NoMAD makes this seamless by keeping the account credentials in sync between the identity provider and the Mac. Our goal has always been to design and deliver products that make life easier for Mac admins and their users.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><div class=\"widget\"><div class=\"aside-card\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p><a class=\"speedbump-1\" href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1682\" title=\"MDM Buyer's Guide\" src=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/files\/2019\/02\/mobility-bg-speedbump.jpg\" alt=\"Download Link to MDM Buyer's Guide\" width=\"800\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the assistance of the NoMAD team, Jamf will continue to improve both the commercial and open-source products. The open-source solution will be branded NoMAD, and Jamf will begin to provide complimentary chat support for the product. Commercial editions of NoMAD, which include NoMAD Pro, NoMAD Login+, and PKiniT, will be integrated into one solution. This solution will be rebranded Jamf Connect. Those who use the open-source version or Jamf Connect have access to the provider&#8217;s support and services team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Vice president of product management at Jamf, Cameron Evjen, who also spoke about the acquisition said, \u201caccount management and security often come with a trade-off by impacting an end user experience.
