We are using Jamf Pro to make sure all of our macOS systems are compliant with our IT Security policies. As well as a way to improve our support of macOs systems in our environment. Jamf Pro is used throughout the entire organization. It addresses our concerns about having unmanaged devices. We can push updates and other approved software, as well as enforce restrictions. It has been a tremendous help when performing audits.

Jamf Pro for efficient Pro-formance
Jamf Pro is being used together with Jamf Cloud to manage our 1-to-1 iPad environment in our lower school. It allows us to quickly make changes to the student devices, and with Covid, manage them off-campus. This increased efficiency has allowed us to keep a very slim technology department which allows us to focus on the tools for our users, rather than managing people and processes.
- Jamf Pro offers great customer support.
- The Jamf Pro UX is hands-down the most intuitive MDMs that I have used.
- Jamf Pro allows for easy management with no hidden upgrades within their service required to access greater functionality. You pay for a full product and get a full product. That said, there is a premium, but you still get full management at Pro.
- The UX offers a slick design, but no offer of customization. For my IT director, it is too dark, for me, it is too light.
- Occasionally, you have to work your way through the support professionals to get one who knows how to fix your rare-bird, extremely unlikely to ever repeat in another user issue that you somehow managed to find.
- Scalability in costs so that I can justify putting Mac on there as well. We have a bunch of Macs roaming campus free of an MDM, and what little I want to manage does not justify the cost.
The primary use case is to manage everything Apple in our environment. Everything from assigning the asset to the user, controlling licensing via App Store, custom policies and configurations. The goal is to ease the burden on our Service Desk, while also enabling the user to be more self sufficient. In the past I have used many MDM solutions and most of the time it came down to poor documentation with them compared to Jamf. We found the resources provided were more then enough to get us up and running. Plus the continued support from their staff have been awesome!
- Jamf Nation - valuable information, tips, tricks and resources to go to when you might have issues. Often times the issue you are facing, isn't something new at all. There are always others who have run into it and can provide valuable insight to resolving. If it is something completely new, you have a plethora of other admins at your disposal who are able to quickly assist you.
- Integrated patch management - easy to keep your software up to date on devices.
- I think one of the big ones is automated device naming for Computers. You can do this via mobile devices in the pre-stage but not Computers. Having the ability to assign devices to a specific pre-stage enrollment group and having said group identify all systems via a specific prefix/suffix would benefit us a lot and keep a better consistency when it comes to users' machine names.
- Improved Patch Management - This is in the works, I know, but having access to more applications or even improving the method to organizing/configuring patch management will be beneficial. Currently, it's a painful process to set it up.
- Support for devices outside of Mac. A lot of Org's are looking to merge their fleet into a single MDM and while Jamf is the best I've used for Apple devices, having more functionality for devices outside of the Apple universe would benefit it in the eyes of other Org's.

Jamf pro is used across our entire organization. This is a best MDM tool for Apple devices. Jamf is the leader in this area and especially with Intune integration even though the integration piece has some short falls. This dosent mean as the product is bad.

We are using Jamf [Pro] managed macOS devices across the globe.
We want to manage unmanaged macOS devices using Jamf Pro Cloud Solution. Secondly we want to migrate Intune managed macOS devices to Jamf Pro. We would like to comply with our company security policies that we achieved using CIS Benchmarks.
We want to manage productivity applications as of Office 365 suite apps, VPN, Google Chrome, NoMAD and other business apps as required in real time.
Our users want to access intranet sites that we were able to achieve smoothly.
Finally we are able to manage admin rights process on macOS.
- Self Service is the one stop solution for end user.
- Configuration profiles are best friend to implement CIS Benchmarks, PPPC, Office apps customization, restriction and many other cool features.
- Composer is the my best friend to create any complex package, its super easy to use.
- Jamf inbuilt FileVault is super straight forward and doesn’t require lot of mathematics calculation to implementation.
- Jamf Support is super helpful, professional and all the engineers are very nice to dealt with.
- KnowledgeBase Articles should be introduced in Jamf Pro.
- Light and Dark background feature should be included while login to Jamf Pro.
- Jamf training curriculum need to be revisit specially Jamf 400 Expert exam.
- Jamf should give the option to download individual device policy logs that will be really help to diagnose the issue.
- Jamf Reset app is super duper cool but it’s only available only for iOS , likewise we should have Jamf reset app on macOS.

Great product to manage your macOS fleet in your enterprise
Jamf Pro gives you the best tool to manage your Apple macOS fleet in your company. Unfortunately Apple is limiting the way you can manage macs compared how you manage Windows devices. Therefore you need an elegant strategy to manage your devices. Jamf Pro helps you with that. The combination of the Apple MDM commands and the Jamf binary helps you to get the most out of it.
Everything Apple does not enable with MDM commands you can take care of with scripting and custom policies. With that, your options are almost endless managing your Apple macOS devices. I'm using Jamf Pro since May 2015 and there is no other vendor who does such a great work, helping you succeed with your macOS devices.
- Use of Internal API in scripts. With the API you can do wonderful things to automate your deployment and create a wonderful enduser experience.
- Use of scripts in policies to automate your deployment.
- Use of the Apple MDM commands to get everything out of it.
- The integrated patch feature is good, but needs some tweaking. As of now, there is no option for the user to defer the installation of a patch. You can either give them the option to install the patch through self service (which needs an active part of the user to do it) or you can force the installation. However with the force of the installation, there is potential data loss, because an App which you want to patch needs to be closed for it to work. The info about that the app will be closed for patching is almost not noticeable for the user.
- Therefore we do no use the integrated patch management technology and build our own logic to work around it.

Fantastic Apple MDM
Jamf Pro is used across our whole organization. It allows our technicians to systematically manage more devices than they could on their own while providing a consistent user experience.
- It allows for many customized workflows.
- It has smart groups allowing for dynamic configurations.
- The cloud version is fast and requires no upkeep.
- App licensing needs some work.
- Technician permissions could use more granularity.
- It’s not cheap.

We started out with Jamf Pro back when it was Casper Suite and on-prem only. It's been our MDM since RBS first launched our Apple technology 1:1 initiative back in 2013. Jamf Pro has allowed us to maintain a 500+ mobile and desktop device inventory with ease. Everything from device deployment through security profiles and configuration is simple to set up and powerful. Jamf Pro's cloud-based servers have phenomenal uptime and make running the system effortless. I would strongly recommend Jamf Pro to any institution with more than 10 apple devices. It is by far the best MDM in its price range.

Our team uses Jamf Pro to secure and manage a fleet of approximately 50,000 Mac workstations around the globe. We are a multi-platform shop - Macs are used by employees in several areas of the business such as sales, product engineering, and C-suite level executives. They make up around 50% of the computers deployed to our full-time employees.
- Same-day support of the latest macOS releases.
- Extensive reporting capability that is easily extendable to suit custom requirements.
- Comprehensive MDM management capabilities.
- Integration with Apple Business services.
- Integration with Microsoft Azure AD.
- Patch Management needs improvement, often patching must be done via policy.
- Database is inefficient at scale in some areas. This is improving but there is still work to be done.
- Does not support MySQL clustering.

We use Jamf Pro to manage our macOS and iOS fleet. It makes our job so much easier. Instead of having to setup every computer and phone for the user, Jamf Pro takes care of it for us. We can have the vendor send the products to our employees directly and using JAMF + Apple's DEP have them automatically setup without someone from IT having to do anything. It saves so much time that we probably would need to double our IT department without it.
- Zero Touch Enrollment/Deployment. Start your computer, enter your directory credentials, and Jamf Pro takes care of it.
- All the necessary inventory information is always in our hands. If something is missing, we can create extended attributes for it.
- We can manage security settings for everybody without having to trust that a user does something the right way.
- I would like an inventory section that shows everything without having to do it as a search.
- Maybe they could implement a few workflows that are a bit general so you don't have to create them yourself.

Incredibly happy with Jamf Pro
We're currently using Jamf Pro in one department within our college to manage 100 Macs located in ten labs, classrooms, and conference rooms. It provides a consistent user experience for approximately 400 users across all 100 machines. It has replaced our former cocktail of DeployStudio, WorkGroup Manager, and Munki which... mostly worked. Mostly. Jamf is proving to be a much more stable solution for us, and it's so much better to have all that management centralized into one product. We're able to efficiently keep our labs securely patched and push out settings to maintain compliance with directives from Central IT.
- Manages printers much more conveniently and cleanly.
- Streamlines our annual wipe/refresh process for our labs and classroom.
- Makes it super easy to deploy settings and configurations to our clients.
- Keeps software securely patched.
- Can't use a cloud distribution point as a failover for an on-prem distribution point.

Jamf helps us succeed in Healthcare with Apple

We use Jamf Pro to manage our Apple devices. Whether they are devices for patients, clinical or staff. Jamf Pro makes it possible to lock down our patient room Apple TVs to be used only by the iPad in that room. We wouldn’t want another device affecting a different room inadvertently. Jamf’s Healthcare Listener allows us to perform actions on our devices based on ADT/HL7 feeds. This is a huge automation tool that drastically reduces the load for IT in getting a device ready and allowing our staff to focus on our next patient.
- Jamf supports new features from Apple on Day Zero. We are able to test our devices with Apples betas with Jamf betas in order to be ready for that next OS.
- Jamf understands Healthcare. Their ADT/HL7 Listener allows for us to create and customize automations that are triggered by existing workflows. This gives us more capability with a faster implementation time.
- Meeting and reporting on compliance are powerful in our industry. Getting alerts in real-time and being able to act on them was a deciding factor to use Jamf Pro.
- Jamf's Support team knows Apple Tech and devices. You dont have to wait days for a specialist like some of the other venders we have.
- Not a lot of customization in the dashboard. Need to build those out in Service Now instead. At least there is a strong integration there.
- Like all MDM’s, Jamf is ultimately limited to the APIs allowed by Apple. This can be frustrating at times. Sometimes workarounds are available, and other times new tools can be created using Jamf’s APIs.

If Apple made an MDM...
Jamf Pro is used predominantly by IT and Digital Services. Initially it was brought in to manage our Macs in student teaching labs and staff devices, it has since been expanded to manage kiosk iPads, all staff iOS devices and to manage our one-to-one undergraduate student iPad distribution of 3000-4000 devices per year. We use it to ensure device compliance, distribute apps, secure devices and secure our company data.
- Jamf Training Catalogue is a great resource for getting staff up to speed on Apple and Jamf support and management.
- Jamf Nation is a really valuable resource for Mac and Apple management
- Jamf Cloud scales up and down as you need it
- Jamf allows a really high Users:Admin ratio
- UI could look more like the System Preferences or Settings
- Default Account Settings should be what are recommended in Jamf 200 Training
- Please get Conditional Access for iOS working again
Being an organization that is predominantly Windows 10, the need for a management system that integrates seamlessly with macOS was needed. Trying different solutions was cumbersome but when we started using Jamf Pro it was seamless and "unnoticeable."
Users are still able to work effectively and efficiently while the Jamf admin manages the device's security and configurations of all of the corporate users. Jamf makes it easy to segregate the different department groups of users and also helps push out policies and settings quickly and effectively.

Jamf Pro is being used across our business to ensure that our corporate devices (both iOS and macOS) are safe and secure. This in turn has enabled us to gain the Cyber Essentials certification.

Further to this as a reseller and partner of Jamf and personally being a certified Jamf Admin I was with our customer base to plan, deploy and support them with Jamf and their Apple Devices so that they too can address the needs of their business

I use Jamf Pro across the entire school division. It makes iPad and Mac administration really easy and powerful. My saying at work is "Jamf is my second Co-worker," as it literally takes a huge load off me. If I need an app on an iPad or Mac, I just deploy it to self-service and email them back saying "it's ready for you to install yourself." Need printers reset? They go to self-service and reset the printers and reinstall them themselves.

Jamf Pro is being used to manage iOS and MacOS devices across our organization, at multiple sites of varying sizes, and across a variety of network link sizes. It allows IT to centrally manage, deploy, and decommission these devices using automated methods that save technicians time. It is also very cost effective when looking at lifecycle management of the devices.

We are a K-12 school district with iPads 1:1 in all grade levels. All of our staff have an iPad and a MacBook. We use Jamf Pro to manage all of these devices. Management of all of these devices would not be possible without Jamf Pro. We use it to push apps, set restrictions, and help troubleshoot problems with devices.
- Getting all the necessary apps out to students and staff. Jamf Pro makes this an absolutely seamless process.
- Setting restrictions for our devices. We are able to set different restrictions for staff and students at different grade levels. This is a necessity in a school district.
- Jamf support is amazing. They have a very quick turn around time and are always super helpful. If they don't know the answer, they will find someone who does.
- I would love for Jamf Pro to take over the daunting task of creating packages for the most common Mac apps used.
- Pulling data from Jamf on apps, smart groups and such can sometimes be difficult. I would like to see that integrated.
- Cost for Jamf Pro is getting steep, would like to see better pricing for school districts.
