Jamf Pro has a reputation as being expensive per device; I think that after a successful implementation, the value becomes readily apparent. When you calculate the differences between on-site technical staff for every N device per site, versus a fleet administrator supporting every device at every site - while letting the software be 'always on' thus minimizing the impact of time zone differences - the cost becomes a non-issue.

Jamf Pro is on the expensive side and could be slightly cheaper. There are additional costs in that once you have Jamf Pro, you also have to consider Jamf Connect, which is an additional tool you have to buy. Then, of course, they also have Jamf Security software. Those are separate, so you also have to buy those additionally if you need them.

Although it might seem expensive, it is such a time-saver. Many overlook the fact that people's work hours cost money too. At the end of the day, it is cheaper to have a rock-solid solution that you can rely on and not have to troubleshoot, versus a cheaper solution that requires constant attention from technicians - I'd rather spend the time with the user to up their ante.

It seems fair. It could be a little bit less, but you have to pay for a product. You can't get something for free. You get what you pay for, so if you put in a little bit of money, you're going to get a good quality product. You don't get a cheaper Mercedes. You have to pay for it. Mercedes is not my choice. It's just an example of something that's built with quality.

Always ask for the best deal they can offer. There is special pricing available for particular businesses. 

Pricing is the one area I feel definitely needs improvement. Setup and licensing prices are getting to be too high. I would like to see the price drop a bit, especially for educational customers.

I cannot speak to the exact costs of the solution. 

Jamf Pro is worth the cost. You will certainly find the value once you use it every day and try to imagine your role without Jamf.

I understand Jamf isn't the cheapest solution out there, however, it is by far the best bang for your buck! You get what you pay for, basically. Jamf is always ready whenever Apple makes changes, and, for 6 years straight, there has never been any downtime or server failures.

Jamf Pro brings in cost-based solutions which are scalable for any small, mid, or large-scale organization.

If you are new to Jamf, take a course, or hire an expert to teach you how to set everything up. The initial jump start they suggest isn't enough. 

When evaluating solutions to look at the pricing delta between products rather than the total cost.

The cost of Jamf is certainly worth the investment.

I'd advise that new users check out the Jamf Business Plan, which is user-based licensing. It is now available to any existing customers and makes it much more affordable for getting the suite of Jamf products.

We have signed a licensing contract for three years. There is an option to buy an annual license subscription, but we opted for three years as it came with a 25% or 30% discount.

It would be beneficial if it could be reduced slightly.

The price for these products is designed in such a way that I believe it is a little on the high side.

This is an expensive solution.

The price of a training pass for five people was $18,000 USD.

The only thing that is kicking us a bit is the rand to the dollar exchange rate. It is priced in dollars. Every time the rand goes worse, it just costs more. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing because it is very unpredictable because of the rand to the dollar exchange rate.

There are not really any additional costs. We are looking at other products within Jamf, such as Jamf Connect and possibly Jamf Protect. Our vendor is looking at the business licensing model because at the moment, it is used as a device license, not as a user or business license.

The cost is average. The setup is not that bad. We used one of Jamf's quick kickstart consultants to get us going.

New users should make sure they pay to do the onboarding, and then, once onboarded, attend Jamf user groups and join the Jamf Heroes group.

It's hard to say with this.

A lot of the resources are great and enable Admins to configure the environment solo for the most part. I would recommend you have at least one of the Admins go through the training course to better enable themselves.

Depending on how much support you require, it might make sense to add that to the licensing agreement. I've seen the difference in the support structures, first hand, and I definitely enjoyed the dedicated support tiers.  

The setup is pricey upfront for support and setup. However, I do think it's necessary to get your environment up and running, especially if your techs have not been exposed to Jamf Pro yet.

The prices definitely could be better for smaller companies.

You can find Jamf's pricing online, and I would recommend contacting their sales and support staff to see if they can offer any additional discounts.

Jamf is quite up there. It wasn't the cheapest solution, but it's reasonable.  Apigee was cheaper than Jamf.

I think the pricing could be a little more cost-effective and maybe the training could be a little bit cheaper but other than that if your org is willing to pay for it it's definitely worth it.

The price of this solution is a bit high but it is worth the money for the features. 

There is an annual license for the use of this solution.

Cloud is worth the small increase in price, but make the switch before you need it, and not during a global pandemic.

The pricing is pretty perfect. I like it; it's very affordable.

With respect to pricing, I would suggest reaching out to a sales rep and discussing all of the options. I would advise them to evaluate their infrastructure and what is required. For example, whether an on-premises or cloud-based deployment is more suitable.

Don’t go into a sales call without knowing all the details of your system because Jamf has a ton of tools outside of Jamf Pro to offer and knowing them ahead of time is a must. 

The licensing costs for this solution are high. 

We only really look at the numbers once a year. I would not say it's the cheapest solution on the market, however, I would also say you get what you pay for when you sign up for any of these services. While there are cheaper ones, I would also say the cheaper ones are the cheaper ones across the board, so it's not necessarily great to go with the cheaper solution.

There are no extra fees. Once you have that in place, you're pretty much good to go.

If you can afford to go cloud services rather than on premises install go for it, it makes life easier when JAMF handles the physical server and JAMF Pro updates.

If you have the in-house capability to support Jamf, then paying for onboarding / JumpStart training is a no brainer. It will help you get up to speed on the product. It will not, however, cover the enrolment of all of your client devices into Jamf, so make sure to set aside time to do this.

If you don’t have a tech team, buy Jamf MSP. You won’t have access to manage the product yourself, but your Jamf MSP reseller can do that for you under some sort of contract / SLA.

To get information, call a Jamf representative. They are highly qualified people.

Licensing cost is dependent on the footprint and foreseen growth. I think another positive is Jamf's flexibility to understand what you need to be done while molding the product to be as successful as possible. 

I know that as a school we get a discounted price, which is good because without it we would not be able to afford it. For us, it is necessary to have a good MDM as the demand for technology rises.

For the number of management tools you have available and the ease of deployment, I believe the cost is worth it.

It is realistic in terms of the setup and costs.

The cost of any licensing is certainly outweighed by the time saved from manually managing Apple devices.

The cost of this solution is expensive but worth it. For sure, invest in support for the initial setup. Follow articles available to the letter.

The price difference between Jamf Pro and VMware Workspace One is not very much, but when counting the cost of my time, Jamf Pro is clearly much better.

I think it's on par with other enterprise solutions. It really comes down to how seriously your organization wants to take Mac management.

This product is surely worth the cost of implementation.

Initial setup will take some time and has a learning curve - allow yourself time to do this, or take some training ahead of time.

JumpStart is available at an additional cost.

The total ROI is worth every penny.

Licensing is based on the number of devices.

JumpStart looks a little bit pricey; however, it is worth every penny. 

This is a pricey solution.

I’m left out of the pricing decisions. As a general rule, I think it pays for itself to let Jamf host the server. If you send your tech to the CCT, then you won't need as much guidance from Jamf.

With respect to pricing, Jamf Pro is the better bet. 

The price is on the Jamf website. It's known to everyone. They have a standard pricing model which they follow, and it's global.

The setup cost is in the training, which is the most important step of your journey.
