A cloud-based revolution for education

Education institutions increasingly rely on technology to support operations, facilitate learning and enhance collaboration among students and faculty. Integrating Studentnet's Cloudwork® PlatformID™ with Jamf Pro and Jamf Connect revolutionizes how educational environments operate with Apple's platform SSO.

Let's look at the main benefits of this integration.

1. Simplified access management

With the integration of Cloudwork® PlatformID™, educational institutions can streamline access to various applications and resources for students, administrators and staff.

Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality eliminates the need for multiple login credentials, simplifying the user experience and reducing password fatigue.

Whether accessing learning management systems, productivity tools or collaborative platforms, users can seamlessly navigate between applications with a single set of credentials.

2. Heightened security measures

Ensuring the security of sensitive data and resources is paramount in schools.

By integrating Cloudwork® PlatformID™ with Jamf Pro and Jamf Connect, institutions can enforce robust authentication protocols and access controls.

Centralized user management allows for efficient provisioning and de-provisioning of user accounts, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches. With enhanced visibility and control over user activities, administrators can uphold compliance standards and safeguard confidential information.

3. Enhanced device management

Jamf capabilities empower educational institutions to manage their fleet of Apple devices with ease. By integrating with Cloudwork® PlatformID™, administrators can:

  • Seamlessly authenticate users and enforce access policies across iPads, Macs and iPhones
  • Streamline device enrollment and configuration
  • Simplify app deployment processes

Ensure that students and admin have access to the resources they need, whenever they need them. From classroom instruction to remote learning initiatives, administrators can orchestrate device management operations with no fuss, maximizing productivity.

4. Streamlined collaboration

Collaboration lies at the heart of effective teaching and learning experiences.

With Cloudwork® PlatformID™ integration, educational institutions can promote seamless collaboration among students, faculty and staff.

Whether collaborating on group projects, sharing resources or participating in virtual classrooms, users can access collaborative tools with minimal effort. All without the hassle of juggling multiple logins.

This encourages a dynamic and interactive learning environment, where ideas can be exchanged freely, and teamwork flourishes.

5. Cost-efficiency and scalability

By consolidating access management and device management workflows, institutions can:

  • Achieve cost savings and operational efficiencies
  • Scale their infrastructure in alignment with evolving needs and growing user bases
  • Accommodate seasonal fluctuations in enrollment
  • Expand digital learning initiatives

Cloudwork® PlatformID™’s integration with Jamf provides the flexibility and scalability required to support institutional growth and innovation.
