Focused on improving patch control while identity integration has supported secure macOS automation
I had AWS cloud configuration with Jamf Pro at Cognizant, but the organization prefers licensed-based SaaS operations instead of maintaining instances. In some banking sectors, if Jamf Pro completes its security audits and SOC audits, they also prefer cloud options. Ultimately, Jamf Pro runs its instance on AWS. Jamf Pro's inventory management contributes to lifecycle management and procurement decisions depending on the organization. Lifecycle management is straightforward with Jamf Pro, as it records all information. Admins can guide device training flows easily, integrating with ServiceNow for additional customization and updates through APIs. The main benefits I see from using Jamf Pro depend heavily on the admin's configuration and the organization. For a dynamic MDM solution for macOS, I always recommend Jamf Pro. Conversely, identities from other providers offer essential functions too. Organizations can manage macOS devices cost-effectively with Intune for basic needs.

Optimizing digital presence with customizable design and seamless integration
The main benefits that Liferay Digital Experience Platform brings to the table are numerous. First is rapid application development and many features. Features such as content management and document management make your life easy; workflow management is also present. Workflow can be designed and derived. Form development and everything is very smooth and easy to deliver to the end customer, and you can find many features in one box. You have blogs, wikis, and everything with out-of-box functionality. My experience with actionable insights is positive; they help in refining content strategies. The content creation is helpful. For external content creation, I use headless CMS APIs for Liferay Digital Experience Platform, and headless APIs for content creation are also available. My thoughts on the integration capabilities are that integration is seamless. You have headless APIs where you can integrate seamlessly with any other application such as LDAP or SSO, or you can also integrate with different external systems. You have an SAP connector; everything is available. Liferay Digital Experience Platform's open source flexibility has helped in customizing functionalities for the specific needs of my customers as it is a highly flexible application that can be optimized. My advice for other organizations considering Liferay Digital Experience Platform is that if it's available, we need to improve on the performance, which is currently what we are seeing. Otherwise, earlier Service Builder was acceptable. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Liferay Digital Experience Platform a 9.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Things that would have taken us weeks in the past now take us mere minutes."
"I am most excited about a feature that is called User-Initialed Enrollment."
"We found the initial setup to be simple."
"As an administrator, I really love the integration with Apple Business Manager."
"With this 1:1 experience for students, learning and engagement are at an all-time high for our district."
"We consider Jamf Pro to be "best of breed" for enterprise Mac management."
"The most valuable features are the restrictions, Lost Mode, Self Service, and full implementation of anything Apple will let MDM manage."
"Jamf Pro has positively impacted my organization by being better for rolling out iPads and Macs; it would be the best in terms of rolling out the updates, apps, and even setting up a device."
"As of now, the technology is up-to-date and fulfills all essential requirements."
"Liferay was mainly selected by me due to its collaboration and the digital features that help to make the digital platforms very strong for the customers."
"You can create and manage dozens of sites with a single installation of Liferay, without a single line of Java code."
"The most valuable feature is management and permissions according to user, role, and group."
"It is just awesome; you should experience DXP."
"Flexibility to fit our business requirements under many different scenarios, from simple public web sites to customer or distributor portal solutions and intranets."
"We like Likeray because it's a secure platform."
"I usually see this platform as a Swiss Army Knife for building new features."
 

Cons

"Jamf Pro currently is only used on Mac computers and could improve by having compatibility with other operating systems. We have to use other tools to manage our Windows and Android devices. There could be other improvements but I am still exploring and learning more about the features."
"The biggest area for improvement is the price and the structure of Jamf's onboarding process, especially the mandatory JumpStart consultation, which can be costly for small organizations."
"Every once in a blue moon, we wind up with a rarely-seen superbug that takes support weeks to months to solve."
"The cheaper Jamf School is also a product that has been acquired and decked out to meet more educational needs for a good price. Some features of Jamf School aren't (yet?) available in Jamf Pro and for educational users/customers of Jamf Pro, it would beneficial to have these available in the Pro version too."
"It would be nice to be able to search smart groups and/or filter them."
"The dashboard needs to be customizable."
"It would be amazing if they would give Apple TV management its own space in Jamf Pro and not just mix it in with devices."
"We would really like to be able to separate managed computers by the role they're used for, but Jamf Pro only has limited functionality for this with the "sites" feature."
"There are several areas that need improvement: The core code base needs refactoring."
"Documentation is an issue and needs to be improved."
"Documentation for the newly launched version is not up to the mark."
"Although it has been improving, I cannot shake the feeling that it was released too early."
"Liferay does currently lack a good integrated analytics package, automation, and filtering."
"We tried the 'eat your own dog food' approach and used Liferay for our company's website, but Liferay just isn't meant to build websites."
"The development license might be too costly for small to medium-sized businesses."
"Its SSL-based client authentication support needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Don’t go into a sales call without knowing all the details of your system because Jamf has a ton of tools outside of Jamf Pro to offer and knowing them ahead of time is a must."
"Depending on how much support you require, it might make sense to add that to the licensing agreement."
"JumpStart looks a little bit pricey; however, it is worth every penny."
"JumpStart is available at an additional cost."
"The price of a training pass for five people was $18,000 USD."
"It would be beneficial if it could be reduced slightly."
"The setup cost is in the training, which is the most important step of your journey."
"Setup and licensing prices are getting to be too high."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive. What Liferay Digital Experience Platform offers at its current price can be considered something that is worth the money."
"It's an open-source structure. Other costs are for professional services to integrate Liferay to other existing systems."
"It is a bit expensive."
"Their pricing model should be modified to include per user options instead of just servers/cores, etc."
"Licensing costs can be very expensive."
