History is full of examples of technology becoming more valuable when combined or integrated with a complementary solution. Let's call this a "pairing," similar to a combination of great food and wine that elevates the dining experience.
A great technology pairing can elevate the user experience and achieve outcomes that might not have been possible before they were used together. The pairing between Apple and Adobe helped transform graphics design across many industries for over 30 years. If you are either a graphic design professional or a hobbyist, chances are you are using Adobe Photoshop and a MacBook Pro.
So how to improve on the power of Jamf?
As a Jamf professional, you already know how Jamf can manage and secure the full lifecycle of your Apple devices and applications across your entire ecosystem.
But beyond your Apple assets, the IT landscape of most organizations is quite heterogeneous and diverse. You may have datacenter systems from multiple vendors using different operating systems and virtualization technologies. And running on those systems can be countless enterprise applications including human capital management (HCM), enterprise resource planning (ERP), IT service management (ITSM), customer relationship management (CRM) and many more, all of which need to be managed and secured.
But wait…your organization has embraced software as a service (SaaS) and most of the enterprise workloads mentioned here are in the cloud. While it may add significant strategic value to your enterprise, it does not remove the fact that technology, whether in your office or in the cloud, also needs to be managed and secured.
Enter another great pairing: Jamf and Oomnitza Enterprise Technology Management (ETM), that gives you a comprehensive and holistic view of all the technology throughout your enterprise to help manage key business processes.
