JamF Pro vs VMware Workspace One
We performed a comparison between JamF Pro and VMware Workspace One based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: JamF Pro is a PeerSpot user favorite due to dynamic features such as zero-touch deployment, numerous API integrations, Automated Device Enrollment, and device lost mode retrieval. JamF Pro is easily customizable, easy to deploy, and is an excellent tool for those organizations heavily vested in an Apple ecosystem. The consistently excellent service they provide makes it a solid, reliable solution.
"Configuration profiles, remediation, scripts, and auto-pilot features are very good."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"Among the most valuable features are the Company Portal that is built into Intune, and the update rings so that we can manage what types of future updates the devices get."
"The ability to send configurations to our systems is valuable, particularly as we don't have a regular Windows AD server. Our current environment doesn't have a Windows AD, which limits our ability to push GPOs. However, this is where the solution can step in and help us push policies."
"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."
"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."
"Easy to use."
"The remote wipe and lock features are by far the best tools."
"We were able to dramatically enhance our cybersecurity, and better support our users."
"Having the ability to automate our workflows has been great."
"To have a zero-touch setup for the Macs and iPhones is more valuable than one can think."
"Jamf Pro allowed us to patch and manage endpoints while collecting log data to help improve operational efficiency."
"It is a first-rate product and well known in the industry as the gold standard for Apple device management."
"I can set policies to manage devices by many variables OR keep it simple by leveraging DEP to assign new devices the standard apps."
"The user interface is great."
"It's a tool that can be managed in various departments."
"It seems highly stable and scalable."
"No issues with scalability."
"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."
"We can impose cybersecurity requirements."
"The initial setup is easy and the deployment doesn't take too long."
"Cloud-based VMware Workspace ONE is very good. It is easy to deploy and manage. Maintenance is also quite simple."
"The feature with the highest rating for me is its employee management. I can also praise how versatile it is in terms of operating systems. It has good support for multiple operating systems and can easily manage them all. Not just that, but it can also support any kind of tool that can be run on all these operating systems."
"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"Technical support is not that great."
"They need to integrate more with security options."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"More integration with monitoring tools is needed."
"Cost is the biggest factor for us right now. Microsoft Intune and AD P1 together in a bundle is a good thing to have, but it is very costly compared to other products in the market. Otherwise, Microsoft Intune is the best."
"Some enrollment features could be improved."
"An area for improvement is the absence of seamless integration, particularly with external dashboards."
"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."
"Jamf Pro currently is only used on Mac computers and could improve by having compatibility with other operating systems. We have to use other tools to manage our Windows and Android devices. There could be other improvements but I am still exploring and learning more about the features."
"I think it would be best if Jamf had support tiers."
"There are known issues with the mobile configs that need to be fixed."
"Jamf should give the option to download individual device policy logs, as this capability would really help to diagnose issues."
"The reporting needs to be improved so that generating them is more user-friendly."
"Some improvement can be made in the customer service realm, while also making additional training level courses available for online study and exam-taking."
"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."
"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."
"The only downside to the solution is that the dashboard is very confusing."
"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA devices."
"They need a more flexible pricing model."
"The reverse proxy is not intuitive and it takes time to get it right, so this is something that can be improved."
"AirWatch doesn't seem to empower IT admins to try new things or get creative with implementations."
"When we had some issues, the support did not respond quickly, and they did not provide a solution."
"One of the things that I want them to improve on, if possible, is the management of Mac devices, MacBook Pro, for example. They do it, but they have scope for improvement, in my opinion. It's not that it's that bad, it just a small need."
