Kandji

Product Summary

Kandji is a cloud-native device management solution for Apple-only ecosystems. It is widely used for managing MacBooks, iPads, and iPhones.

Use Cases

  • Automated patch management:
    Kandji’s Auto Apps library offers common Apple applications ready to deploy and can be set to scan devices automatically to ensure they are updated.
  • Out-of-the-box configurations:
    Kandji offers blueprint configuration templates for deploying applications to a macOS device.
  • Remote endpoint management:
    Technicians get full visibility of all macOS devices, including applications, activity, and logs of remediations for any issues.

Shortcomings

  • No support for other OS:
    Designed specifically for Apple-only environments, this solution would not be compatible with hybrid set-ups since organizations would have to invest in another solution to support non-Apple devices.
  • Limited reporting:
    Users on G2 have noted that extracting detailed reports can be difficult, and some metrics cannot be extracted.
  • Rigid licensing:
    Kandji’s pricing is inflexible and requires a minimum of a hundred devices for a license, which can make it less cost-effective.
