Matthew M.

Principal

“Used with my Chromebook, the software has provided me with a central location to work from during the pandemic which I know is safe and secure.”

David F.

Head of IT

Pros

“You can improve this if you deploy an MDM like Jamf or Intune to automate rules for updates if it won't make too many waves for your Org.”

Glen N.

IT Director

“It isn't my daily driver currently (Windows Admin is my daily) but it's simple and works well for my content creating users and I very rarely even need to do any troubleshooting to help with staff questions on using macOS because it is so easy to use.”

Glen N.

IT Director

“File management is easy and the UI is simple to learn the CLI is similar to Linux so savvy Admins and write shell scripts with a little practice.”

Glen N.

IT Director

Cons

“Its currently lacking kubernetes integration. ”

Jigar P.

Sr Devops Engineer

Cons

“The OS is not as intuitive as other systems and some people find it to be confusing especially when navigating files and other storage.”

Ryan B.

Manager

“Updates constantly nag away in the top right and most users in my experience don't want to apply them or Admins are scared of incompatibilities so they defer to not doing them so they just hand out there.”

Glen N.

IT Director

“It seems odd to me that given how long Apple have been making operating systems that some things have not been improved, for example sometimes having to drag the icon for a newly installed bit of software to the applications folder.”

Andy P.

Director
