Pros

“You can deploy Apps form Apple Business and can remotely install them on the iPad´s. If you need to change the Wifi Password, you can just add the new Password in jamf now and distribute it to all devices which need it.”

“You see all your Devices in one Dashboard, see when they last connected to jamf and what iOS Version is installed atm.”

Pros

“I can control most endpoint management tasks from one centralized portal — patching, software deployment, asset tracking, and remote troubleshooting all live under a single console.”
MZ

Mohamed Z.

System Administrator

“We found that if workstation has agent from "previous installation" (for example, from some historical not cleaned PoC) and there is no "previous" Endpoint Central server available - the only option is to gather data using special tool, send it to support and receive specific cleaning tool, otherwise you can't install "current" agent.”
II

Ilya I.

Cybersecurity Implementation Expert

“The automation features significantly reduce repetitive tasks, and the remote troubleshooting tools are especially valuable in managing distributed environments. Although the interface and advanced configurations may take some time to get familiar with, the overall performance and feature set make it a reliable endpoint management solution.”
