Reduce the load on your IT and security teams with pre-built commands for enforcing Windows updates, managing device configurations, and resolving issues — from helpdesk tickets to security events.

All you have to do is activate it.

About

Formerly known as Casper Suite, Jamf Pro is an enterprise mobility management (EMM) tool for Apple macOS and iOS devices. Jamf Pro includes a host of features that helps to simplify device deployment, analyze inventory data, and respond to security threats easily: - Choose a zero-touch, hands-free experience or go hands-on through imaging. Either way, enroll devices and deploy them with ease. - Go beyond configuration profiles and use policies and scripts to customize devices for the optimal user experience. - Purchase apps in bulk and make them available automatically or through a Self Service catalog. - Manage device settings and configurations, restrict malicious software, and patch all of your Apple devices without user interaction. Jamf Pro works seamlessly with your existing IT services and technologies, including: Apple Business Manager, Active Directory, SSO/SAML, SCCM, APIs, Cisco ISE, Security Connector and Fast Lane, Conditional Access for Mac.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Very secure and lots of tools in place to ensure that MDM remains in place, even for those who might wish to remove it in an enterprise or education environment.

Cons

  • When working with Apple products, they must be managed devices in order to ensure MDM remains in place.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • When I was working at one of the national energy laboratories, we used Jamf to help keep all the Mac OS devices' software and operating systems up to date. We didn't like to automatically update to the latest OSes because sometimes the new releases aren't that stable and certain scientific equipment only worked with older versions, but with Jamf that was not an issue.
  • JAMF had tons of tools to properly secure devices on our network and also make it easier for users when deploying new devices.

Cons

  • For whatever reason I still needed to code up a custom AppleScript to handle some software customizations that Jamf couldn't, or to get all the serial numbers of certain devices on a specific software version. I assume this was because Jamf couldn't do that easily, but maybe it could and my boss just didn't know better?
  • Expensive is really the only downside but our customer had the money so it was a moot point.
