The benefit of JAMF management
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that the use of JAMF pro is easy and straight forward especially with the installation of applications and the configuration capabilities using scripts to make app deployment seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish JAMF can design a process in which they could in some fashion items about of OSX to have the ability to do full mobile management for all platforms. You don't need to have the ability to fully manage but just report and push minor configuration and security updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to solve alot of our Zero touch deployment for external and remote OSX users. It gives us the ability to manage systems from afar and provide zero day releases keeping everything up to date.
Also ZTE with iOS devices this years has been his sent. We are able to associate our top vendors we procure with DEP abilities.

iPad Easy Management
What do you like best about the product?
That JAMF takes the pressure off managing iPads for our school.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was the cost but now with a pricing through our area technology group that has been solved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use JAMF in Education. It has helped for locating devices. Also, the self-service is great for letting the students get the apps that they need without the distriaction on the app store.
Love Jamf Pro!
What do you like best about the product?
It’s easilu the most mature MDM, and they do their best to keep up to date with the latest Apple product releases
What do you dislike about the product?
At times product issues or bugs will arise that can be pretty severe, and it’s not always fixed in a timely manner
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us, with a limited staff, to support over 6500 iPads and 100” Macs with relative ease.
Lovin' JAMF in a K-12
What do you like best about the product?
ability to push apps to our clients and the out of box set up. Self Services gives us a vehicle to update devices and inventory at will and ensure that the right device has the access to correct apps/software.
What do you dislike about the product?
very little, JAM PRO allows us to give our end users an out of the box experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Minimal staff, maximum ability to help customers. With the ability to “auto-update” items through Self Service we can make sure everyone is playing with the same set of tools.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As easy to use as it sounds
Jamf Pro, Local, Apple, Zero Day Releases, Support, it's all there
What do you like best about the product?
They don'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, I love this. Cloud hosting is the way to go for us. No on site maintenance required, Jamf techs take care of upkeep, updates and issues without us having to do anything.
What do you dislike about the product?
The GUI could use some improvement. It's certainly not bad just could be improved looks a little dated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DEP devices enrolled directly into Jamf for zero touch IT configuration. The remote control you have over your devices especially is supervised mode is fantastic. No dealing with itunes accounts to download apps, VPP for our business is the way to go. It just works.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While they are an Apple only company at the moment, it would be nice to see support for other platforms. That said since all resources go into Apple they know there stuff on Apple products and I love zero day releases are tested so come launch day it's ready to rock.
JAMF Pro - Apple Enterprise Management Standard
What do you like best about the product?
The JAMF support and community is the best. Immediate assistant that is on point.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasional issues with upgrade bugs that can effect performance. AD integration related to certificates has remained a black whole, but could be an Apple issue
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AD integration related to certificates and 802.1x is are biggest problem. Second is patching of the OS and 3rd party applications.
Inventory access and software installation.

JAMF Pro
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use is the most appealing regarding JAMF Pro. I have had the opportunity to test a few MDM Platforms before sinking my teeth into JAMF Pro and it's truly the best in an, otherwise, specific market.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some unexplainable bugs and quirks in-platform that have not been able to be addressed by support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mobile device management and device uniformity. Total time spent touching a device has been drastically reduced.
I love the patching and it's tie in with Microsoft. Makes managing all devices easier.
What do you like best about the product?
Management of Apple products, ability to remote into machines throughout the country, patch management, ease of use and the general ease to teach people how to leverage jamf pro.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using Apple products. Only being able to run JAMF Pro on an OS machine and not having the ability to run it from a Windows machine too makes things difficult. It would be nice if there was a happy medium.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
asset management, printer deployments, security updates, application updates, application installations, remote controls and patch management.
Jamf Pro is AMAZING!
What do you like best about the product?
SELF SERVICE app is the best thing since moving to Macintosh OS in our school! This allows our IT department more time to work on more pressing matters since our teachers/staff/students can go get the apps they need asap using Self Service.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is hard to say anything bad about Jamf. Their support specialists are the best! They are always there to support us. The only thing I would say needs to be better is the price of the classes they offer. It is very expensive, but I feel is the best way to understand how to use the product to the fullest.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mobile Device Management! I can manage 600+ devices seamlessly using Jamf Pro. There are so many benefits including Self Service and DEP (Device Enrollment Program) PreStage Enrollment. The DEP PreStage Enrollment allows use to distribute computers without imaging. Zero touch enrollment! It is amazing!!! This saves so much time and energy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go to the classes offered by Jamf Pro. Helps understand how to use the product.
CCA administering two JAMF Pro instances for two large school districts.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use for administering iOS is second to none combined with the high level of control you get with Mac OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Mac OS administration gives you so much control that we sometimes get in our own way. We find a new/better way to manage something in Mac OS only to complicate our system as a whole and potentially negatively impact a previous configuration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been constantly tweaking our 1 to 1 iOS environment since day 0, three years ago. JAMF Pro makes it easy to integrate more restrictive controls with our SIS. This gives our school administration the keys to make changes per student on the fly without waiting for IT to implement broad restrictions. This has given the granularity our administrators have asked for in the speedy timeframe they want it.
