The previous article recommended Jam Pro to you, so what specific management functions can Jamf Pro achieve? Let’s find out together.
MacOS:
Asset Management – Each managed device has detailed information within the Jamf Pro system, including device hardware information, system information, software information, user information, etc., and can export reports.
Content Distribution – Jamf Pro enables the distribution of software, plug-ins, drivers, printers, system or software configuration files, documentation, system updates, etc., which can be silently pushed to different users or groups of devices or installed by the user’s own choice.
Security Management – Client login password policy, file encryption, firmware encryption, external storage restriction, VPN setting, software restriction, remote locking, device wiping, etc. can be set.
Account Management – Create and delete accounts, reset account passwords.
Others – Execute commands or scripts, auto-bind domains, remote desktop, batch deployment, dynamic grouping, smart search, remote update, etc.
iOS.
Asset Management – Each managed device has detailed information within the Jamf Pro system, including device hardware information, system information, software information, user information, etc., and reports can be exported.
Content Distribution – Jamf Pro enables the distribution of App Store or in house App/eBooks, which can be installed automatically or by user’s choice for different users or device groups.
Security Management – Set client password policy, restrict app download sources, black and white list of runnable apps, configure VPN, restrict URLs, lock remotely, wipe remotely, turn on lost mode, update iOS remotely, and more.
iPad Classroom Management – iPad in the classroom can be used for Single App mode, opening specific web pages, screen tour, locking the device, casting the screen and other functions. With iPad classroom management, you can prevent students from running apps that are not related to the classroom teaching, which helps to improve students’ attention, help teachers to create a good classroom environment and order, and also maximise the use of time in the classroom.
Others – Disable App Deletion, Disable Password Change, Disable AirDrop, Disable Bluetooth Settings, Disable Device Name Change, Push WiFi Connection Settings, Modify Background, Modify App Arrangement, Clear Device Password, and so on.
The above listed are basically the needs that will be encountered in the daily management, and in the absence of MDM, to achieve all the management can only be done manually, the management difficulty and efficiency can be imagined.
In the next few articles, we will understand the convenience of managing Apple devices with Jamf Pro based on actual usage scenarios, which will make the management work easier than ever.
