Organize the Chaos
What do you like best about the product?
We don't want to run AD or other on premise directory services, JumpCloud easily allows us to manage users, groups, policies, etc all with ease. JumpCloud allows us to govern our users with polices that are needed to ensure our staff meet our security policies and procedures.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Windows client leaves much to be desired. It's hard to get folks to understand the method to change passwords via the windows client alone. Mac's client is much better in this area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On-boarding and off-boarding. Compliance. Governance. Audit and access control. Policy management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give the tool a quick demo, it's quickly becomes evident that JumpCloud has the features you need.
Excellent SSO Suite
What do you like best about the product?
We love the ability to configure, add and remove users from systems, SAAS platforms and even internal processes in one convenient places.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not a ton I dislike, frankly. I think the previous iteration of the documentation that had individualized guides per service was a bit more helpful, but I understand why it was unsustainable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enforcement of password policy
Quick assigning and removal of access to services
Access management

Make sure you get a demo and understand the offering precisely.
Great product - a little pricey...
What do you like best about the product?
We use this primarily to keep passwords in sync and add an additional level of security to small and medium networks where AD may not be available or realistic for a full deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Jumpcloud can get expensive fast. Nonprofit pricing helps, but the bottom line is this is a costly service for small businesses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Adding additional security via cloud directory services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For really small networks, the freemium product is fantastic value.
Easiest 802.1X and RADIUS VPN integration I've ever done
What do you like best about the product?
Jumpcloud's extensive RADIUS support for network infrastructure! We already know of its strengths as a Single Sign On system, and this can be easily extended to network devices which only speak RADIUS - the most common case being WiFi followed by VPN, both essentials to the modern professional.
What do you dislike about the product?
This is the most minor of 'drawbacks' but each individual device has to be whitelisted under a RADIUS server entry, and I call it minor because it's really just a one-time setup thing. If we could whitelist subnets using CIDR that would be perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating WiFi access control and VPN access control - truly one password for EVERYTHING, whether you're signing onto to a network or your accounts. And as a network admin, it saves me HOURS of configuration trying to get the infra to play nicely with the Directory as a Service. Point my infra at their servers and I instantly have an authentication database.
Finally Mac and Windows working cloud identity management
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that you can manage systems, manage users in one place, connect to azure AD and connect to Gsuite. Wide variety of SSO support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some SSO integrations are still missing, i would also add more options for endpoint policies. the policies are the most important thing for CISO's looking for a good identity management to replace GPO.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AD replacement, SSO logins and accounts, Systems (linux) accesses to users from one dashboard.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dont think too much, its working and its working they way they say it is. Security options and management is there and full power. 5* product.
Life Saver During Covid Work from Home
What do you like best about the product?
In addition to being the new way to manage users and computers that is not called Active Directory, JumpCloud became a life save for us and allowed our user base to seamlessly work from home during Covid Lockdown
What do you dislike about the product?
Right now there is not a lot to dislike. Some additional features would be nice but I know there is a lot coming down the pipeline that will allow us to move off other systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A cloud based system to manage users and computers in a simple manner. The benefits have been numerous, including allowing users to change passwords without being on the VPN or in the office.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very easy and inexpensive to get going. The new tiered pricing allows you to pay for what you need.
Fantastic product for a modern workforce
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to be able to manage, control and provision machines/users remotely from anywhere in the world.
What do you dislike about the product?
No mobile app for quickly provisioning/blocking users or updating permissions and the poor user experience from iOS tablet devices as the website isn’t overly responsive to differing screen sizes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to completely remove our reliance on Windows servers at all our locations while enabling our workforce to be entirely mobile working with our cloud platforms.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely worth giving it a try. The dual platform support (Windows & Mac) is another hugely underestimated feature as trying to manage a dual environment can be very time consuming and difficult to configure. With JumpCloud - you install the appropriate agent on the end machine, provision the users and your done!
Excellent SSO solution with native desktop client support!
What do you like best about the product?
JumpCloud allows us to deploy SSO while integrating with Google Apps and deploy a native desktop client without having to utilize Active Directory.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Windows desktop client can be difficult to deploy if an existing nomenclature is not observed and SSO integrations can continue to be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Single Sign On
Active Directory Integration
Native Desktop Support

Native Desktop Support
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The ability to deploy a desktop client sets JumpCloud apart from others in this space.
A solution for companies born-in-the-cloud
What do you like best about the product?
I work for a small Healthcare startup that started with only a handful of employees (8). With Jumpcloud's 10-free-forever plan was the start we needed for our growing company. Having access to every feature offered by Jumpcloud was a huge plus allowing us to hit goals for NIST.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support is only provided via email.
To even have a forum where other Jumpcloud users could communicate would be a huge plus.
