Information Technology Services

On November 30, Information Technology Services (ITS) will implement Jamf Pro and Jamf Connect, two new products aimed at improving the experiences of UNCG Mac users. 

Jamf Pro provides the best-in-class user experience for software delivery, patch management, and device management. Installing software provided through Jamf Self Service is easy, and will soon become the one-stop-shop for software, printers, drive mappings, and on-click troubleshooting. 

Jamf Connect transforms the macOS login process by enabling Microsoft sign-in, the same sign-in process used to sign-in to UNCG email. This provides secure access to macOS computers from anywhere in the world and removes the need to bind macOS computers to Active Directory.

Cloud-based Jamf services are accessible from anywhere with an internet connection and do not require a direct connection to the UNCG network.

ITS will provide more information on this exciting transformation of macOS support as we near the implementation date. Stay tuned!
