Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, JAMF, VMware and others in Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM)."We can manage and standardize security across your environment, identify problems, receive alerts, and so on. That's its purpose, and that's also why it's so good."
"The policy and compliance monitoring of devices and the software deployment are most valuable."
"I believe that the solution is actually in Gartner's top quadrant at the moment for mobile device management."
"Its protection policies are most valuable. It protects mobile devices as well as individual apps. It is pretty scalable, and its documentation is also pretty good. It is also pretty straightforward to deploy."
"The ability to (somewhat) manage full Windows 10 computers including EXE-based or MSI-based application deployments using Azure Active Directory as Identity."
"It's normally able to meet 100% expectations of our customers."
"We can securely manage both company-owned devices and personal devices enrolled in our BYOD program."
"It allows our clients to have the confidence to centrally manage policies for security. It helps them in securing the organization from a technology aspect."
"The most important feature is Blackberry Work, for sure, because that is where you have email."
"It does support hardware and operating system configurations from every angle."
"The functionality with UEM and BlackBerry Works, the shared calendar, is a massive improvement for us."
"We can access emails within the active sync."
"It allows me to be able to access my email when I do not necessarily have my computer with me. I can also access my calendar when I am on public transport or outside of the office."
"The most important features would be instant messaging and the security that we get from the containerization."
"Access to the emails on the go was most valuable. Having access to your emails in a secure way is one of the most important features of this solution. Blackberry ensures data security, and as a user, I can use it while on roaming or wherever I am."
"It has a good ease of use, and its intuitive."
"The full API lets us write custom scripts and apps to enhance even further the end-user experience."
"If you want to manage macOS devices in your enterprise and want to make it as easy for the user as well as for the administrators, you should use the DEP with Jamf Pro."
"As an administrator, I really love the integration with Apple Business Manager."
"We have been able to keep our tech department lean and mean, maximizing our efficiency by utilizing Jamf to set up our iPads for us, rather than installing each app one at a time."
"The most valuable features are the restrictions, Lost Mode, Self Service, and full implementation of anything Apple will let MDM manage."
"The time that we save in hours for new deployments, redeployments, application upgrades and OS upgrades more than makes up for the cost of the product."
"Jamf has made it achievable for us to easily deploy & manage Apple devices anywhere in the world, without the need for hands-on assistance from IT staff."
"We can see every single Mac is on which macOS version so we can help users if needed to update their Macs to a saved and current version."
"Having a dedicated configuration server that assists in modifying the configuration service, and creating personalized structures, interfaces, and web services could enhance usability."
"It would be better if I could integrate it with my core group policy. I would like to have a group policy in my current environment, which has strict control, but those things are still missing. Although it has maximum compliance and security, it's not available on-premise."
"The Mac integration has room for improvement."
"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"Intune has limited integration with non-Microsoft solutions."
"It would help if administrators could pinpoint the exact location of a stolen device to help law enforcement retrieve it and apprehend the suspect."
"The solution could be improved by the opportunity to connect third-party application databases, such as Chocolatey or another setup store, to Intune."
"Microsoft Intune could improve by being more user-friendly and having it geared toward device management. The graphic interface is not very good."
"What we don't have at the moment is RDP from the device to some kind of PC. Another feature would be access to a delegate's mailbox and I think that is to come in one of the next releases. There have been a lot of requests for that type of feature where, for example, a secretary can access the mailbox of the boss."
"I know for the BlackBerry Connect, our users want to see more features, such as audio and video. I know the current version doesn't have that."
"I would like more support for Google Chromebook operating system, so I could manage it."
"The interface could be improved."
"The newest features sometimes pop in very slowly."
"It would be ideal if there was something for communication with Microsoft tools like Teams or Skype for Business, or perhaps even with Zoom for conference calls."
"It would be nice if there was an easier way for team members to get onboarded in regards to what they have to do on the device. There are some programs like Apple DEP and Samsung Knox. Unfortunately, with these programs, to get existing users onto them, you have to factory wipe your device. If it did not have the DEP capabilities, it would be nicer if it did not have so many steps to go through. That is our biggest complaint from team members. It has too many steps."
"More devices supported like iOS, Android, and API so it can support various platforms to enhance the experience."
"There should be an option for exporting the data for reporting purposes so that we can give that to the higher-ups, such as CIO. We should be able to see bar graphs and charts on different data points. It would be great to have a good reporting tool to look at, for example, data points of how many versions of Adobe Acrobat we have in our environment in a bar graph or pie chart. They don't have anything like that. There is an application called Tableau Reader, which does statistics, and you can put a statistical or analytical aspect in there to extract data and share it on a graph or a pie chart. Such a tool would be great."
"If it could do ticketing and non-Apple devices then that would be huge."
"Jamf does not go beyond Apple."
"The solution should offer beta testing for new products."
"The solution only makes sense if you have a lot of macOS products in your company."
"It would be great if we get an email notification when the Mac users install any apps, so IT can be alerted."
"There are known issues with the mobile configs that need to be fixed."
"The list of applications for patch management isn't sufficient."
