Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is ease of access. It's convenient to do things like resetting passwords. Previously, users were bound to their domain. We had to bind the user to the domain and log them in through the AD. Now, using Jamf Connect, we don't face any of these challenges. Resetting passwords is hassle-free so we can regularly rotate passwords according to best practices.""Jamf Connect is an identity provider, and once you log in, you will have all the device's access.""The solution is scalable.""The most valuable feature is the synchronization of passwords with a local password, which works well.""It's connection with Azure is the most valuable. It is easy to deploy and connect.""Jamf Connect allows for easy and seamless joining of Mac devices to Azure AD, eliminating the need for third-party involvement or support engineer assistance.""Jamf Connect is a pretty simple and straightforward tool overall.""It's a good and stable tool, so you should use it if you have a need."

More Jamf Connect Pros →

"The antivirus and the ability to push security policies down to the device are key features.""The solution can scale.""We recently integrated Workspace ONE with our intelligence report, and this is a great tool from a reporting point of view. In our daily business, we get several requests from businesses to provide an Adobe request for monitoring, whether it is for Android or iOS devices. The main benefit of this tool is that we can exclude the report for applications.""The contained browser is a good feature.""It is like any other mobile solution. It gives us the ability to control remotely, and that is what we like. We can wipe out and deploy remotely.""It is easy to start something and work from scratch.""The location and remote management services are the most valuable.""I would rate the stability as eight out of ten."

Cons
"Overall, there is a lack of consistent experience sometimes with some of their features.""We have faced issues with the product's configuration. If we use the tool with other business manager solutions, then there is the issue of naming conventions. The tool needs to be careful with newer updates so that it doesn't break any of the existing configurations.""The solution’s technical support is bad and should be improved.""The solution needs to improve its licensing.""The logs are an area with a shortcoming.""The solution's UI could be more user-friendly for the setup process.""We've had some issues when users restart their devices because the device asks for credentials afterward. Jamf Connect asks for a username, password, and MFA.""The configuration could be faster."

More Jamf Connect Cons →

"The solution's pre-stage enrollment could be improved.""We'd like the customization to be better.""Pricing is the only challenge right now. The licensing fee should be simplified a little bit. They have kept too many products as add ons. These need to be bundled with the low-cost, standard version. This will help customers in adopting this technology at a faster pace.""They could provide DLP integration for applications and specific user account security.""I would like to see improvements made to both the support, and the pricing.""The initial setup should be simplified.""I prefer to work with Jamf Pro because it is more specific to working with the iPad features.""They need a more flexible pricing model."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It's relatively inexpensive."
  • "The pricing model could be improved, especially considering the availability of alternative MDM solutions like Kandji, which offers similar features for free or at a lower cost."
  • "We pay 2 dollars per device monthly. For the plus version, you have to pay 4 dollars per month. I think the product will give discounts based on the number of users and devices."
  • "The solution's price is reasonable."
  • "I rate the cost as three out of ten, with ten being the highest."
  • "Jamf Connect has a yearly licensing cost, which is expensive."
  • "The pricing is good."
  • More Jamf Connect Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "You should take out a dedicated license agreement of your MDM fleet and invest heavily in innovating in this space."
  • "In terms of pricing, this solution is definitely much more expensive compared to other solutions, like MobileIron or MaaS360 or any other product in the market. This solution is more expensive by 30 or 40 percent."
  • "I have no opinion about the pricing of the product."
  • "The pricing and licensing are affordable. They are not too high."
  • "I think the pricing of the product needs advisement. It would be great to bundle the VM products together. I think the actual box itself should be included in the license. At present, it is not paired with the mobile device."
  • "If you purchase it for one year, it is very expensive. If you get it for three years or up to five years, then you can bargain a better price."
  • "There is a separate cost for technical support and extra premium features. The pricing should be simplified."
  • "The cost is a little bit high."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below is some feedback from our PeerSpot users who are currently using the solution:

    PeerSpot user Patrick B., Cybersecurity Architect at a tech services company, says, "Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."

    Roshan T., Partner Manager North America at a tech company, mentions how satisfied he is with the product, saying, "You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
