Complexities in higher education
Here is how Jamf helps you tackle the vast array of devices, use-cases and locations that complicate higher education IT.
Department siloing
Zero-touch deployments with automated provisioning, patching and updates allow IT to manage the university's entire Apple fleet, no matter how and where departments use devices.
Apple devices and a Windows stack
Jamf's partnerships with Microsoft, Google and Okta combine with dozens of other integrations mean that Jamf easily integrates into your existing stack while still providing optimal Apple management.
Vulnerable data
Research institutions hold proprietary and sensitive data. Jamf's on-device behavioral analysis security, zero-trust access and encrypted connections lower risk of breaches and intellectual property theft.
Off-campus device vulnerability
Jamf's remote management, security, encryption, authentication and application management expands the IT perimeter to far beyond campus walls.
Collaboration is our strength.

How is Jamf priced for higher education?
Jamf for higher education is priced per device, with flexible options for macOS, iPadOS and mobile deployments. Volume-based pricing scales to fit your institution's needs — whether you're managing a targeted rollout or an institution-wide Apple initiative.
We already pay for Microsoft Intune with our licenses — why would we also need Jamf?
Jamf is purpose-built for Apple — giving your institution deeper device management, faster support for new Apple features and education-specific workflows. Rather than replacing your Microsoft investment, Jamf works alongside it so your Apple users get a seamless, secure experience while IT standardizes where it makes sense.
Does Jamf offer volume or campus-wide licensing discounts?
Yes. Jamf offers volume and campus-wide licensing discounts. Please contact us for more information.
Can we start with a smaller deployment and scale up later?
Yes. Many institutions start with a specific department or device pool and expand over time. Jamf scales with you, so there's no need to re-architect as your deployment grows.
