Great and simple tool
What do you like best about the product?
We did away with our in-house network and moved to JumpCloud. which enables us to retain control over the computers in our system even when they are in a home office setting. The total cost of our new setup is much lower. The support from JumpCloud was competent and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Did not have any issues. It takes a moment to familiarize with the software at the beginning, but that is normal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted to do away with our in-house network and still have control over the systems in our network.
JumpCloud: One size fits all!
What do you like best about the product?
JumpCloud is platform agnostic. You can manage Windows, Mac and Linux computers.
What do you dislike about the product?
I could use more reporting customization and I'd love to be able to apply a label or a comment to a device or a user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can manage access to an heterogeneous IT environment without any domains.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I've found everything I needed to manage our IT architecture.
The one cloud directory service to rule them all
What do you like best about the product?
The most essential part of Jumpcloud is the cross-platform capability to work on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see commands run on a Multi-Tennant level versus each client enrolled.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jumpcloud solves the identity management and policy updates to multiple systems across different platforms. Whether that's lockout policies or management of encryption keys it has a lot to offer
Great for managing a hybrid environment
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can use Jumpcloud to manage devices and create an easy login experience for my users. Installing Jumpcloud on devices is quite simple and the experience for updating paswords is even easier. We have a really strict password policy and allowing people to reset passwords on their own is crucial. Lastly, I love being able to push updates to my users through Jumpcloud. I've recently starting using their SSO features more often. Jumpcloud's SSO feature looks great and it's super easy for end users to know what they have access too.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that it's not easy to export information from Jumpcloud. I constantly find that i need to see when user's passwords will expire, when their device was last updated, or other random information, it would be great to have more viewing options or to export this information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jumpcloud allows us to remotely manage devices. A huge benefit is being able to push updates to devices from the jumpcloud admin portal. We've also loved being able to set password expiration policies to help keep our users secure. We switched ESP's this year and with jumpcloud we're able to manage a G Suite directory and Azure AD in one place. That's a really cool benefit during employee onboardings and offboardings. Jumpcloud also has a great directory feature. In the past, IT hasn't needed to store tons of extra information on users, but since we started working remotely, it's crucial i can quickly access info regarding employees to update their hardware or help with other issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend (if using macs) installing homebrew on your devices so you can push applications and updates to devices from the Jumpcloud portal.
LDAP made simple to get up and running quickly
What do you like best about the product?
I like the interface that makes it easy to see your assets at a glance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Bulk changes should be made easier. Exporting options are not robust.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems with onboarding are being solved quickly through ease of use of the tool. LDAP knowledge for junior engineers are not needed to get them started with administrating the tool. Managing assets have gotten easier with the ability to run remote commands and to lock out users as needed.
Jumpcloud Review
What do you like best about the product?
Jumpcloud is a very versatile system that is constantly getting updated. It works as an SSO solution, and is one of the only products I've found that is able to centrally control user logins on Macs and PC's in environments not using centralized active directory services.
What do you dislike about the product?
It needs more integrations for SSO and LDAP services, but I know this is something they're working on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits are vast, the best feature is centrally controlling computer logins.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
No specific recommendations, utilize Jumpcloud support if you're trying to integrate and running into issues. They have an excellent engineering and support team.
Saved Us on Linux Logins and User Management
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use for local authentication on non-domain machines using domain credentials. Building domain integration for all of our devices all around the country was near impossible, but here we can get the best of Active Directory (authentication) without needing custom software or unusual packages on Linux. It only took us a few minutes to get the AD integration installed on our domain controllers, and a lot of that was picking the utility user/password we'd use to authenticate the integration. Once we had the user setup, we were able to get it installed and users were live in the cloud instantly. There is also a very good agent for the end-client devices we're looking to integrate that allowed us to quickly deploy. After installation, it pulled down the configuration and began to set up the devices further to our desired state.
What do you dislike about the product?
They try to be a lot of things to a lot of people, but there isn't a good "basics" package just to get the authentication portion. We don't need an MDM and group policy interface. I also wish we could assign login permissions to AD groups instead of having to grant access to each person separately. I also dislike that the user account for integration is statically named and must be in the Users OU. Any groups that enable access to Jumpcloud also require you to create them in the Users OU, which makes it difficult to manage. We, like many companies, use OUs to hold our groups, our users, and our machines to make them easier to manage with Group Policy, and limiting us to this one means the security group cannot colocate with our other security groups in our main corporate OU. It would also be nice to have a way for existing AD user without needing a full refresh of their password in AD.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a lot of Linux systems around the country that all need central authentication without custom or crazy software. All our other systems use Active Directory, so getting AD to work on Red Hat, CentOS, and Ubuntu in a repeatable format is next to impossible. This was three clicks and it's installed on a box forever. So easy! Now when a new employee starts in our systems department or our network engineering team, they gain access to the requisite infrastructure automatically based on their memberships in our Active Directory. That's not new, that's standard in AD; what's unique and different is the fact that this is now possible in even our cloud-based systems that live in Azure, Google, or AWS! We've also used it for our limited number of Mac users that now have AD integration without the headache of binding OS X to AD using the built-in tools. Password expiration, software deployment, and even some basic MDM for Mac all included as a part of the license.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you follow instructions on AD integration and install the agent on every AD server. We missed one and it caused major issues until we were able to go back and properly set this up with each domain controller. It is very simple once you do it the right way, and even alerts you if the agent goes out-of-date because of new patches. Since we're a GPO shop for deployment, the silent installer makes it simple to deploy to our AD controllers and stage as a part of our regular monthly maintenance cycle.
Modern directory as a service to manage distributed teams over multiple continents
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and Learning curve in Jumpcloud is so easy, You can get started with simple Jumpcloud setup in just few minutes, unlike Active Directory. Apart from just a directory as a service its truly amazing a single sign-on solution that covers almost all the modern and legacy integrations like Jira, Git, LDAP, Google, Slack, Newrelic, Jenkins(LDAP), Grafana(LDAP) just to name a few.
What do you dislike about the product?
In general, there is nothing huge to dislike about jumpcloud is priced well for a such a complete solution. They have been constantly improving and adding features as we requested to them over the past 4-5 years.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to manage teams distributed over 3 continent and jumpcloud really came in to save all the hassle of maintaining the active directory and security aspect for use. It's not just cheap in its pricing but also saves hours of work that you otherwise put in managing your local directory and again that would be just directory jumpcloud is much more than that for us thanks to its integrations with almost all the modern services and protocols commonly used.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to take most out of jumpcloud, try to integrate all the possible services with jumpcloud, including your systems and SaaS. It truly becomes a marvelous solution when you don't have to log in to 20 different accounts.
Always open for improvement Saas service provider
What do you like best about the product?
As a Saas service provider, SSO and LDAP services are "Always On"
JC has always been very open to suggestions on features which makes sense.
The EDGE over normal AD enviroment is cross platform, JC works well with MacOS and Linux systems & a growing list system-wide policies for Windows and MacOS
The new System insights/Directory Insights brings Jumpcloud closer to SCCM and gives better visibility on whats on endpoints & Authentications for services
MDM is which is still in it's initial stage at the point of this review will bring jumpcloud to the next level.

MDM is which is still in it's initial stage at the point of this review will bring jumpcloud to the next level.
What do you dislike about the product?
The admin console UI, simple and no roles (RBAC) defined to access. Any admin can do everything & if one goes rouge he/she can potentially delete everyone.
This will be still the achillies heel of JC until it can have roles like "Idenity admin" , "Helpdesk" , "Superadmin" with access to the logically related places similar to AD (where helpdesk can only unlock and reset password)
Overall reporting is still lacking, GUI take a while to display objects (user/endpoints/policies).
Where new features like Directory insights and System insights were introduced with csv export, foundation features still have not introduced this.

Directory/LDAP sync between GUI frontend and backend DB at times take long to replicate for larger orgs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Fantastic Saas provider who is feature rich for any org size. Always open to suggestion mindset.
Think not just Cloud directory to replace AD, it's so much more.
