    It immediately tells you when an app is malicious, its always scanning the device. The policies you can enforce on the device allows you to know that the device can remain secure. I have a hard time describing scenarios where is it less appropriate because Harmony Mobile was made to secure mobile devices.

    Jamf school is amazing at device management as far as tracking devices, installing apps, removing apps, pushing out updates, and putting persons in specific groups or classes based on the needs of the student/teacher. There could be improvement in the instance where you send an iPad for repair and it returns with a new SN and you have to swap out the license from one SN to another.

    For the most part, Jamf School does everything it is programmed to do. However, there are a few instances where we have run into snags. This is to be expected with any software though and working customer support has always been helpful. Customer support does their best to help with each scenario we've had issues with.

    Harmony Mobile is really a cut above the rest because it really is the first application of its kind, the first Mobile Threat Defense tool that is designed for just that. Detecting and preventing threats. It should be the baseline used to develop other MTD applications because of its already high standards and quality.
