For Information Technology, Jamf’s Collaboration with Microsoft Azure Carries Significance

This is due to the decision to offer Jamf Pro through Azure (both cloud and marketplace), allowing individuals familiar with utilizing Azure for the management and protection of Windows devices to now utilize Jamf for the management and safeguarding of Apple devices within the same well-known, consolidated ecosystem.

Beyond Windows

This extends past solely PCs. Numerous organizations depend on Microsoft’s foundational technologies and solutions, thus integrating Jamf into Azure will also simplify operations in that sphere.

In a way, this mirrors the sentiments expressed by the current CEO of Jamf, John Strosahl, when he mentioned to me last year: “Several organizations still rely on Windows applications and services, and we do provide assistance in various aspects such as network security and similar areas — elements that are more distant from the device. However, as you approach closer to the device, we strongly believe that Apple represents the future.”
