We performed a comparison between Jamf Pro and Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like the fact that it's integrated with the rest of the Microsoft products, so customers can manage it from their Office 365 portal or Azure portal."
"The conditional access policies that we set up are very useful."
"There are so many features, but Windows Autopilot is one of the features that are very valuable for most customers."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"It is a very stable and scalable cloud-only solution."
"Intune provides full visibility into all active mobile device users. If their devices are noncompliant with our security policies, I have the flexibility to update them remotely."
"The most valuable feature is the policy CSPs."
"I like the group policy management feature, which performs application monitoring and device enrollment."
"We are able to manage our full fleet of devices and can simply integrate with all of our systems."
"Jamf cut the time it takes to deploy a new machine to a new user."
"It is a first-rate product and well known in the industry as the gold standard for Apple device management."
"Self Service empowers the user and allows them to install the software they need when they need it."
"Jamf Pro allowed us to patch and manage endpoints while collecting log data to help improve operational efficiency."
"Some of the most valuable features for us include remote management, DEP enrollment, and zero-touch deployment."
"It is a great tool. Its ease of use is fantastic. It is very simple, and you don't really have a high learning curve with this."
"It's a scalable product."
"The solution offers excellent documentation that is easily available online."
"The solution is very good at securing files. For example, if I forward a secure document, it's blocked from others, as I can send it with restrictions in relation to who can open it."
"The product is a unified solution and you don't require to purchase tools from different vendors. The system analyzes behavior and activity and takes steps for protection."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product is centralized and we can use it for security purposes."
"You can scale the solution up or down by department."
"The solution is scalable."
"Microsoft Mobility and EMS include Intune for Mobility, which provides mobile device management and mobile application management. With mobile device management, you can control the entire device in an organization."
"Sometimes, customers compare it with AirWatch, but the concept of Intune is different from other solutions. It's an application management app. It gets a bit difficult to explain it to customers, but it's not a product limitation. It takes a presale document or presentation to explain it to customers."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"Intune does not provide real-time visibility."
"It needs certificate provisioning for S/MIME purposes."
"The policies we had in SCCM and AD offered features that are missing from Microsoft Intune."
"Reporting and troubleshooting for the application deployment could be better. It's very difficult to understand."
"It's the granularity: 'Is your firewall on? Is BitLocker on?' It's not amazing granularity. But I've looked into other products, like Duo, and they're all similar."
"They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular. Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants."
"We had some issues with its integration with other products, such as Intune. There were some issues with the way you have to register your device into Intune."
"Inventory reporting could be better, however, that is already slated to improve with some of the new features Apple has announced in WWDC 2022."
"A dark mode would for sure be appreciated."
"I would like to see either a report section or an integration with a new reporting module to allow us to pull real metrics from the system easily."
"The integrated patch feature is good but needs some tweaking."
"Jamf could improve versioning as in outright blocking OS upgrades OR improving maintaining every application’s update feature. As of now, only some apps, like Flash, have managed updates."
"There should be an option for exporting the data for reporting purposes so that we can give that to the higher-ups, such as CIO. We should be able to see bar graphs and charts on different data points. It would be great to have a good reporting tool to look at, for example, data points of how many versions of Adobe Acrobat we have in our environment in a bar graph or pie chart. They don't have anything like that. There is an application called Tableau Reader, which does statistics, and you can put a statistical or analytical aspect in there to extract data and share it on a graph or a pie chart. Such a tool would be great."
"The product is pretty good as-is, but if anything could be improved I would say the UI could perhaps be a bit simpler. A mobile app to complement the web-based version, to perform specific tasks, would be nice to have - a good example of what I mean is the "Pulseway" MDM for Windows, they have a very useful and user-friendly mobile app."
"Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security is expensive."
"Microsoft's feature management is based on licenses. Microsoft follows ethical licensing and hence do not restrict the use of it."
"We did the deployment with the help of Microsoft's consultants. But sometimes, we found it difficult to educate the application developers to integrate."
"The licensing can be messy at times."
"The auditing and reporting could be updated and upgraded. I would like to see light applications because they consume a lot of the device's memory at present."
"Its performance needs enhancement."
"The licensing is quite expensive."
"There are certain shortcomings in the licensing model of the product where improvements are required."
