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.
Organizations using any or all of these: Windows Active Directory, Azure AD, and file servers (including NetApp, EMC, Synology, Hitachi and Huawei).
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.
The simplicity of this product is fantastic. Its on of the easiest and most simple piece of software to use with the most effective results.
It fails more often than not and the upgrade instructions listed on ManageEngine's website has inaccurate data (lists the wrong batch files to use, etc).
From a user perspective I am very happy and believe I will be able to make lots of improvements based on audit results, and the HR team are happy that they can audit what they need to see too.
Some of the upgrades are a bit of a pain due to services, and it's hard to install multiple products on the same server due to port usage and service installations.
Overall ManageEngine Audit Plus gives you a great AD Admin and Audit experience. I would love to recommend it.
The upgrade process is the worst thing I've ever seen in a software product.
Creating alerts as per ones requirement is the best feature like ransomware, of this app, one can get information on any change that is made in files or folders.
The software's update procedure is error prone. It runs in Java and not all updates are succesful.
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.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
