Jamf School vs. Sophos Mobile

Jamf is user-friendly and easy to set up. It allows Ipads to be managed in easy-to-understand groupings. It also allows teachers to take ownership of choosing and distributing apps. The safety features for students allow restricting of websites, apps, and even clearing some of the "clutter" of built-in IOS apps that you don't want on students screens such as news and measuring apps. I really enjoy using this product.

I recommend it for any corporate scenario of companies that have smartphones, tablets, and computers and want to manage them all by controlling what to install, permission to use applications and services, and easily obtaining a report and inventory of everything. We protect against viruses, spam, and the main cyber threats and also physical security against theft. Data can be erased from the cloud from anywhere, and we prevent data theft. It is compatible with all operating systems, and Sophos technical support is available worldwide.

We originally tried an MDM from Cisco and it did not deliver in useability or features like Jamf

Personally, haven't seen any other MDM on the market, but I feel since Sophos is greatly known to have easy to use products, that the others may not be as easy to use as Sophos Mobile Control. One of the key factors for organizations to choose Sophos Mobile Control and Security is because the Android OS (most attacked OS on the planet) is protected with award-winning antivirus and anti malware from Sophos. We have seen as advisors, how unprotected customers, get huge telecom bills because of the lack of security, since they think that an Android OS is healthy enough... big mistake. One simple thing I always tell friends, family and customers, protect your Android device with Sophos Security (it's free for home users).
