Four reasons IT teams move from Jamf Pro to miniOrange MDM:
miniOrange MDM manages Android, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, Windows, and ChromeOS devices, including rugged and POS hardware, from a single dashboard. Jamf Pro is built for Apple, so mixed fleets on Jamf usually need a second MDM.
miniOrange quotes are based on your device count, operating systems, the features you need, and your support level. You pay per managed device, with volume discounts and no hidden fees. Jamf sells fixed bundles with a 25-device minimum and annual billing.
Web content filtering, app allow/block lists, geofencing alerts, remote screen cast, and kiosk lockdown for exams are all part of miniOrange MDM. With Jamf, content filtering requires a separate product, Jamf Safe Internet.
Base support 24/5 with a 2-hour response on P1 tickets. Getting 24/7 and a 30-minute response means moving up to Silver or Gold, priced as a percentage of annual spend.
If you manage a mix of Android, Windows, Apple, and ChromeOS devices, or need controls like geofencing, schedule-based policies, and remote screen cast for frontline or classroom devices, miniOrange MDM covers them in one place, alongside miniOrange’s identity and data protection products. Start a 14-day free trial or book a demo to test miniOrange MDM with your own devices.
If your fleet is almost entirely Apple and depends on Apple-specific workflows like Declarative Device Management, Self Service, then Jamf can be a good option but if you are looking for a cost-efficient solution that supports all your devices then miniOrange is a better choice.
