Verdict

Kandji offers a refreshingly streamlined and automated experience for managing Apple devices, making it a strong alternative to Jamf. Its use of pre-built 'Blueprints' and a library of over 150 security controls simplifies the process of configuring and securing a fleet of Macs.

What customers praise

The 'Liftoff' feature creates a polished and fully automated Mac setup experience for new employees, handling everything from app installation to security settings on first boot.

What customers criticise

As a newer, Apple-focused player, its integration options are more limited than established UEMs, and it lacks any support for Windows or Android devices.

Best for

IT teams that want a modern, automation-first approach to Apple device management without the complexity of Jamf Pro.
