Jamf Now - questions about this with Intune

I need to manage 2 macs, our Windows devices are in Azure / Intune. I'm looking at Jamf as I've heard its the best solution for macs.

We only have 2 devices and a small business so was looking to use Jamf Now but have a few queries on this setup...

 

Does Jamf Now work with Intune, all the documentation points to Jamf Pro?

Why do you run Intune & Jamf? They both seem to be similar in what they do (encryption, policies, etc)

Is it viable to just use Intune when its just a few macs? One key thing is we want them to sign into macs using AzureAD accounts?

Authenticating via Azure AD w/ their Microsoft email will work if you decide to host the devices in Jamf Now. However if you only have a few Macs then keep them in Intune. No point in moving over to Jamf Now unless you want to take advantage of volume purchasing via ABM. Which will eventually lead you down the rabbit hold that I like to call Jamf Pro.
