We performed a comparison between Jamf Pro and Kandji based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about JAMF, Microsoft, Kandji and others in Mobile Device Management (MDM)."The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."
"The device profiling which uses the official Outlook email enabled us to control the screenshot feature and prevent copying outside of the organization's application."
"I like the tool's integration with Apple. Anyone who creates an ID in Intune will get an Apple ID."
"For our office workers who are not based in Norway, when we order the PC, we can do some of the settings for them. These are standardized settings. We can set them up exactly as they are in Norway so that they're the same."
"The most valuable feature for us is the security, including risk analysis and patch management."
"The biggest benefits of Intune are the ability to push changes and the added security. When we moved forward with Defender, we onboarded all those machines automatically. That helps dramatically. For a while, we were left with machines that weren't protected. We could see where people had done things they shouldn't have done, and Defender saved our skins a few times. It didn't happen a lot, but it happened enough that it made us glad we made that decision."
"The best feature is that we don't need to worry about downtime. We don't need to worry about the network connections of our office or the virtual private network. Everything is being done through the internet. Using Intune Autopilot, we can configure and deploy everything to the devices."
"Microsoft's cloud comes with a lot of extra features that are free of charge."
"It is a great tool. Its ease of use is fantastic. It is very simple, and you don't really have a high learning curve with this."
"We were able to dramatically enhance our cybersecurity, and better support our users."
"The ease of use and access allows us to manage all of our devices collaboratively."
"I can set policies to manage devices by many variables OR keep it simple by leveraging DEP to assign new devices the standard apps."
"There is also zero-day support to all new Apple OS."
"The full API lets us write custom scripts and apps to enhance even further the end-user experience."
"The Automated Device Enrolment is great!"
"From the reviews that we are getting, the feedback from the client, the tool is very good on the Jamf side - especially for the Macs."
"It's a very easy plug-and-play solution where you can just enroll the devices and choose the features you want."
"It just doesn't handle software updates well at all by itself. You need to be a scripting wizard to make those happen properly, or you use third-party tools. The Windows feature updates are very difficult to implement. I would like to see a proprietary built-in remote control tool. I know that they have Team Viewer integrated, but it is not seamless. It would be nice if they had a seamless remote desktop capability directly from the Intune console."
"More integration with monitoring tools is needed."
"It's the granularity: 'Is your firewall on? Is BitLocker on?' It's not amazing granularity. But I've looked into other products, like Duo, and they're all similar."
"It needs certificate provisioning for S/MIME purposes."
"It would be better if they can reduce the cost of the license."
"There can be some added features, such as an improved dashboard. Any new feature that could be a benefit to our customers would be good."
"There could be more wizard-driven policy development or creation. Some of the policies can get quite complex. If they have a wizard that assists the administrators in creating the policy, that will be a great job."
"An issue we have run into with Microsoft Endpoint Manager is that we cannot patch third-party products like Adobe and Chrome with it."
"I would love to see an integrated ticketing system built-in, better reporting templates to help analyze the data (software usage, etc.), and integration with FREE SSL Cert (letsencrypt.org) with auto-renewal."
"I think it would be best if Jamf had support tiers."
"The integrated patch feature is good but needs some tweaking."
"We had some issues with its integration with other products, such as Intune. There were some issues with the way you have to register your device into Intune."
"The patch management needs improvement in Jamf Pro."
"I would like to see improved integration of some of the additional tools that users create within Jamf itself."
"The new remote support tool is still lacking features compared to other industry solutions."
"An in-house chat room would be a great way to communicate with your team when you aren't physically present with them."
"Kandji should give open customization."
