"JumpCloud enables different kinds of connections and enables employees or subcontractors not within the company to connect to our network securely."
"I am impressed with the product's remote access which allows admins to control endpoints which is a timesaver."
"The most valuable features of JumpCloud are flexibility, policy management for devices, and device patch management. For example, we can limit access to devices only in Chile or send a number of commands to the devices to manage them."
"The whole product is great. The device management is amazing. The fact that you can basically set up an entire machine without having the machine in front of you is most valuable."
"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."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product enables device management."
"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."
"First of all, the solution is very simple."
"It offers very helpful support. The technical team is very helpful."
"I like the tool's workflows, which is user-friendly. It can integrate with different applications. I particularly like that users are delighted to access their applications without the hassle of entering their username and password each time. It truly enhances user-friendliness."
"One of the most beneficial features of the solution is the user provisioning and the de-provisioning feature."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"One of the features that I have found to be very valuable is its interoperability and compatibility with all types of resources, whether it's networking, infrastructure, or applications. That is, it is compatible as well as interoperable, as far as the federated authentication is concerned."
"Enabled MFA to access federated applications as well as increased user satisfaction through improved provisioning times and more reliable processes."
"It's reliable and it does what it is advertised to do."
"For improvement, the tool should introduce more customization options."
"Support is not good enough."
"A nice feature called patch management with different kinds of licensing is not included in JumpCloud."
"It could dip into CI/CD tooling as well. That would be a very interesting part to see."
"JumpCloud could improve the compatibility with other devices and operating systems. For example, the solution only works well with Mac and some Linux devices. It does not work for mobile devices, such as Android."
"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."
"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."
"JumpCloud can improve in its synchronization of identities. More specifically, groups with Office 365. They've been working on it, but it's not where I would necessarily like it to be."
"Therefore, if you have 10 million users, that's almost 100 million, so it is costly."
"There should be automated aggregation and complete classification processes included in it."
"The product is expensive compared to other tools."
"The only area of concern in the solution stems from the fact that my company needs some help regarding the setup phase from a partner."
"You can't hide the device when you're checking logs."
"They should focus on improving them to provide top-notch team access management while still offering those typical features."
"RESTful Web Service calls and their response seem a bit slow."
"This user integration with the Okta integration network could be simplified."
