Jamf Pro has been instrumental in changing how we manage our fleet of systems by making it easier to keep machines up to date and secure.

The UI can be a little clumsy and/or unintuitive.For example, options such as managing Scripts are part of the Settings menu and it takes several clicks to navigate to.

Jamf Pro makes it easy for a small team to handle a growing fleet while making sure we're maintaining required policies and updates across the fleet.
Jamf is the most reliable MDM I've used.

Their Customer Support and the Jamf Nation Community Enable your Success
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ease of reporting, whether for an individual device or groups of devices. Reporting on hardware or software, it doesn't matter. I've recently delved into extended reporting capabilities with extension attributes. This has been a game changer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance issues. We have a large environment and experience session timeouts, as well as working in one screen and having it send us back "home", e.g. creating a policy. Our current production version as of this review is 10.22.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing visibility into our macOS and iOS environment. We are now beginning to focus on zero-touch deployments. Jamf has made this possible, and not just for the technically aficionados.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are a lot of MDM providers out there, and I feel a lot of them probably provide the technical tools for success.
However, they may not provide the the same level customer support.
Jamf's customer success agents are available, intelligent, and willing to tackle any issue you put in front of them. This provides a level of comfort that may not be found elsewhere. I believe they are putting the necessary resources in their people to enable their clients to do more.
One other thing. There is a large online community of helpful, insightful people working through the same issues as you, and willing to share their solutions.

Best tool in your toolbox
What do you like best about the product?
Has helped us automate many of the repetitive tasks to allow our technicians more time to work directly on other matters.
What do you dislike about the product?
Steep learning curve, but completely worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowed us to centralize our workload so that certain tasks aren't being done over and over repeatedly by different people in different areas.
JAMF Pro is the best-of-breed Mac and iOS management software
What do you like best about the product?
The tight integration with new OS releases. The support is very very good— prompt and knowledgable and tenacious about chasing down answers to unusual problems and edge cases. I've used Jamf's support team many times and have always had positive, helpful, and competent support from them. The support team at Jamf is the most valuable part of the company.
What do you dislike about the product?
It’s pricy, but it’s still far less than the cost of another employee at my workplace. JAMF is my other employee and it works harder than I do, which is how it should be. Sometimes there are long-standing bugs in the code that go unresolved for many months, or even years, at a time. I like that Jamf asks for feature requests, but then sometimes I feel like the requests go unanswered or unfilled.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeps my fleet healthy and productive. EA’s allow me to collect amazing info on the state of my fleet and then I can use the flexibility of JAMF Pro to engineer solutions that for my environment. I've recently started to use the MDM functionality of Jamf Pro more, including configuration profiles, PPPC profiles, and features like Webclips. I've also started managing AppleTVs with my JSS.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at the other vendors (Fleetsmith, Addigy, FileWave, etc.), but depending on your organization's needs, you may actually find yourself back with Jamf.
Jamf. The Industry Standard
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Jamf allows me to manage Macs in 39 locations in 16 countries without the need for an extensive staff of technicians.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like Jamf Pro to have more robust reporting features and the ability to create dashboards that can be shared with other teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to manage Macs in a diverse, multinational company with limited resources.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It may seem pricey, but if you should consider Jamf Cloud as your solution if you are going to implement Jamf. Removing the need to maintain infrastructure is worth the cost.
