Admin elevation request ability. Setup through config app or using a json Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Jamf Pro is incredibly powerful for managing Macs, iPhones, and iPads in enterprise environments. Zero-touch deployment works flawlessly with Apple Business Manager and identity integrations like Entra or Okta. The automation via Smart Groups, Policies, and the API makes day-to-day operations efficient. Great support and an active community are a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI can feel outdated and inconsistent at times. Bulk-editing configurations or managing admin roles could be more streamlined. Also, native Git integration for CI/CD workflows is missing and would be a huge improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very rarely, I’ve had to deactivate Jamf Connect and reinstall it to get a user back up and running, but aside from those rare cases, I’ve had no issues at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it handles a lot of the local, filevault and keychain management to ensure all passwords match across Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Syncing the password makes sense but I don’t see how it helps if the user forgets the local password prior to the re-sync for a password change Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The integration with the JAMF PRO MDM made this product seamless with existing device management. This made setup easy and the deployment went well. Jamf Connect having this integration made a complicated process, simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Troubleshooting JAMF Connect could be made easier with better logging and troubleshooting tools. Jamf connect also has some minor graphical bugs that will hopefully be patched out on later updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Each student can sit down at any computer running Jamf Connect and log on with their Entra ID credentials. It will create a local account for the student if one doesn't yet exist, and then sync their Entra ID password with the local account. The just-in-time account creation makes this product perfect in lab enviornments where you do not know ahead of time who will need to log onto the computer.

Another awesome feature is the ability to customize the login window completely. You can create a polished, professional, branded login window that really looks good. It's awesome to have the school's name and logo right there where everyone logs on.

Jamf provides a great utility to help you implement the product. It's very easy, especially if you also use Jamf Pro! If you don't have Entra ID, it can integrate with other identity providers such as Okta or Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only dislike I have with it (and this is not Jamf's fault, it's an Apple limitation) is if you have enabled FileVault, there will be two logins when you turn the computer on. You will first need to unlock the hard drive with the FileVault password, then enter your Entra ID credentials. It is for this reason that I mostly use it for lab environments or other shared desktops.

The double login only occurs after a restart, so it's not really that much of an inconvenience to be honest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In our institution, we have recently transitioned over to Jamf Connect as our way of logging in our users from our directory/databse. through this new integrations, we have moved away from binding our endpoints to a domain and use cloud-based directories to locate and apply users/policies. With the need of only an internet connection, users have a much easier login experience than before! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently Jamf connect can only identify users email address as their account name. This causes MacOS to name their home folder the email adress alias. We have priniting process we have in place it uses and different username/alias to charge their account print credit. Since Jamf connect applies email address to name the home folder automatically, the printing process tries to charge the email and not the users appropriate username.

Jamf Connect has allowed us to give our end-users brand-new Macs without my team having to touch the device ahead of time. This saves my team and our end users a lot of time. The setup of a new Mac for the end user is simple and we get very few help desk calls related to a new Mac deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting set up with Jamf Connect is not for the faint of heart. Thankfully, Jamf includes professional services to get the environment set up and there is a great support community at Jamf Nation and on the #jamfconnect channel at the MacAdmins Slack site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We evaluated Jamf Connect and found the domain login features to be helpful and convenient. Just in time account provisioning is such a great convenience and would allow us some better flexibility for loaner and shared workstations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having to login twice when FileVault is enabled is frustrating. Our biggest roadblock, however, was the cost. With Jamf Pro costs already having increased pretty significantly over the past few years, adding in the cost of Jamf Connect just wasn't feasible, as interested as we were in the product.
