What do you like best about the product?

For me, what stands out most is that JumpCloud brings everything under a single dashboard. Having a unified directory is a big advantage – you can easily handle users, groups and their accesses all from one place. I am dependent on the device management capabilities to keep security policies updated on every computer such as applying encryption or locking the screens. Thanks to SSO and SaaS apps working together, logging in for the team becomes simpler and safer. It blends a number of IT activities into a logical process.

What do you dislike about the product?

At the same time, the price can seem a bit technical and difficult to understand, as it depends on the features and customer types chosen. Scaling may not always make the cost impact obvious right away. Some very particular or specialized ways to set up the platform might require users to consult the offical docs or get assistance from support. Most of the interface is easy to use, even if sometimes there are features that some users find hard to find.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

JumpCloud basically takes care of the problem of managing many identities and devices. Doing things the old way, we set up users in various places by hand – separate accounts and different cloud applications. Giving and removing employee access took time, was slow and might leave unnecessary access open. Nowadays, JumpCloud acts as our central identity store and main device manager. After adding a user and assigning them to a group, they will right away get access to their devices and the apps. Offboarding allows us to instantly block all access which has made work more effective and secure.
