Recommendations to others considering the product:
Trial it. And you will see the value of it.
Not sure what I would do without it.
What do you like best about the product?
It's pretty amazing what jamf does for our district. We have over 9,000 iOS devices, 800 MacOS devices and several TvOS devices and management is easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial time it takes to learn the ins and outs of jamf. The training courses really help for that though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping over 9,000 iOS devices and 800 MacOS devices running smoothly with a team of two dedicated to Apple devices. We just enrolled 700 MacBooks over the past few months with just two of us which couldn't have been done without jamf.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's expensive, but well worth it. Don't know what I would do without it as a team of two managing almost 10,000 Apple devices.
Jamf Pro Review
What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is probably the most recognisable name when it comes to Mac and iPad management. We're mainly iPad based and they always support newly released features from apple. Their 0 day support for new OS releases makes managing iPads very easy. The jamf nation forums and support is also great. The new Jamf Parent app is great as it allows our parents to have some control. Something they've been asking for for quite a few years.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main thing I dislike is not being able to see where a smart group is used or what it is linked to. You have to remember where it is used or go through all your settings. It would be nice to have a reference of each thing that uses that smart group. Fortinet firewall does this very well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have 2:1 and 1:1 iPads across the foundation and Jamf makes it very easy to deploy iPads, apps and settings. Would be impossible to do this manually.
Powerfull and smart - wanna miss it anymore in my daily business
What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is a very powerful and smart MDM Solution. With Extension Attributes and scripts you can form Jamf perfectly into the infrastructure of your company. We used the Jumpstart to get into Jamf and it really helped us understanding how it works.
If you get Problems you can get very qualified help in the Jamf Nation community. One of the best community's i knew and very helpful users.

What do you dislike about the product?
We use Jamf for about 1,5 years from now and im really sorry... no big dislike till now :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We encrypt our whole macOS fleet with the help of Jamf Pro and got a central storage for all the recovery Keys.
This integration has allowed us to minimize the number of manual activities performed by our Level 1 and 2 resources .
What do you like best about the product?
Data and facts in a single source, easy integration with SNow.
What do you dislike about the product?
My Apple Engineers rave about this platform. I can't say they indicate dislikes. From a leadership perspective, the one thing I dislike is the need to have two different solutions, one for our IOS/MAC OS and another for all other operating systems/end point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Device management, software patching, integrates into our zero touch platform for all Mac OS and IOS devices.
Everything you could need to manage Apple products
What do you like best about the product?
If Apple allows you do do it, you can do it with jamf. Some MDMs only allow you do do certain things, but with jamf you know you're getting it all. If you can't do it with jamf, its not possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
The company is growing at an extremely rapid pace right now and with that there are some growing pains. Support is working to improve, but its hard to keep up when adding new staff. There have been a lot of new acquisitions and people shifted from one place to another.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work in education and manage devices for students and staff. We restrict functions on devices due to age, for discipline consequences, etc. We can do this from our desks, which saves time and allows us to be more productive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a very comprehensive MDM; if you're looking for just iOS management it may be overkill. If you're looking for macOS, this is the gold standard.
Powerful Mac Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Extremely powerful software - infinitely useful in terms of mac management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Somewhat clunky GUI, time-consuming to set up and difficult to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing policies for over 100 macs. Able to quickly push out an update, block software installation, change settings, remotely wipe macs instantly.
Jamf Pro Apple Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like to ease of enrolling the iPads into the management system. Setting the naming scheme, applying restrictions and deploying applications is extremely easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike not having a report feature where I can run reports to pull specific information about apps, security, updates, etc. This can be done now using Smart Groups, but that pulls devices that fit the criteria set into a group and the devices can be exported into a text file or CSV file. I would have to create a "report" from that export that is presentable to my supervisors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier management and faster deployment of apps to several iPads simultaneously. Previously our teachers were using iTunes gift cards and the IT department was creating and managing Apple IDs for all grade levels. Eliminating the iTunes gift cards was great for the budget and helped teachers focus more on the content in the apps they requested.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The MDM is worth it. There are also so many hidden gems with JAMF that I was not aware of until I attended JNUC. You can use custom trigger policies for client device configuration, you can set up LDAP, and use JAMF APIs to create your own iOS app.
Great Mac management product
What do you like best about the product?
I believe it is the best Mac/iOS management product available. They offer zero-day support for new MacOS and iOS releases and the DEP/VPP integration is great!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the patch management was a bit more fleshed out. I trust it will begin to be in the next year or two.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize jamf pro for MacOS/iOS inventory, software management, compliance and setup.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use JamfNation! The community is one of the best parts about jamf. People are willing to share how they are using the product and are great resources. Take the time to plan out your policies/profiles. You can save a lot of time by thinking through how to utilize these features best.
