We performed a comparison between Jamf Connect and Microsoft Intune based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zscaler, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco and others in ZTNA as a Service."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 tool supports different types of authentication. It also integrates seamlessly if you are using other Jamf products."
"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."
"I would rate the product's scalability an eight out of ten."
"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."
"It's connection with Azure is the most valuable. It is easy to deploy and connect."
"It has helped with compliance. It has helped to ensure that devices comply with the organization's policy. If they are not compliant and secure, they cannot access the resources."
"For the price, the features included with Microsoft are appealing."
"The ability to (somewhat) manage full Windows 10 computers including EXE-based or MSI-based application deployments using Azure Active Directory as Identity."
"The solution is easy to use, simple to understand for those new to using it, and combined with the other Microsoft products it makes for an overall good package."
"We already use a lot of Microsoft products in our company, and therefore, it made sense to also use this product."
"A valuable feature is user enrollment, where users can enroll their devices in their organizations themselves."
"The conditional access policies that we set up are very useful."
"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"When a Mac is joined to Azure, the generic Pro console in the MDM should accurately display the Mac as joined to Azure in the inventory section. Currently, it shows "no domain account found," which can be misleading."
"The solution’s technical support is bad and should be improved."
"Jamf Connect is beginning to implement Multi-Factor Authentication for offline authentication, but the setup documentation is insufficient."
"The solution's UI could be more user-friendly for the setup process."
"Overall, there is a lack of consistent experience sometimes with some of their features."
"The logs are an area with a shortcoming."
"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."
"There can be delays in the deployment of new policies."
"Reporting in Microsoft solutions is pathetic. With Intune, I'm getting a free inventory tool, but I don't get a reporting tool. When I go to Intune, I can see one machine's entire data in terms of the hardware and the software running on it, but I cannot generate a report for all the machines in the organization. The reporting is the only feature holding back the functionality that is already there."
"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."
"I think that there is room for improvement with the reporting. If this is done, it will be a better product."
"Regarding mobile devices, Intune is good, but there are other services that I would say are ahead of Intune from an administration and reporting point of view."
"Intune doesn't provide much control over Windows servers. It's something we struggle with."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"Intune could add more Linux security features and more integration with on-prem devices. The application deployments can also be improved."
