Not directly related to Jamf, but for those of you working in Colleges and Universities, what are the benefits of managed Apple IDs for your users? This is via SSO/Federation in Apple School Manager.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I am not EDU, but we have found very few uses for Managed AppleID's.

Thanks for your insight @AJPinto. I also heard back from our Apple Sr. Engineer. He said essentially for Colleges if you can avoid Managed Apple IDs, then avoid them. He said there are one or two instances where they can be beneficial to a College system, but we (specifically) were not meeting the criteria for that.

Hello,
I support K-12. We use MAIDs primarily for the following purposes.
1) We provide the iPads and enroll them through DEP, so the iPads are supervised. Thus we can disable account changes after the MAID is signed in. Good for K-12.
2) When students are logged in with a MAID, their photos are backed up so their next iPad will have them, and in case they break their iPad.
3) 200 GB of space!
4) It is easy to assign paid apps and pull them back.
For higher ed, I'm assuming you are BYOD? I agree I don't think there are any real advantages.
thanks,
chris
