Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable feature of JumpCloud, it provides a convenient and streamlined solution for me to access and manage all of the features I require in one centralized location. This eliminates the need for me to worry about hiring individuals to manage these tasks, as well as eliminating concerns surrounding hardware, updates, and licenses. With JumpCloud, I am able to receive the services I need in a timely and efficient manner, which has significantly reduced my stress and alleviated a great deal of the issues I once faced. This is especially important as I am often bound by laws, regulations, contracts, and customer demands to keep up with various tasks. With JumpCloud, I am able to manage everything I need in one place, giving me visibility and control over aspects that I previously had to manage through multiple systems."
- "JumpCloud could improve the user interface. While it has certainly come a long way, there is still room for improvement in terms of simplifying and making it more intuitive for the user. In my opinion, the UI/UE could benefit from some modifications to enhance the overall user experience. I have suggested some changes to JumpCloud regarding this matter as I believe that they have the potential to further enhance the platform and make it even more user-friendly. There are certain small features within the system that users may not be familiar with, as they may have previously used different systems with different user interfaces."
What is our primary use case?
I am making the most of JumpCloud's services and features, as we have opted for one of their highest subscription plans which includes all of the available services. This platform is quite extensive and offers a range of plans to choose from. By utilizing JumpCloud, I am able to manage all of my users through a central account, giving me a single place to view and access all related systems, applications, and services that my users need. This is done by simply logging into my JumpCloud account, which grants me almost unlimited access to all of my desired applications and services.
How has it helped my organization?
In order to meet a range of local and international regulations and standards, our organization was required to implement a system to manage various aspects of our operations, including users, devices, and servers. After careful consideration and analysis, it was determined that JumpCloud would be the best solution to help us comply with these requirements.

There are certain small features within the system that users may not be familiar with, as they may have previously used different systems with different user interfaces.
If tomorrow JumpCloud were to present a new and improved version, it should include asset management as a new and innovative feature. Currently, JumpCloud only offers device management, which is a great feature. However, there should be the option to manage other physical hardware items, such as screen monitors, keyboards, mouses, etc. These are items that are connected to electricity but do not have any physical software updates. A feature for managing these assets would be extremely beneficial and make my life easier in this new JumpCloud.
If JumpCloud were to introduce asset management as a new feature in their future updates. Although I understand that I cannot physically update the screens, I still need to manage them. This would include keeping track of how many screens I have, whether one of them has stopped working, and if I had to replace it. The ability to keep a record of these things would be extremely beneficial and make managing my assets much easier.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using JumpCloud for over one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability of JumpCloud is great. JumpCloud has been an extremely reliable solution for our company with 100 percent availability. We have not encountered any issues with its performance and it has consistently been working smoothly. Additionally, it has robust disaster recovery mechanisms in place that ensure its continued functioning even in the event of internet connectivity loss. We are highly satisfied with its performance and the peace of mind it provides us.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We have every one of the one-hundred-plus employees in our company using the solution.
How are customer service and support?
When I reached out to JumpCloud's support with a question, I received a prompt response from their team. Although it turned out to be a user error on my part, they were still able to provide clear explanations and instructions on how to resolve the issue. I appreciate the quick response and helpful guidance I received from their support team.
I was fortunate enough to have access to local support representatives, who were available to me on a personal level through various modes of communication such as email, phone, and WhatsApp. These representatives were consistently prompt in their responses and provided professional and knowledgeable solutions to all of my inquiries, even going above and beyond to provide additional help and consultation. I am extremely pleased with the level of support I received from them.
I rate the support from JumpCloud a ten out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The setup of JumpCloud is dependent on various factors, including the systems and features utilized by each individual organization. In our experience, we found the setup to be relatively straightforward and easy to complete, despite the fact that it did take us some time to transition to all the features we desired. However, this delay was not a result of any issues with JumpCloud itself, but rather a resource constraint within our own organization, as we had to allocate a dedicated team member to manage the setup process.
In regards to the initial setup of JumpCloud, it can be deemed a smooth and straightforward process. Our experience with the platform was highly positive, as we encountered no technical difficulties or malfunctions. There were a few existing systems that were not related to JumpCloud and required some organization, however, the connection process to JumpCloud was seamless and rapid.
The setup process for JumpCloud was a slow and gradual one for our company, as we had to first address and resolve any existing issues with other systems before making the transition. Due to our limited resources and lack of organization, we approached the setup in a methodical and cautious manner, adding one system at a time and thoroughly testing each one before proceeding to the next. The process took several months to complete and was completed slowly and easily.
Its implementation took several months. However, the increased time was mostly our fault.
What about the implementation team?
The support provided by JumpCloud was also impressive, as they assisted us with meetings and consultations, along with providing descriptive articles and guides that helped us accomplish all the necessary tasks with ease. We used one person for the implementation of the solution the vendor support team.
We were able to do very low resources from our side. It's working great on an enterprise level.
What was our ROI?
We have received a return on investment using JumpCloud. I did not need to invest upfront, I paid monthly peruse.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
JumpCloud offers several subscription plans as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider. The pricing is based on the number of users and the services that are required, meaning that you only pay for what you consume and don't have to pay for services that you don't need. When compared to other solutions, JumpCloud can actually be more cost-effective, as it eliminates the need to hire a team, purchase hardware, pay for licenses and software, and worry about updates, security, and backups. Thus, it offers a more efficient and cost-effective solution for managing your needs.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
One of the major advantages of using JumpCloud is that it provides a centralized system for managing all aspects of our operations. This means that if we need to demonstrate compliance with regulations or standards, we can simply point to JumpCloud as our system of record. All user, device, and server information is maintained in real time within the JumpCloud platform, ensuring that we always have up-to-date information at our fingertips.
Whether it's proving that we're managing all of our endpoints, or demonstrating that a new device has been added to our network, JumpCloud provides us with a one-stop solution that makes it easy to meet our compliance obligations. It eliminates the need for manual processes or paper-based systems and ensures that our information is always accurate and up-to-date.
The reason behind the selection of JumpCloud by my company as the preferred solution was due to its comprehensive and all-encompassing nature. The system provides complete visibility into who is accessing the device and ensures that the operating system is always up to date and in compliance with company policies. This includes the enforcement of antivirus installations, which provides a heightened level of security. The system also facilitates external audits and reviews with ease, as it can easily provide all necessary information and documentation, making it easier for me to be compliant with all requirements. With JumpCloud, I can confidently say that it is not just an excuse but an actual solution that is efficiently managed and provides accurate answers to any inquiries.
What other advice do I have?
I would highly recommend using JumpCloud if you are considering using it for the first time. JumpCloud provides an all-in-one solution that is managed, up-to-date, and constantly improving. With its cutting-edge software and services, you can save a significant amount of time, money, and knowledge. In fact, not using JumpCloud would result in having to invest more resources to achieve a less effective outcome. Simply put, JumpCloud is the optimal choice for anyone looking for a seamless and efficient solution.
JumpCloud has consistently offered exceptional solutions and services that are highly efficient and effective. Although it may not be perfect in every aspect, it operates exceptionally well and I am pleased with its performance.
I rate JumpCloud a nine out of ten.

IT Specialist at a financial services firm with 11-50 employees
Provides great visibility and the ability to integrate all applications
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable feature is the ability of the product to integrate all applications."
- "Lacks the ability to have various VPN applications."
- "We initially had some issues with FileBot while locating users' keys; they were not immediately visible and customer support wasn't able to solve the problem."
What is our primary use case?
The primary use case of JumpCloud is for managing everything on your files, Apple or Android devices, and Windows devices. We are a start-up bank and JumpCloud provides us with an all-in-one directory and solution for the management of our fleet and SaaS applications. I'm an IT specialist and we are customers of JumpCloud.
How has it helped my organization?
The product provides great visibility over all transactions including identity, authentications, and directory insight. This has helped us a lot in terms of zero-trust security as everything was widely integrated into the zero-trust platform.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature is the ability of the product to integrate all applications. It also performs on Okta. This is a one-stop solution for having a single sign-on and being able to integrate your Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, and then streamlining the onboarding and offboarding. With one click, you can offboard a user and all the integrations are automatically stopped. If there are any SaaS applications that are not single sign-on and are integrated on JumpCloud with SAML authentication, it's automatically integrated. If you are using JumpCloud as your laptop manager and you suspend the account, those devices will automatically cut off. It's a very effective system. In terms of our IT admin, the solution is extensive, presentable, and easy to use.
What needs improvement?
We initially had some issues with FileBot while locating users' keys; they were not immediately visible and customer support wasn't able to solve the problem. There are quite a lot of things in the MDM that need to be improved and, in general, there is some detail lacking in the solution. JumpCloud offers many solutions within the product but they are not generally well developed. When we tried using their MDM solution, we were not able to completely manage our Apple devices. We eventually switched to Jamf. We were able to import VPNs into the profiles of all remote workers but the solution doesn't provide the ability to have various VPN applications.
I would like to see some additional features in terms of software where we'd be able to pass credentials to the auditor and see all the activities in the account. In terms of conditional access, we need more refined policies and control over conditional access.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using this solution for seven months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would say it's a stable solution. It's one-touch, frictionless, prevents unauthorized access and brings a zero-trust security model to your platform. I believe this is very stable. Maintenance was carried out using JumpCloud infrastructure, there's not much involved. It's on a monthly basis for one hour and is straightforward. It didn't affect performance.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
JumpCloud is very scalable with the cloud infrastructure. We now have around 50 users, all the executives of the company, HR, marketing, and the sales team.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support was not good in the beginning but it has improved recently.
How was the initial setup?
The deployment is pretty straightforward. You can choose between loading a device or integrating with Workspace. We chose to integrate our Google Workspace environment. I carried out the deployment with my security manager and it took us seven days. We started with a seven-day trial, testing a sandbox environment to make sure it was right for us and then moved straight into it. It was great.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing of JumpCloud is very reasonable. We opted for it because we were a startup with a small budget with 15 employees so we couldn't go with any of the expensive options. We needed a cloud directory and conditional access policies and JumpCloud offered that at a reasonable cost. Licensing costs were around $15 per user per month.
JumpCloud offers different packages depending on your requirements. The cost can be as low as $2 per user per month if you're looking for a simple cloud directory. For each feature, you add another couple of dollars. We opted for the JumpCloud platform, the complete solution, which provides access to all the applications; device management, a single sign-on platform, and the MFAs.
What other advice do I have?
The value of the solution depends upon a company's infrastructure. If you are a startup with a low budget, then go for JumpCloud. If you're a large company, then there are better solutions out there. I learned a lot in terms of managing the MDM fleet where we actually used Jamf and Kandji and Mosyle. These solutions were pretty robust whereas JumpCloud didn't have much variety in the features we used, it was quite limited.
Given the extra features and great price, I rate this solution eight out of 10.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud

Useful policy management, flexible, and useful documentation
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable features of JumpCloud are flexibility, policy management for devices, and device patch management. For example, we can limit access to devices only in Chile or send a number of commands to the devices to manage them."
- "JumpCloud could improve the compatibility with other devices and operating systems. For example, the solution only works well with Mac and some Linux devices. It does not work for mobile devices, such as Android."
What is our primary use case?
JumpCloud is a zero-trust network access solution. We are focused principally on the public health sector. We use the solution in conjunction with Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, or other cloud providers.
We use JumpCloud to manage our teams' access with a single sign-on and by applying policies to their devices. This is a solution that helps integrate one with the other.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of JumpCloud are flexibility, policy management for devices, and device patch management. For example, we can limit access to devices only in Chile or send a number of commands to the devices to manage them.
What needs improvement?

The initial setup of JumpCloud is easy and flexible. There are tutorial videos available to teach how to deploy.
What other advice do I have?
I rate JumpCloud a nine out of ten.
