4 Ways Asset Panda’s Jamf Integration Benefits Apple-Based Businesses

asset-panda-jamf-integration-header
You know that age-old debate about whether or not Windows is better than Mac? Sure, you do. But you don't really care. Because while the majority of other businesses prefer to work on Windows machines, your company thrives on Apple devices, and you wouldn't have it any other way. You’re able to manage these devices with ease using Jamf, a comprehensive asset tracking system created specifically to help you manage Apple devices.  

Unfortunately, you know Jamf can’t do everything your business needs. With all its benefits, the system is only meant to help you control your individual Macs, iPads, iPhones, and Apple TVs. It doesn’t provide you a complete picture of your company’s entire asset inventory or show you exactly how your Apple devices fit into this larger collection, which is important to understand if you want to make smarter business decisions like making new purchases or conducting accurate audits. So what’s to be done?

This is where Asset Panda comes in.

Asset Panda Now Integrates with Jamf

Fortunately for you, our holistic, now integrates with Jamf to help you better manage not just your Apple devices, but your entire asset inventory throughout your entire business. Asset Panda is a robust system which allows you to track everything from software licenses to the chairs your employees sit on; our cloud-based platform lets you access your account from anywhere in the world, and our mobile app comes with not just your account information, but a barcode scanner to reduce your need for traditional handheld scanners.

This new Jamf integration will help you transfer your information and records from that platform into our software after connecting your Asset Panda account, and you can choose to assign this data to any group of your choice within Asset Panda. You’ll also be able to see all the info you have on the computers and devices within Jamf, including desktops, laptops, and mobile devices. Data can be synced between the systems manually or automatically at a pre-scheduled time, and you can also define fields which will send information back to Jamf when you update them in Asset Panda.

4 Ways Asset Panda and Jamf Make Your Business Better

These features and more make Asset Panda’s Jamf integration a boon for your business. With these two systems working in sync, your Apple-based company will operate at top-notch levels. Here are just some of the benefits you can expect to see when you implement these two pieces of software in your business:
  1. More Accurate Records - With the ability to sync between both Asset Panda and Jamf, you’re less likely to run across errors which can occur when updating information by hand or trying to transfer it from one asset tracking system to the other.
  2. Reduced Loss - Both Jamf and Asset Panda will help you track not just where your Apple devices are, but also who they were assigned to last or who last logged into them. This up-to-date tracking can reduce the likelihood of devices going missing or even getting stolen.
  3. Saved Time - This new integration reduces the time needed for your employees to manually enter the information about your Apple devices into Asset Panda, and the sync feature also eliminates the need for them to manually update the information when changes are made in either asset tracking system.
  4. Improved Audits/Business Decisions - Once Jamf and Asset Panda are integrated, you will have a complete picture of not just all your Apple-based products, but your business’s entire asset inventory. This allows you to better balance your finances, conduct detailed audits, and make improved business decisions like only purchasing new devices when necessary.
If you like the sound of these benefits, you can and see how it works with Jamf to better your business.
