Kandji/Iru: The Easiest Way to Manage Your Growing Apple Fleet
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and intuitive interface of Iru are exceptional. The platform allowed us to achieve full device management for our Mac and iOS fleet incredibly fast, making the Ease of Implementation a major upside. We especially appreciate the one-click actions, pre-built Blueprints, and how straightforward it is to deploy apps and enforce compliance. Their Customer Support has also been responsive and extremely knowledgeable whenever we've needed assistance.
What do you dislike about the product?
While there's very little to dislike, we are looking forward to the continued expansion of features, particularly for advanced Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) capabilities and deeper integration with other core security platforms we use. This is a minor point, as the platform is already excellent for our core MDM needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Iru is solving our biggest challenge of maintaining a consistent security and compliance baseline across our rapidly growing fleet of Apple devices. It allows us to remotely enforce encryption, install critical security updates, and deploy required applications automatically. Crucially, Iru has made our device provisioning entirely hands-off. We can now simply ship a brand-new device directly to a user, and it automatically enrolls, configures, and secures itself right out of the box (OOBe) using Kandji's integration with Apple Business Manager. The immediate benefit is a massive reduction in manual IT workload, significant time savings for the IT team, and a reliable way to ensure zero-trust alignment for all endpoints, regardless of the user's location.
Effortless Integration and User-Friendly Experience
What do you like best about the product?
What stands out to me is how easy it is to use, along with its seamless integration with the tools we already rely on. Since all our devices run on MacOS and our company is organized through Google Workspace, the integration works flawlessly for our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
After using it for a year, the only difficulty we've encountered is having to add a new item—and remembering to do so—whenever a major OS release occurs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The product ensures that our devices stay secure and compliant with our internal policies, helping us achieving ISO 27001 standards as well as the Spanish Cybersecurity Framework (ENS).
Great for security, apps instaling and monitoring activity
What do you like best about the product?
Admin access is temporary and I'm free of responsability for installing non desired apps, I update install and uninstall only the apps approve by my employeer and that way about secutrity breachs
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, it works perfect for my position
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My managers know which apps I use and I cant install anything non corporate related
Simple MDM for IT teams, but can be distracting for end users
What do you like best about the product?
Kandji makes managing Macs much easier compared to other MDMs like Jamf. It lowers the skill barrier for IT teams while still giving us the same outcomes. Features like Managed OS for enforcing updates, Auto Apps for third-party patching, and Passport for IdP logins have been very useful. It’s straightforward to set up, scales well for large fleets, and gives good visibility into what’s happening. Overall, it saves time and reduces the amount of manual effort needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside is how intrusive the notifications can be. End users often get constant alerts about updates, even ones scheduled far in advance, and there’s not much flexibility to pause or mute them. This can be distracting during focus time and can hurt the employee experience. While the tool is great for IT, it could use improvements to make the user side less disruptive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Kandji helps us enforce OS and app updates consistently, keep our Mac fleet secure, and simplify identity-based logins. It reduces the overhead of managing devices across hundreds of employees and ensures compliance without a lot of manual work. While end-user experience isn’t perfect, from an IT perspective it’s been reliable and efficient.
Excellent MDM for medium size businesses
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to push apps and updates to all users or hold updates if there are concerns.
What do you dislike about the product?
Changing a users password if they forgot it or there are issues with the computer is an ordeal. I wish it was easier to force a password change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pushing new apps seamlessly and setting up new computers.
The best device management application out there
What do you like best about the product?
How easy it is to manage devices, the user friendly platform, and most importantly the scalability.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing I can think of that I dislike about Kandji.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing mobile devices in the company which benefits me because it makes our overall security better. Also the device reporting helps us with our security certifications for HITRUST.
Secure, Streamlined, Scalable: Why Kandji is a Top MDM for macOS and iOS
What do you like best about the product?
Kandji’s standout feature is its Auto-Remediation system. It continuously monitors devices for compliance and automatically fixes issues when something drifts out of spec. This reduces the manual work typically required in other MDMs and helps maintain security and compliance with minimal oversight. With Kandji + Apple Business Manager, you can set up and ship devices directly to employees—no IT hand-holding required. It’s especially great for remote and hybrid teams.
The admin dashboard is clean, easy to navigate, and makes device management less of a headache. You don’t need to be a command-line wizard to manage policies, apps, or updates. Kandji offers a huge library of pre-configured controls and policies (like FileVault, Gatekeeper, etc.) that can be applied with just a few clicks. It saves a lot of time during setup. Because Kandji is 100% Apple-focused, every feature is optimized for macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and tvOS. No compromises or clunky cross-platform workarounds like you might find in other MDMs. You can easily set up custom security baselines or use Kandji's built-in compliance templates (like CIS Benchmarks). It’s great for regulated industries or security-conscious teams. Kandji’s support team is knowledgeable and fast to respond—and they understand Apple environments, which isn’t always the case with generalist MDM providers.

What do you dislike about the product?
Kandji is positioned as a premium solution, and its pricing reflects that. While the features are robust, smaller teams or startups might find the cost a barrier especially when compared to other MDM tools with lower entry points. Kandji is fantastic for Apple environments, but it's not an option for organizations with mixed device fleets (Windows, Android, etc.). If you need cross-platform support, you'll have to manage multiple tools. Some users have noted the lack of a generous free trial or limited self-service onboarding as a downside. It would be helpful to have a hands-on experience before committing, especially for smaller teams evaluating multiple tools. Although Kandji is growing rapidly and expanding its features, power users who want deep-level scripting or advanced customization might find it less flexible than something like Jamf Pro, which has a more mature scripting and automation ecosystem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Kandji integrates with Apple Business Manager to automate device setup. This means new devices can be shipped directly to employees, and they’ll configure themselves on first boot—apps, settings, security policies, and all. Kandji addresses several key challenges that IT teams face when managing Apple devices, particularly in modern, remote, or fast-growing organizations. One of the biggest problems it solves is the time and complexity involved in setting up and deploying devices. With its zero-touch deployment feature, new Macs, iPhones, or iPads can be shipped directly to employees and configured automatically on first boot, saving IT teams countless hours and ensuring consistency across the fleet. Kandji also tackles the issue of inconsistent security and compliance. Its auto-remediation feature continuously monitors devices for issues—like disabled FileVault or outdated software—and automatically corrects them, helping organizations maintain strong security postures and meet compliance standards without constant manual intervention. Managing policies and updates is simplified through Kandji’s Blueprints and automation tools, allowing IT teams to push apps, settings, and scripts at scale with minimal effort. The platform also provides clear visibility into device health and compliance through an intuitive dashboard, which helps teams quickly identify issues and streamline reporting. Because Kandji is built specifically for Apple devices, it offers a more seamless and reliable experience compared to generic, cross-platform MDMs. Altogether, Kandji helps organizations save time, reduce risk, and scale their Apple device management with confidence.

Effortless Setup & Deployment: Kandji's zero-touch deployment
Kandji has been a blessing
What do you like best about the product?
Honestly, Kandji has been great. The Clean UI, Zero-touch deployment has been great, and scalable. Easy to provision access to many of our team members and give them access based on their roles and experience. The apps that Kandji manages and makes them available for us to use with out adding our apple account has been great. The technical support amazing, the folks at Kandji have been fantastic, Mac admins that really love helping. Their AI tool has been a life saver.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I would like Kandji to have is to make a tool to transfer JSon files to Plist, but not a big deal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Unifying our macs to one solid mdm from multiple ones.
4 Month using Kandji
What do you like best about the product?
Kandji is easy to get started with. Lots of prebuilt policies to manage Apple Devices. We predominantly use it to manage our MacBook fleet with users all over the world. Enrolment is easy either automated or manually via the portal. The protection features work well with options for remote reboot shutdown and wipe. The policies are comprehensive and it is much more user friendly for admins than other products on the market for MDM
What do you dislike about the product?
I have struggled to deploy apps via Kandji. It would be nice to get to an out of the box build experience. it would also be good if the location feature worked on MacBook as well as IPhone
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing device with international users and no physical offices. Ensuring policy compliance and ensuring users can secure their devices as easily as possible. It also maintains compliance by reminding users when they need to refresh like keys.
