Hi Simon, That's great that they're moving towards Jamf. From my prospective, it's the best choice for MDM in the Mac education environment. You're welcome to contact me off-list if you need any quick help with any of this sort of thing.

Yeah and the interfacing between mac and windows is getting so much beter. It’s just a shame that the mac doesn’t work with group policies or simple log in scripts.

Network Home storage was handled by AD and between MacOS's built-in Directory Utility along with the management preferences of the OS X Server. Mapping of network drives, app restrictions, printers and such along with AD authentication was all managed through this environment with amazing results. Yes, a similar process works with Apple Business Manager or Apple School Manager now, where integrating an MDM like Jamf, Zulu Desk or many other solutions make this integration of platforms work quite slick. Our MDM manages both Mac and iOS devices so that there is very few instances where Techs need to physically make contact with the managed devices. I went to a conference last fall where both Microsoft and IBM were demonstrating their processes by which they use an MDM to integrate Macs into there business environment. Later... .
