The Siit & Jamf MDM integration is a powerful collaboration that seamlessly connects Siit's employee support platform with Jamf's Mobile Device Management system. This integration empowers your IT team to efficiently manage devices, enhance visibility, and perform quick actions directly from the Siit interface.

What benefits does the integration offer?

  • Full Equipment Sync (🔄): Siit synchronizes all equipment, associating them with employees for comprehensive visibility into the devices assigned to each employee.

  • Quick Actions Capability (🚀): Siit enables IT professionals to trigger Jamf actions, such as locking or unlocking devices, or resetting passwords directly from the Siit interface.
