What users say
“Jamf makes Apple device management seamless, offering powerful tools for remote deployment, configuration, and compliance. It saves time for IT operations.”
“Jamf Pro is a powerful tool when it comes to manage Apple devices, whether they are laptops or mobile phones/tablets. It offers all sorts of controls and streamlines deployment of Configuration Profiles or Policies.”
“I would still say that Jamf Pro's automated patch management requires development and improvement. Sometimes deployment fails without clear visibility for both users and admins, which still needs improvements.”
