About

AppleScript is a scripting language created by Apple. It allows users to directly control scriptable Macintosh applications, as well as parts of macOS itself. You can create scripts, and sets of written instructions, to automate repetitive tasks, combine features from multiple scriptable applications, and create complex workflows. AppleScript 2.0 can use scripts developed for any version of AppleScript from 1.1 through 1.10.7, any scripting addition created for AppleScript 1.5 or later for macOS, and any scriptable application for Mac OS v7.1 or later. A scriptable application is one that can be controlled by a script. For AppleScript, that means being responsive to inter-application messages, called Apple events, sent when a script command targets the application. AppleScript itself provides a very small number of commands, but it provides a framework into which you can plug many task-specific commands, those provided by scriptable applications and scriptable parts of macOS.

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.
