Why we use Jamf Pro
What do you like best about the product?
We rely on Apple's Device Enrollment Program for iOS devices and Jamf has a great solution for automatic enrollment and management. MDM is critical for iOS deployments and Jamf Pro provides all the features we need there. On the Mac side of the house, we specifically rely Jamf Pro for FileVault encryption management across our fleet of computers. We also use many of the other management features for configuration and compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The patch management solution for keeping software up-to-date on the Mac platform is a weak point. We use other tools here to simplify package management and patching. The reporting is helpful, but requires a lot of manual setup and configuration to get just right. It would be nice if there were more built-in or pre-packaged reports to guide you to proactive solutions for issues that are reported with endpoints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide education and business customers with fully managed solutions to deploy, configure, manage, and monitor iOS and Mac devices. Jamf Pro provides the foundation for our management stack, even though we also draw on other commercial and OSS solutions. We have realized significant productivity enhancements by being able to build automated, repeatable, and monitored solutions to common issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think the idea of "one piece of glass" to manage disparate platforms is overrated. I believe it's better to choose the best tool for each platform, and Jamf Pro is the best tool for the Apple platforms.
Jamf Pro has helped our company manage MACs so much better!! I would be lost without it.
What do you like best about the product?
The self service portal is very helpful. The Pre-Stage enrollment helps me setup computers easier, Were able to remote wipe and lock computers which is helpful, The support is AWESOME and fast

Jamf Pro is an amazing tool and software to have in your environment. It's features and uses's are never ending. It's sometimes confusing on how to do something because their is so many ways to do it. Trial and error. Support is very quick at responding and awesome to work with.

Jamf knows Apple ecosystem as no other management solution. And also a important feature is to empowering the end user. That are the benefits of Jamf Pro.

JAMF Pro...Save your Life.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to manage on-boarding, inventory, imaging and support in one platform. One tool set that handles everything we need to do to support a fleet of Mac users. If you put the time into planning, it can save you time in most every respect.
What do you dislike about the product?
The issues that can occur with mobile users that move around a lot, sometimes machines stop reporting with OS updates etc. File my complaint under the general heading of "losing contact with computers." A small hassle for a lot of upside when your fleet is accessible wherever they travel. I also dislike how I got an A for this review, but then when I came back to edit it some more I had to add even more to my review to get the same review grade, very sneaky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cap EX inventory, software distribution (VPP program), iOS in-house applications, rental fleet imaging.
Look no further for Apple Device Management
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to set smart groups and keep an accurate inventory count, App deployment, Imaging, ease of use,
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems as though MacBook Air imaging along with DEP seems to be an issue. I am not sure if this going to be addressed at some point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mobile Device Management is a huge deal. The ability to configure devices and push out applications based on different groups is amazing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

What do you dislike about the product?
Actually the jamf pro website really old style
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Manage screen saver & lock screen setting, & also the system & apps update
Jamf Pro is great and getting better
What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is easy to use, yet extensible and flexible. It makes it easy to manage 10-10,000 devices! Most importantly, Jamf Pro was/is developed with Apple products, and for Apple products. Jamf also doesn't outsource support, it is done in house. Response times when dealing with support have been excellent. This is one of my biggest issues with other vendors. The product is only as good as the service backing it. Jamf is all over it, and they are ready when new iOS features are released by Apple out of the gate
What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest complaint is the documentation, specifically the docs that reference making OS, Java, Apache Tomcat, or MySQL changes. Those pieces of information are often vague, which JAMF says is intentional due to many supported server configurations. I would personally like to see more detailed "best practice" documentation for the 4 major supported OS's: OS X, Ubuntu Server, RHEL, and Windows Server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I image Mac's, manage and update software, and control security settings. I've come to value how well JAMF Pro works for enforcing security policies and restrictions across a wide variety of devices.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Jamf Pro offers one of the best "out of box" experiences in my opinion around Apple device management. I would suggest going through the official training if possible however, and having someone on staff certified depending on your businesses size.
