Pros

“Allows for timely updates to OS across all our employees devices, and helped us keep track of and have the ability to lock down a machine if lost or stolen.”
RY

Rich Y.

CTO

“Very flexible blueprints for our Mac network - allows me to customise a range of use cases from a large pre-built library, plus add my own custom items.”
GH

Garth H.

Director

“One of the key strengths for us was the ability to assign permissions based on our RBAC roles, allowing appropriate access across the team while maintaining governance and security.”
CV

Chaz V.

Infrastructure Engineer

Cons

“Some warning messages are not describing the actual issue: e.g. if a user tries to install an app themselves on a MacBook, using a .DMG file (which is basically forbidden in our case), there's no error, but a warning regarding the non-encryption of the mounted disk.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Alain F.

Sr. Software and Security Engineer

“The inability to assign smart groups to library items, the lack of blueprint routing, and the absence of options to clear specific tags or reset a device to a default blueprint when deleted are known limitations.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Felix T.

System Administrator

“Occasionally we have issues with vulnerability alerts not clearing correctly after patches have been applied.”
RO

Richard O.

Director of Platform and Security

Cons

“Floating licenses are problemmatic sometimes, blocking the user for some time when trying to log in from different IPs.”

“Configuration and asset management was hard to implement on a very large nationwide existing network. ”

“Upgrades and installs are the absolute worst! ”
