    Kandji
    Kandji is well-suited for the following: - Onboarding remote employees (we are a remote company). Kandji offers zero-touch deployment via Apple Business Manager, making it incredibly easy to configure our Macs. -Maintaining security and compliance for Apple devices -Managing a fleet of iOS devices in the field. Where it's less appropriate: -When there is a mixed OS environment -If you have a highly custom or script-heavy environment.

    Once we had got 20k plus users to blacklist. The data was too big. We wanted the results within some hours. When we used SDM and did all in one shot. It hardly took 2 hours. The same we presented to the clients in our weekly call. Got appreciation as well for that. Yes, just to summarize, even though we have huge datas, this helps us to fetch the results too easily. Thanks.

    • We also blacklist the applications that creates any risk when triggered incident for us.
    • It is a very convenient for us to handle as it gives an excellent security, even if we run any queries in the background.

    Cons
    Kandji
    • Problem after problem after problem with employees getting locked out of their laptops, (which was the whole reason we switched to Kandji - to prevent that from happening), employees ultimately having to factory reset their laptops to get back in, pop-ups that never go away, and continuous password sync issues.

    • At times whitelisting the applications creates a problem, now it has been improved more.
    • No editable option once the data saved.
    • License issue has been occurred initially. Even though license was there, we couldn't use it properly. Slow it recovered.

    Usability
    Kandji
    I gave it an 8/10 because overall, it offers a spotless and intuitive interface that makes routine device management easy. Features such as onboarding, app deployment, and compliance enforcement are handy, thanks to the various blueprints we can set up. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is that it lacks some advanced configurations, and the reporting aspect is not as customizable.

    With Intune, they aren’t friendly with Macs. We had to add each app individually and constantly update the packages for updates. Even when we do everything right, it still doesn’t work all the time

    As I said, we can do the task in bulk which is the added advantage in this. At times alerts gets triggered in multiple like 1000 plus. We can't do it manually as it kills time. But by using this, we can do it on bulk within hours. So likewise, we also did in the same way. We can pull reports also from this (excel files). We showcased to clients wherein we got the appreciation also. Really liked. Thanks team!

    Return on Investment
    Kandji
    • They promised us we could add devices as needed. I even had that written in an email. However, they rescinded that promise and required us to add devices in buckets of 50. That means, since we had 55 users, we had to pay for 100 licenses.
    • Password issues were made much worse by using Kandji instead of our old MDM (Hexnode).
    • Overall, Kandji created major headaches with laptop instead of improving.
