Jamf for Mac

What do you like best about the product?

I love the speed and power of the Jamf binary, which really stands out to me. The ability to integrate Jamf with our other systems via API is another highlight, as it allows us to automate and customize our tooling to suit our specific business needs. The documentation is thorough, making it easy to either build in-house solutions or find community-built tools we need, ensuring we can move quickly and safely. Also, migrating from on-prem to cloud was rather easy, which was a relief for us.

What do you dislike about the product?

I think the UI around smart group criteria and scoping could really use some improvements. It's quite challenging to see and edit groups and scopes confidently because of the current setup. Specifically, when I'm trying to adjust smart group criteria, I can only add items to the end of the list, not insert them where I actually need them. This means I have to delete and recreate the criteria just to make a simple addition further up, which is a hassle. It would be great if I could insert or drag-and-drop criteria items to reorder them easily.
