We performed a comparison between Ivanti Avalanche and Jamf Pro based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"At the moment, Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"Stable solution at a good price."
"The conditional access policies that we set up are very useful."
"Compliance and the policies that can be set are the most valuable features."
"I would say the biggest benefit is the single-pane view. There's no jumping around multiple UI's to do your overall management."
"It's easy to manage."
"Intune is effective because of the configuration management and endpoint security it provides. The graphical interface makes it easier to configure and deploy devices."
"The terminal remediation feature is valuable."
"The most useful feature of Avalanche is remote control — especially the ability to remotely install packages to many devices all at once. When the client has, for example, 100 devices needing updates, it would take far too long to update each device individually. But with Avalanche, we just connect to all the devices through the PC and send the updates out with one click."
"Installing the packages remotely and remote control are the most valuable features. There are around 100 pieces or devices, and the only way to send a package to a device is by connecting to the PC and then manually sending the package. By using Avalanche, we can send a package to all devices with one click. It is very stable and easy to use. Their technical support is also very good. We have implemented this solution for our clients, and they are satisfied with this solution. It does what it is meant to do."
"It is a very easy-to-manage and granular policy-based solution. Policies that you can create per device per user behavior are the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Avalanche are the remote control and the file transfer."
"The solution is easy to work with. I like its stability and flexibility."
"My team use this solution to provide end-to-end support on our managed Mac fleet. This includes doing OS updates and upgrades, application deployments, configuration settings and outlining."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to apply apply granular level restrictions to our machines, making them easy to manage remotely from the backend."
"Patch management and associated policies help us manage and update our fleet's software."
"As an administrator, I really love the integration with Apple Business Manager."
"I found that automated enrollment is very powerful because you can bring standardization to the environment."
"We were able to dramatically enhance our cybersecurity, and better support our users."
"The action and trigger is the main thing for us. We like the kind of repetitive script which we can use there."
"The DEP enrollment is quite good. We're planning to migrate to the Jamf cloud this month."
"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded."
"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"The solution could improve its flexibility."
"There are a few security features that are not available in Microsoft Intune, when compared to other products."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"Sometimes, customers compare it with AirWatch, but the concept of Intune is different from other solutions. It's an application management app. It gets a bit difficult to explain it to customers, but it's not a product limitation. It takes a presale document or presentation to explain it to customers."
"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"In future releases, I would like to see more automation or bringing in AI into to understand device behavior."
"The tool's stability could be better."
"Because our clients are all very satisfied with Ivanti from their side, there is little I can say about room for improvement. However, I think that to stay competitive with other solutions offering a similiar solution, Ivanti could look into making their products more affordable."
"There is a lack of flexibility."
"The solution can improve by adding a kiosk mode option to the devices."
"Its price could be improved. It could be cheaper. I would like to see a better approach for Android and an easy way to send packages and manage devices."
"Jamf does not go beyond Apple."
"If it could do ticketing and non-Apple devices then that would be huge."
"I think that there should also be more integrations with Jamf that could better the intelligence-gathering when making business decisions."
"The product is pretty good as-is, but if anything could be improved I would say the UI could perhaps be a bit simpler. A mobile app to complement the web-based version, to perform specific tasks, would be nice to have - a good example of what I mean is the "Pulseway" MDM for Windows, they have a very useful and user-friendly mobile app."
"I would like to be able to see what policies and configuration profiles are tied to what Smart/Static groups."
"Inventory reporting could be better, however, that is already slated to improve with some of the new features Apple has announced in WWDC 2022."
"This solution would benefit from more focus on Self Service, such as Office 365 and GSuite integration."
"The reporting with PowerBI could be improved."
