JumpCloud® serves organizations from small to medium enterprises to large scale multi-national corporations. JumpCloud also works closely with educational institutions, non-profits, and gov agencies.
Hotspot Shield VPN attracts users from around the world, of all ages, looking to remove restrictions online and browse the internet securely and anonymously.
We were looking for a tool to help us enforce 2FA on some servers. JumpCloud was a solution that was easy to use, easy to manage, and perfectly fit our needs.
I realize I was stuck in 2010, resulting in an unhealthy relationship with Microsoft Active Directory.
We are using JumpCloud as central directory, for SSO, for device and user management and partially MDM functionality. We love the support service, their incredibly enthusiastic and helpful staff.
The small businesses that I work with have from 3 to 10 PCs, but usually no server. JumpCloud provides the missing centralized user account control.
It has been awesome to know I can track staff, device but not use active directory. It's only took a few days to learn the software and the documentation has been awesome.
It is a little difficult to onboard new office staff and familiarize them with the software.
A great way for me as an IT professional to help smaller businesses get onto a stable platform for properly managing their users and devices, with room to expand as their companies grow.
MDM is currently limited in functionality, and the System Insights still require command-line input to gather detailed information.
It's a great product if you are living in a country with restrictions on certain websites. It also provides a greater security as your actions are not traced.
As this app opens the content which is limited due to geographical limits, I am worried that this app also opens the website with viral content which can damage my phone.
It's very easy to use and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for free or cheap VPN software but still has good quality.
Recently, it's not connecting properly. The connection failures should be looked into.
With its excellent connection speeds, useful Netflix unblocking power, Hotspot Shield has the ability to make you want to fall in love with it. Simple interface and easy to navigate.
Disconnections can be a problem if you are using the regular version, but I guess that is the nature of VPN's.
The VPN in this software it´s absolutely useful, i really like that is easy to use and i really like that everybody can understand it.
I didn't have any problems when it connects. The only problem sometimes is to connect to a server.
Layton: Hi, I'm Layton. I'm a help desk associate, and I would give JumpCloud five stars. Click below for more ratings. On a day-to-day basis, I use JumpCloud to manage our active directory system through Linux, Windows, and Mac environments. One of the biggest features I like about JumpCloud is how you can seamlessly manage your Google workspace admin portal while also taking control of Windows, Mac, and Linux devices all in one application. One thing I do wish JumpCloud had was a more seamless integration with Apple Business Manager. I do wish that we were able to integrate our company iPads and iPhones within the JumpCloud software.
