Six reasons why ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus stands out over Jamf

An expansion-proof MDM offering

Jamf provides device management only for Apple products. This means that organizations might have to spend more on purchasing MDM tools when acquiring non-Apple products in the future. With ManageEngine, you can manage Apple, Android, Windows, and Chrome OS products, scaling device management beyond Apple’s ecosystem.
Lock down devices with advanced kiosk capabilities

Often, organizations need to lock down devices to only a set of approved apps in order to restrict access while still providing sufficient flexibility for maintaining productivity, like at schools or for manufacturing shop floors. Jamf only seems to provide the capability for single-app lockdown, while ManageEngine has multi-app lockdown, home screen customization, and even more comprehensive single-app lockdown features.
Remotely view iPad and iPhone screens

iPads are one of the most common devices provisioned in kiosks and educational institutions. These and iPhones share one common factor—end users who are not proficient enough to troubleshoot devices. That's why ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus provides the ability to remotely view the screens of iPads and iPhones natively, unlike Jamf.
Manage BYOD even with the free edition

Jamf does not provide BYOD management in its base edition for enterprises, Jamf Now. Organizations with a BYOD policy should keep this in consideration. ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus offers management of corporate and personal devices right from its free edition because we believe end-user privacy should not have a price tag associated with it.
Integrations for simplified workflows

Get the best of management and security without hampering employee productivity by leveraging a strong ecosystem empowered by over 200 apps built by ManageEngine and Zoho (the parent company of ManageEngine). Experience superior usability with one-click integrations that simplify workflows, even with third-party solutions!
More value with fewer complications

Managing MacBooks with Jamf costs about double the premium of managing iPhones and iPads with its Jamf Pro edition. If you would prefer to choose the base edition instead, then you’ll miss out on integration APIs and features like VPN configuration, which is important for remote work. ManageEngine offers simple pricing sans add-ons for device management.
