Find out what your peers are saying about JAMF, Microsoft, Kandji and others in Mobile Device Management (MDM)."I believe that the solution is actually in Gartner's top quadrant at the moment for mobile device management."
"Based on my experience, I find Intune very flexible for managing Windows devices. We can use scripting, and we can make use of the self-service portal or the company portal to publish some of the applications for Windows."
"I like that we can implement conditional access."
"The ability to switch between Affinity and non-Affinity enrollment is great."
"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."
"I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"By using Microsoft Intune we can control which websites the users can go to and it provides a secure environment for our employees using their laptops that are having access from home. We have installed Intune to control the user's environment minimizing the chances of any hacking."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"It's as easy as procuring the licensing for the apps and then setting it to the volume purchasing back in Jamf."
"Smart groups and just the way MDM works are valuable. We like all the features that they have. We try to use it as much as possible, and then we have the support and community involvement to reach out to."
"Automated Device Enrollment workflows are great for zero-touch deployments, vital in the current global context. With Automated Device Enrollment workflows, we can deploy new Apple devices directly to end-users without help from the IT support team."
"Patch management and associated policies help us manage and update our fleet's software."
"We like the pre-stage enrollments."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to manage all devices through Apple's DEP and forcing them into Jamf pre-stage enrollment."
"It offers professionals an endless amount of possibilities to keep users and the company happy."
"The solution has good integration with Google and has high performance for our Mac fleet of devices."
"It's a very easy plug-and-play solution where you can just enroll the devices and choose the features you want."
"It would be good if, in addition to the minimal patching and compliance, we could also use Intune for application deployment. For instance, if a device is not patched, Intune should have the ability to push not only a Microsoft patch but also other patches, such as a browser patch."
"I think there should be a better tracking of the cell phones used on the Intune."
"There is room for improvement in integrating additional features such as Purview and SharePoint activities into Intune."
"Microsoft Intune needs to improve the initial login process."
"Reporting could be improved. It needs to be more expensive and robust."
"The reports that are generated aren't so great. They don't give a lot of meaning so far, but that could be down to user knowledge than the actual reporting side of things. I'm not a big user of it, but I was a bigger user of MaaS360, and we used to be able to run weekly and monthly reports. In the case of any deviations. we'd get a warning immediately. That's not so easy to do or to get in place for Intune. This could be just a user issue, but when I compare both, that's the only thing that's lacking for me."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"The reporting with PowerBI could be improved."
"It would be amazing if they would give Apple TV management its own space in Jamf Pro and not just mix it in with devices."
"If it could do ticketing and non-Apple devices then that would be huge."
"I'd like to see Jamf add Unified Endpoint Management, but it's not going to happen. It's too complex. We tried that for so many years, and no one can do this for Windows and macOS. It can be done with iOS, but that's not the case here. If you want device management for a real laptop operating system, you need two systems. They're very different."
"The solution needs cheaper training."
"I would like to see tighter integration with Jamf Protect in the future releases of Jamf Pro."
"I wish there was a profile that could be created for configuring Apple software updates on a global basis for our devices, via a configuration profile."
"The response time for support could be significantly improved."
"Kandji should give open customization."
