We performed a comparison between JumpCloud and Scalefusion based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two ZTNA as a Service solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."With on-premises Active Directory, the main challenge was that we had no control when a user was working from home. We didn't know what exactly a user was doing and whether the AV was up to date or not. Intune provides better control of their machines."
"It is a helpful tool to manage BYOD policies."
"The main advantage is that Intune performs its intended functions effectively."
"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."
"The stability is good."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"Configuration profiles, remediation, scripts, and auto-pilot features are very good."
"The interface is clean and user-friendly. Setting up new devices or setting up new users inside the system is easy. Also, it integrates with Office 365, which is pretty much a must for our organization."
"After deploying to the cloud, we had remote device management on all of our corporate laptops."
"The product enables device management."
"As a cloud-based directory, JumpCloud allows me to integrate nearly every system I have come across that supports SAML 2.0. That's a specific technology that allows different services to integrate for user authentication and identification purposes. That means that with JumpCloud, I can then have one single password. Single sign-on for a particular user that works with VPN, radius authentication for WiFi, logging into Office 365, and their email. Their individual computers use that same password. It's extensible which allows us to tie in customers' security systems. We don't have to provision a new user, 12 different places with 12 different passwords. I only have to create them once and assign them privileges."
"Ability to integrate all applications."
"Azure Cloud services are on time and run well and if we use a JumpCloud, the benefits we receive are the ease of management and the solution is completely user-friendly. End users can do identity management easily."
"The UI is intuitively easy to use. It is easy to set up a user. I have found the group management to be pretty simple. You can group users, then assign them to groups of systems, and that relationship allows us to ease the management burden."
"The solution is stable."
"Scalefusion is easy to use, and they have a broad knowledge base, so you can quickly find answers if you're unsure how to do something. The articles on the knowledge base are well-written, with clear steps on what to do for a specific scenario. That part is well documented."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"When somebody has a customized application or their own company's application, we cannot deploy that application."
"The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments."
"We faced issues with macOS support. The product should have better inventory and asset management."
"Deploying an app can be a complex process due to dependencies."
"Intune should be much more granular in terms of supporting more Android cellular devices."
"The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded."
"The visual tool and interface must be more fine-tuned."
"Support is not good enough."
"The capability to get alerts would be great when CPU or RAM is high on an endpoint, or when a disk is failing. It would be great to get an alert rather than having to go looking for it."
"Lacks the ability to have various VPN applications."
"It could dip into CI/CD tooling as well. That would be a very interesting part to see."
"The querying for users in Jumpcloud could be improved, it is sometimes difficult to use. When you're trying to query a user and you spell out their name, you don't receive that person. Sometimes you receive a list of people with the same first name or last name. This could be better."
"A nice feature called patch management with different kinds of licensing is not included in JumpCloud."
"The product needs to create its own self-service feature which has been requested by all the admins in the community."
"It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button. Currently, we have to sift through different groups to block a device. It would be nice if Scalefusion allowed me to block without moving the device to a different profile. Another helpful feature they could add is the ability to migrate from one MDM to another. I'd also appreciate more extensive cloud storage. They give you 1 GB by default, but sometimes that's not enough."
