    Well suited : AirDroid's bulk enrollment and policy management features make it highly effective for large-scale device deployment and management. The remote control and troubleshooting capabilities of AirDroid MDM facilitate quick problem resolution without physical intervention. AirDroid allows for secure containerization of work-related data on personal devices, ensuring the separation of personal and professional use. Not suited: AirDroid Business is designed for general mobile device management and may not cater to highly specialized device types or industries. For organizations with minimal IT capabilities, a simpler MDM solution with more streamlined features might be a better fit.

    Well suited for any organization that wants to manage apple products. It's extremely easy to integrate and has many connectors for existing enterprise infrastructure applications. Certificate management is a breeze. Not so suited for smaller businesses that only have 10-20 devices. Jamf has another product called JAMF Now that would suffice for those areas.

    • Jamf Pro's Self Service is a great mechanism for making software available to end uses as they need it.
    • Jamf Pro is also great for creating plans called PreStage Enrollments that allow for computers to skip many of the setup screens, as well as automating account creation.
    • Jamf Pro in combination with Apple Automated Device Enrollment (formerly DEP) allows for devices to supervised and managed, this combination allows for locking, remote wipe of devices, and finding locations of devices when put into lost mode.

    • Training options are terrific, but costly.
    • Finding what you need in Jamf Pro can be tough at times. The interface is not what I would call friendly.
    • You'll need static credentials for Jamf Pro. They don't integrate with the Jamf Account, and it doesn't offer 2FA. SSO is an option, but it's not simple to set up.

    We stepped away and are looking at different products that integrate with our entire fleet MDM solution rather than focusing specifically on Apple products. An all in one solution fits our needs better and is more cost-effective in the long run. Jamf Pro needs to improve some features and support but overall its a good product.

    Jamf Pro has done pretty much anything we've needed with little setup headache. If we hit a wall, the Jamf user community and tech support departments both are more than willing to help solve problems. Tech support is excellent, but the surprising thing is the user base is by far the biggest resource. Jamf users love to help each other, by directly chatting about issues, posting best practices, or just posting info on the forums.

    Jamf Support is very responsive and usually assists in any challenge we are tackling. They are also very transparent when they are allowed to be. I personally love our Jamf Pro support rep and don't fear messaging their support team.

    The training session was beneficial because it expanded my knowledge about Jamf products and really learn what I am capable of doing with Jamf Pro in terms of managing Apple computers and devices. Immediately after the training course, I was able to implement what I learn to our cloud instance.

    Migration from an existing MDM requires device wipe and reenroll for full supervision of the device. It's somewhat painful. User enrollment makes things easier, but you miss out on full management.

    AirDroid Business is known for being easy to use and works with Android, iPhone, and Windows devices. It's particularly good at letting IT staff fix device problems remotely. It's also budget-friendly, making it a good choice for smaller companies.
    On the other hand, Microsoft Intune works well with other Microsoft products like Office 365 and Windows. It's super secure and has many features. It's really great if most of the devices in a company use Windows. So, if a company wants an easy-to-use solution that works with many different devices, AirDroid Business is a good choice. But if a company already uses many Microsoft products and needs top-notch security, then Microsoft Intune might be the better pick. We decided with AirDroid because we have more Android devices compared to Microsoft OS Devices.

    Even thought we are using this solutions for different purposes (macOS device management VS mobile device management), I think at the end Jamf Pro is more focused or aimed for macOS management, and mobile device management is just a good addition to that. Same I can tell about Ivanty, is more about iOS/Android management rather than macOS

    • Jamf Pro has allowed us to minimize the time it takes to deploy devices. We can use zero-touch deployment methodologies which allow devices to go directly to end users and allow end users to get up and running without needing IT's help.
    • We have implemented both a third-party & macOS patching service, which allows us to ensure all apps and versions of macOS are updated and secure.
