Pros

“Including what needs to be done on the Apple Business Manager site which looks complicated when you see the Apple guides.”

Chris C.

Management Accountant

“Ease of use, very easy to deploy apps, allows us to wipe the devices remotely if they get lost and just a dream to set up and work with.”

Marcus M.

I.T. Director

“Setup can be daunting but the help guides available are great and point you in the right direction. ”

Chris C.

Management Accountant

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.”

Rich Y.

CTO

“It gives us a clear overview of our devices in one place and makes it much easier to manage our inventory and keep track of company assets.”

Ramón N.

Office Manager

“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.”

Garth H.

Director

Cons

Cons

“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.”

Felix T.

System Administrator

“We don't like that we have to buy a second tool to fill this gap. If you are an experienced Mac Admin and have been using tools like Jamf for a long time, you might find it frustrating to use because it just does a lot of things automatically. If you like granular configurations, Iru's simplified approach takes some getting used to and comfortability with having less control.”

Joe C.

Sr. IT Manager

“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.”
