Right tool for the job
What do you like best about the product?
JAMF Pro is simple to use and doesn’t require that I script everything to make it work. It’s a powerful tool for MacAdmins.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting could be better. I need to pull several different reports regularly and it can take some time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Patching, CIS compliance, machine staging, OS hardening, etc.
Excellent Mac Management
What do you like best about the product?
We had a slew of hardening requirements come from on-high with a tight deadline. JAMF Pro allowed us to push them out far more quickly and with more control than had we relied on the sneakernet.
What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest, the hardest part of working with JAMF Pro is UI quirks and inconsistencies. For instance, viewing a machine's profile and returning to the search results (depending on the situation) can require multiple button presses instead of having a simple 'back' button.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Right now we the aforementioned security requirements are the most important. And believe me - they find new ways to test us every day.
Jamf makes Mac and iOS management a breeze
What do you like best about the product?
The University of Oklahoma libraries have been using Jamf for years, and I only just started this past summer 2017 in the role as Mac/Jamf admin. Jamf has made being a Mac admin in a larger higher-Ed environment for easiest and more enjoyable for things like deployments and troubleshooting, using scripting/automation, imaging, and patch management.
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s not too much that I dislike, however I do wish that their was an official Jamf app for my iPhone that worked better than the mobile version of JSS. Also, as a newish user to Jamf/JSS, it would be cool if there were some kind of hoverable question mark type icons in JSS that would give brief explanations for some of the different aspects of the JSS, rather than having to jump out of the JSS and search for answers in the Jamf documnetion and Jamf forums (both of which are great).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mass deployment, inventory management, patch management, imaging and reimaging
The best in class MDM/EMM
What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is the industry standard device management platform. It scales with your knowledge and your needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
The great thing about Jamf Pro is that the open source community projects are able to be used with it. That and the Jamf nation is a great resource that picks up where Jamf Hands off.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Customers need custom configurations. Jamf Pro allows for scripted solutions that can be rolled out to fleets of devices.
Management made easy
What do you like best about the product?
JAMF Pro makes it easy to deploy and manage macs in an enterprise environment
What do you dislike about the product?
Some minor issues exist, most noticeably no organizational options on the dashboard, and no easy way to try to re-deploy a configuration profile.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before rolling out JAMF Pro we had no tool to manage macs, and they were all configured manually from start to finish. Now we used DEP and JAMF Pro together to make deployment and management easy.
Former Customer, Employee, Current Customer

Hands down best Apple management toolset
What do you dislike about the product?
Speed of feature release/feature request fulfillment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All macOS management goals. App distribution, settings management, reporting & compliance.
Jamf Pro will support employee choice on the Mac and an ever-growing Apple device footprint.

Literally the only thing that makes administrating an OSx install base bearable.
What do you like best about the product?
Policy/profile authoring and scoping are easy and intuitive. Settings decently parallel their layout in the OS itself. Extension attributes and scripting mean you can accomplish pretty much anything.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a number of limitiations and idiosyncrasies due to the way Apple allows remote management that end up with clunky hacky solutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have actual control over remote mac users equipment...we can manage patching and security, have accurate inventory for the first time and its great :)
Not perfect, but good.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to deploy mass policies on a schedule.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cloud distribution point has many problems, especially trying to upload packages to it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick imaging, utilizing Self Service to cut down on service desk tickets. Automation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is the best option for managing Apple devices. No other product really comes close to it.
Time Saver
What do you like best about the product?
Can manage iPads and computers without even touching them or seeing them. What a time saver!!
What do you dislike about the product?
Glitches and things freezing..When we push apps out to iPads, it tends to freeze a lot and we have to send a blank push to each individual device, or update the Vpp A count apps and it seems to go after that. Is starting to get frustrating though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time saver. When things are working smoothly, we can push out several app to a lot of iPads efficiently and effectively.
JAMF Pro Review
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to manage our systems without worrying about the little things. With some minor settings and making some minimum configurations, we were able to quickly get a whole view of our environment. This allowed us to target our resources on what we wanted to manage.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only dislike would be the amount of documentation provided for how to complete some of the work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Patching and Maintenance of our systems. We have a more secure mac environment now that we can fully understand what is out there and are able to quickly make changes as needed. We can push OS and Application packages as soon as they are available, and Jamf Pro has allowed us quickly identify problem areas in some of our enterprise configurations
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get it now. If you manage any number of Mac's, from a small business to a large enterprise, you should be using this product.
