutions then go with Jamf hands down.

Jamf Pro for global, all macOS user base, company.

  • August 20, 2020

What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the easy method for creating policies and the day one support for Apple updates mostly. It's is also very helpful to have multiple levels of permissions across the system.
What do you dislike about the product?
As with any system there are sometimes things that need to be fixed when big updates are made. Some of that is on Apple too . Actually Jamf used to have a harder time making support techs available but they have sincxe fixed that and are very responsive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staff are positioned globally so beinng able to push out updates is important as well as managing security on scale. Self Service is also VERY helpful to cut down on work orders.

JAMF PRO is the BEST macOS management tool out there

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity of the platform as well as the easy navigation through things and settings. I love the many options and features you can perform on a device from the easy one as renaming the name to more complex like lock down configuration and access.
I have been using JAMF Pro since 2016 and I dont think there is a better tool out there to manage Apple devices. I have used a different tool before JAMF, it was a constant struggle. I am so glad I was able to get my company to purchase JAMF.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike to be honest, but there is a minor annoying little thing that I bet JAMF could perhaps improve on, and that is the go-back action. When you are in a policy or device and press the go-back arrow, it scrools you all the way back to the top instead of keeping you on the section from where the device or policy was selected....it's a bit frustrating sometimes to keep on scrolling constantly up and down.
I would love to see improvement on that soon :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Securing company assests and making sure we meet compliance and restrct access only to certain Apps and feature for authorized users only.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I generally look at the following needs when try pick new tool: Meet the needs and requirements (meaning make sure it can do what we want it to do), Easy to use/understand, Scalable and Cost.

MDM Made Easy!

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Jamf has made it possible for our institution to be able to have a real handle on MDM in our environment. I am the one apple guy in our shop, Jamf has made it possible for those who do not have expierience with Apple products to be able to deploy, manage, and keep up with our devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since moving to our cloud instance of Jamf, I have not seen any downsides. If there was 1 complaint, I would say that it seems my browsers time me out while I'm working in the instance. Not a big deal. Also sometimes logging in with SSO, I get errors so I need to log out of my SSO in my browser, then go back and log into Jamf, but that is probably a problem on Microsoft side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a way to manage all our devices with limited staff. Once Jamf is set up, you are ready to rock n roll.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to be able to manage your devices fully and easily, look no further than Jamf Pro!

We've had Jamf for a 8-10 years. Overall, the experience has been good.

Feature Request non-implementation - especially FRs that have been in the list for years.

MDMnM's

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It takes a while to get used to the interplay of all the parts, but once it's orchestrated the pieces all serve to streamline workflows for several of our units and, most importantly, enhance our user experience - all while keeping security happy! Like a delicious bag of chocolates...
What do you dislike about the product?
That complexity with how everything works together can get in your head sometimes, which can be distracting. It can also make documentation and KT a little more complex. Still better than any other Mac MDM!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working to get zero-touch deployments while implementing the CIS guidance for security and enabling our users with the software they need without manual intervention. Our fleet is too large to touch every one, Jamf solves that problem.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure A(S/B)M is set up and working for ADE!

Still the best Mac and iOS management solution

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Jamf is still the number one Apple management solution, I'll admit, i've looked at others, from WorkSpace One, to inTune to Fleetsmith, etc. All of them lack the full functionality I require to do my job as a Mac Enigneer/Admin. The jamf binary is a powerful tool that extends the functionality of the product well past standard MDM solutions and enables me to script, use native policies, etc. If we had to rely on config profiles only, we would fail. its the one-two punch of MDM and Jamf Binary that enable me to fully and successfully manage our 3000 strong Mac fleet.
What do you dislike about the product?
I used to say that jamf had the best support and service, however I can't say that anymore. over the last year, I had many interactions with them where the response is, "that's a known issue and we can't do anything about it", or "We don't know what is going on, we will have to get back to you." and sometimes that takes days for them to get back with you. I really hope Jamf brings back the wold class, highly trained expert support they used to have as I truly miss it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest and most recent problem i've solved with Jamf is the remote work situation as a result of Covid-19. When we decided to go full remote, the company hadn't moved to zero touch provisioning. I managed to get budget for Jamf Connect and architected a full zero touch deployment solution for our entire fleet. With the ability to do initial authentications off network and no VPN required, we can now drop ship a brand new, unprovisioned mac to an end-user. They get the 'out of box' experience and the device self provisions using Jamf Pro, Jamf Connect and Apple Automated Enrollment (formerly DEP) . just 20 minutes after taking it out of the box, an end user is up and running without IT ever touching the computer. its been a huge life saver!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Despite it's shortcomings, Jamf Pro is still the best Apple management platform, no other platform can do everything Jamf Pro does in one package. I would still recommend it. Be prepared for some hiccups in support as it hasn't been the best lately. Hopefully they can sort that out and get things back to where they were before. Also TEST, TEST and RETEST every new version of jamf before putting it production.

Jamf Pro is fantastic!

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease and simplicity to deploy policies, profiles and manage our Mac endpoints makes Jamf incredibly valuable to our organization. The time it takes from downloading an app package, uploading it to our distro, creating a policy and then deploying that app to our users is so fast; we could easily do all of that within 15 minutes. Also, the refresh time for configuration profiles is pretty much instant! If an end user calls with an issue we can tweak a setting and have them test again right away. Its just a fantastic product!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was better patch management options available without having to look to a 3rd party. For example, I would like to see the Office365 in there instead of each individual app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Jamf for end to end management of our Mac endpoints. We have found that we can manage what our users have access to natively on the Mac and provide the tools they need for their roles via Self-Service policies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Enjoy the ease of managing your Mac fleet!

iPads are a breeze with jamf|PRO

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Jamf|PRO has a clean look, easy to use and in general just a pleasure to work with. Sometimes developers forget people use their product and don't always think of ease of use. I can train and get new users up and running with little training.
Self-service is a great way to get apps to users.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't always find support to be the most helpful. After using the product for several years, if I have a problem please don't give me "basic support" when I call. I usually end up getting escalated. Couldn't I just default to a higher level initially? Good once you get high enough up but initial is lacking.
We do run into some quirky issues:
If you use sites DON'T EVER select all when importing classes. MAJOR issue.
I would say in general don't select all. You may have searched and have one or two results in front of you, but when you select all it grabs EVERYTHING.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have just over 3500 iPads in our district I can't imagine doing it any other way. I evaluated many of the competitors but always shake my head and say "It just isn't jamf"
