Jamf School Review

Jamf School is a mobile device management (MDM) software that allows teachers to limit specific web sites, applications, and camera features on student devices and block them after sending a custom message. It offers an app request feature, which allows teachers to request apps from the Apple App Store and the Jamf School Teacher app and monitor the status of requests in real time.
Jamf School features include user management, an activity dashboard, a drag-and-drop interface, and more. In addition, the application allows administrators to run diagnostics on individual devices and identify system problems. It gives students permissions to access education-related web sites and restricts access to unauthorized applications.
