Centralized classroom management has created secure, focused digital learning with zero-touch updates
Jamf School is so easy to use. Perhaps because I have been in the technology field for so long, it did not take a lot of training, and the training that Jamf does is amazing. The documentation and behind-the-scenes support is great. There is not really much I would say I would want to see improved. If I had to think of even a small area where Jamf School could be improved, I think some of our more experienced users that know how to do custom scripting would appreciate it because we do have techs that also use Jamf Pro that get to that custom scripting, and sometimes in Jamf School, there is not really that same layer. If there was something they could do a little bit more to allow those that do have the capabilities to do some of that, that might be useful. It is also that Jamf School is mostly an Apple-first platform, but as our campuses are growing and more Chromebooks are becoming available, it would be nice if Jamf School was as good with the other platforms versus just Apple products. Regarding app requests within Jamf School, I would appreciate it if there was something in there that would make it easier for the teachers to request apps more effortlessly. Instead of back-and-forth emails, if there was a direct feature for a teacher's app request, it would help. We have not really used that very much. Teachers can browse it, and maybe we are just not using it to the greatest ability, but as long as that app request feature was very easy for teachers to use, we would get more app requests quickly instead of them having to create help tickets.

Crowdsourced knowledge has grown into a trusted customer hub and now supports richer adoption journeys
One inconvenience is that because we are crowdsourced, we have hundreds of contributors every year, with most people only submitting one article, maybe two, so it does not make sense to pay for licenses for all of those people. This leads to some intermediary manual copy-paste processes because we just cannot have everybody working in the system itself, making it a little bit problematic for maintaining a source of truth. The main issues with NICE CXone are the lack of ability to integrate with some internal things that we want to do; it has to do with the way the system is designed, which is complex. We wanted to integrate with our internal system for instant translations, and we were not able to do that, along with a couple of other things that illustrate that it is kind of an isolated system to itself, making it pretty hard to tap into and grow even further. There are a couple of little issues with reporting that have not been very good, but really, the system is very functional.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of Jamf School are exceptional, as it is amazing to manage the entire iPad fleet while pushing applications and controlling student safety, which is a concern we take seriously."
"Many features of Jamf School, including automated device enrollment, have helped us manage multiple devices."
"It was straightforward to initially deploy it."
"Jamf School has positively impacted my organization by reducing the hands-on touch of all the devices in all the classrooms, allowing our teachers to do more instruction, keeping students safe and focused, and giving them a more efficient learning space with exactly the educational apps they need when they need them."
"Jamf School has achieved 70 to 90% time savings through automated enrollment and Wi-Fi certificates, which represents 90% less time on provisioning and ongoing device management."
"Jamf School has positively impacted my organization by making students' lives easier, enhancing their learning progress with the apps they need when they need them, and making teachers' lives easier by allowing them to control and manage iPads within the classroom, which has a great impact on the academic level."
"The solution protects all our Apple products like iPads and MacBooks."
"The overall usage is the most valuable, and it's a clear upgrade from our previous system."
"Being able to listen in on a call, which is exceptionally good with training."
"NICE CXone has positively impacted the organization as the website was built from scratch; I was hired to build this website six years ago, and it has grown phenomenally."
"It is easy to look up and playback calls with this system as it categorizes the different types of calls that come through my call center. I like that inContact is always updating and continues to improve. The quality of its recorded calls is among the best that I have had experience with."
"The copilot feature in NICE CXone has reduced a great deal of after-call work substantially through summarization."
"We have seen improvements in agent productivity, customer satisfaction, and reduced wait times, specifically an improvement in our CSAT scores and NPS scores, a reduction in cost per call, a decrease in average handle time, and utilization across the board has improved."
"NICE CXone was a good initial platform because it helped us from a bare-bones patient outreach standpoint, but we did not get the support we needed, and the user interface was very limited regarding what we could do with it."
"MindTouch seemed to deliver the complete package, and we've not looked back."
"The initial setup of NICE CXone was straightforward and easy for our team, as the implementation team we worked with was very good at what they did."
 

Cons

"My only concern with the direct customer support is that it is only by email, and the email can take up to two days, meaning sometimes in emergencies, you need a quick response."
"The product must improve its price."
"If you start the system update in Jamf School, you cannot stop it."
"There is room for improvement with the security aspects, like scripting."
"Jamf Safe Internet also needs some improvement because it is very technical."
"If I had to think of even a small area where Jamf School could be improved, I think some of our more experienced users that know how to do custom scripting would appreciate it because we do have techs that also use Jamf Pro that get to that custom scripting, and sometimes in Jamf School, there is not really that same layer."
"Having everything centralized would be a preferable update."
"The development tools in NICE CXone could be better, as there are some pain points."
"A better approach would be to have built-in routing capabilities for scenarios such as routing by area code to different agents, rather than having to build this functionality with snippets."
"NICE CXone is a good feature, but it is expensive and costlier than other products such as Genesis or other alternatives."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while."
"I was using a very old version (2010), and the user interface was bad making it difficult to perform simple tasks."
"We experienced a significant outage when someone at NICE CXone brought our system down."
"Compared to challengers such as Zoom, which seem more cost-effective, NICE CXone's suite of products is very modular, so as they provide new services, you have to add to your existing package and this balloons your costs since there's an additional license needed to use the new tools."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while. For example, if I have a dashboard open that shows how many calls are in queue and how many are currently being handled by agents, sometimes a call that an agent is handling will get stuck on the dashboard after the agent ends the call and the dashboard will show that the call is still a live call. Our tech team has explained this to us as a ghost call. After some time (or maybe many screen refreshes) the call will go away like it has just ended."
