Solid System Protection without the resource hog
Support for Silicon took over 9 months
Lack of day one support for new MacOS version
Switching to Protect has addressed those key issues mentioned above and more. It's also given us the flexibility of custom analytics to give us greater visibility over things that we are concerned about in our fleet not just AV related items. Using these in conjunction with Pro also allows us to set up custom remediation flows.
- Low resource use Protected Agent - stops tampering with agent and is not a resource hog
- Managed and custom Analytics - along with the out of the box Analytics provided by JAMF, admins can also set up their own to focus on areas of concern eg NISTcompliance items
- Vendor support - support is very responsive and knowledgeable
- JAMF Pro Integration - when introducing a new JAMF admin to the system explaining the integration always causes confusion. Pro integration only give limited visibility over things but has improved a lot. Room for improvement though.
Device Compliance - flexible analytics allows us to either report or remediate on non compliance. This gives us a better picture of how people are using certain features but also flexibility to revert b ack to standard if these are things that 100% we do not want in our environment.
AV - works exactly as advertised without crippling the machine and also uses some of the inbuilt OS systems

Jamf Protect--saving us money and boosting security
We use Jamf Protect on all our Macs. It works quietly and efficiently behind the scenes. Our users love that it does't bother them with prompts yet does its job very well.
The biggest benefit for us is that Jamf Protect allows us to give users admin access. Catalina and Big Sur are a lot harder to use without admin access. Jamf Protect adds a strong layer of protection that means a user with admin access who makes a foolish choice will not be able to install malware. Jamf Protect and Apple's security system will detect the malware, block it, and notify us of the issue. It has reduced our need for help desk tickets and more than paid for itself.
- Security--it scans processes for 'bad stuff'
- Notifies admins of any issues or potential issues; entirely customizable and we create many custom notifications and groups.
- Integrates with Jamf Pro
- Monitor CIS benchmarks via a clean and nice looking dashboard
- The integration with Jamf Pro has come a long way but could still be a bit more "one stop" vs two tools and two dashboards.
- Secure our systems against threats
- CIS benchmarks

Webroot was often missing things that were threats. SentinelOne was a bit more resource heavy. Solarwinds...err..."N-Able"...do I really need to say anything?
