> Jamf Connect gives users the ability to access their Mac and their applications with a single identity — all without the need for multiple accounts or to bind to Active Directory. Supporting cloud-identity providers such as Okta, Microsoft Azure Active Directory, Google Cloud and Apple’s enrollment customization feature, Jamf Connect provides an improved user experience, during setup and day-to-day logins. Additional benefits include:&#10;&#10;- Improved login experience with a single set of credentials across your users’ cloud-identity provider and Mac. Jamf Connect extends this to cloud-identity providers and keeps them in sync indefinitely.&#10;&#10;- Organized Mac fleet for IT to manage — all users are consistently using their cloud-identity credentials (username and password) across their device and applications.&#10;&#10;- Multifactor authentication with each and every login, ensuring the right person is on the right machine.&#10;&#10;Security vulnerabilities are everywhere. And in today’s remote working world, where employees are logging in from unsecure networks or an unauthorized user gets their hands on devices, security concerns are at an all-time high. Because Jamf Connect requires a cloud-identity username and password, IT admins are able to monitor who is accessing their devices, leverage cloud admin permissions to service machines, and maintain security and compliance standards across all devices and users.&#10;&#10;- Admins have the ability to track and monitor what devices are being accessed, from where and by whom.&#10;&#10;- Ability to create multiple IT admin accounts that can leverage cloud-identity provider (IdP) permissions to log in as an admin to any machine, eliminating the security risk of having one static IT account.&#10;&#10;- Admins can enforce password policies via the IdP, maintaining consistency and security of devices and users.&#10;&#10;Having multiple logins and passwords across Mac can detract from a user’s experience and productivity. Jamf Connect eliminates this hassle by leveraging a single identity to unlock everything a user needs to get the job done. Ensure your users’ cloud-identity passwords are synchronized down to the local account level on the Mac, even when the password is changed.&#10;&#10;Once a user signs on with a single set of credentials, Jamf Connect will:&#10;&#10;- Synchronize passwords between the cloud-identity provider and the local Mac account.&#10;&#10;- Make it easy to report on which cloud-identity accounts are being used on each machine.&#10;&#10;With Jamf Connect, simplify your job and the login process for your users while keeping them secure.

## Reviews

### "Dead simple with Azure" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *9 September 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Set up was very fast and easy\!&#10;Very configurable. &#10;Easy support.
> 
> **Cons**: You have to pay for on boarding it but I could have done it with just the documentation.

-----

### "Its not perfect (yet)" — 4.0/5

> **John** | *24 August 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: In a post COVID-19 world, we had to come up with a way to deploy laptops to people and get them logged in off VPN. Jamf Connect has answered that call and made our lives easier.
> 
> **Cons**: The application can often be buggy and sometimes regardless of the configuration, Jamf Connect misbehaves. These aren't deal breakers, but for a premium product, I expect premium experience.

-----

### "Initial setup of connect" — 4.0/5

> **Joseph** | *19 August 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We tested it and it worked well syncronizing passwords as well as changing passwords externally but we are having an issue setting up with our AD using the authentication method provided.
> 
> **Cons**: Our set up seems to be different from the norm. We were  set loose to figure this authentication from Azure ourselves. Keep in mind our AD configuration of using a child domain is giving up troubles.
> 
> Not good as of yet but we are excited to get it working.

-----

### "Streamlined provisioning and much happier support techs" — 4.0/5

> **Todd** | *9 September 2021* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This has moved us much closer to zero touch deployment and allowed the majority of our company to work fully remote from all across the US during the covid pandemic. Our IT workflows for onboarding and account provisioning have been forever improved.
> 
> **Cons**: Patch management can be a little confusing and we will be limited if we ever need to add Windows ir Android machines to our environment
> 
> Great support and easy to implement, in a company that has frown from 100 to 2000 employees in the past 2 years, this has solved most of our IT problems.

### "The missing piece" — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *19 August 2021* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Jamf Connect is very easy to deploy, within a few hours we had a usable POC in use. They've made an effort to allow branding and shaping of the user experience within Jamf Connect and it shows. No more headaches stemming from binding to ActiveDirectory.
> 
> **Cons**: The end user experience takes a bit to get used to, new users frequently complain about having to enter their password three times (FileVault pre-boot screen, Jamf Connect MS Azure prompt, and again to their local account) when they restart their Macs.
> 
> Thanks to Active Directory we struggled for years to reach a zero touch deployment model. Jamf Connect solved this within the span of an afternoon. We're now able to hand an employee a brand new, unopened, Mac and trust that they'll be able to power it on and be logged in within a few minutes.
