Just wanted to leave this outdated table for reference purposes as to what kind of things might be good to track for MDM services:

Anyone using Mosyle? I've been thinking about making the switch to them.

Add Symantec's Altiris too...I don't think it does any of the MDM stuff (profiles), which limits functionality, but if the environment is already established for Windows, or you need a holistic CMDB, it would have a place.

Has anyone done a comparison on Mosyle?

How about Rippling? It's not just for Mac or IT management but also does PC and Human Resources automation as well.

I just learned about Mosyle from a friend/colleague of mine this morning. Has some nice dashboards and some interesting features for K-12 education. But from what I've read, it seems to be slow and frustrates a lot of admins.

I'm not in edu, but I'll still stick with Jamf!

Airwatch needs to be updated too - it's now known as Workspace ONE

Probably an impossible ask, because of the time and resources it would take to compile the data, but I would love to see a product to tech debt document. Meaning, what sort of manual labors does it take to use the products day to day. I doubt anyone has time to spend at minimum a few months with each product and then go through the ins and outs of it, but would be a very interesting read.

Hi together,

I changed the file to be edited by everyone now. So feel free to add your information :)

As someone who has stood up Jamf systems at 3 universities and been through the purchase/decision process each time, a good comparison site is definitely something that is needed in this space. My employers each had either a legal or procedural obligation to compare Jamf with competing MDM products, and I was the one who did most of the legwork in that process. One of the lessons I have learned is that if you can get access to their reports, Gartner and Forrester both do a good job of providing the overview and comparison. You'll save yourself a lot of effort if you can either use your search engine skills to get their reports or convince your employer to pay for them.

Thoughts on the 2019 Gartner report? My question is why did others score higher in certain areas over Jamf? And I have trialed the other product and i'm left scratching my head on how the others could get a higher rating then Jamf. Do we know if they included Jamf Connect?

Anyone know what used to be in I1? And what's up with N1 while we're at it?

Could someone create Tabs for macOS and iOS and compare the MDMs?

We are currently trying to convince my higher ups the increased cost in jamf is worth it for iOS compared to Intune

Would really like to see Mosyle on there, surprised it isn't yet. I don't know enough about it to add, but we're definitely eyeballing moving that way.

Any chance someone could update this with information about Mosyle and kandji?
