JAMF was actually a really good platform but JAMF was built and designed for apple devices which did not help us with Android. At one point we needed JAMF because of the MACs that we handed out (Only like 3 MACs). Eventually it made more sense to just move the MACs over to …
We were already Cisco Meraki customers so it was a logical step to use their SM product. That said, we did compare to other vendors and we are happy with our choice. Integration and ease of deployment was a big factor. While some competitors could offer lower costs, the …
There is no comparison between Meraki SM and Jamf Pro. Just don't. If you're using Meraki SM, do yourself a favor and make the switch to almost any other solution. Yes, you can use Meraki to tie your device management to your network. And I can see reasons for why that might be …

We have used the System Manager program in Meraki. We have used Google Admin to manage Chromebooks. We have used Active Directory and Group Policies within the Windows ecosystem.
Nothing compares to the power and manageability of Jamf Pro.
Once again we chose Jamf Pro as our preferred vendor/supplier for MDM cause they focus on the platforms we focus on. For our Microsoft deployments, we use InTune cause it is the best for the Microsoft platform. And the great thing about these two products is that integrate with …
Jamf Pro is far superior to any other Mobile Device Management solution on the market. Most MDM's stop with Configuration Profiles where Jamf offers policies with custom scripting resources for both Inventory and taking action on macOS. Jamf Pro offers a more stable and robust …
The issue that I have found with many other mobile device management systems is that they try to do too much. Most other MDMs allow for management of Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and maybe more; the issue is that they …
