ISI: Illuminate Student Information (discontinued) vs. Jamf School

One scenario where Illuminate is well suited is when we are creating mailouts for students and parents to send report cards and or progress updates, Illuminate allows us to quickly find a student's address. This feature allows us to cut down on the time it would normally take to lookup a student's address on another platform.

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.
