## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-22 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The honest answer is that "best" depends almost entirely on what your fleet looks like, so here's how I'd actually rank them:
> 
> **If your team is mostly Mac/iPhone (typical startup or design/eng shop):**
> 
> 1. **Mosyle** - my default recommendation for small-to-mid remote teams. Apple-only, genuinely cheap ($2/device/mo for Business, $5 for Business Plus, free up to 30 devices), and the product is clean and reliable. For a 20-100 person distributed team it does 95% of what Jamf does at a fraction of the cost.
> 2. **Iru (formerly Kandji, rebranded Oct 2025)** - the one I'd pick if you want MDM, EDR, identity, and compliance automation in one platform instead of stitching four vendors together. Their auto-remediating "Blueprints" model is the best-in-class experience for zero-touch onboarding of remote hires. Custom pricing, so expect a sales call.
> 3. **Jamf Pro** - still the deepest Apple management tool, and the right call if you're 500+ Macs, have a dedicated Mac admin, or face heavy compliance/regulatory requirements. Below that headcount it's overkill and the most expensive per device ($4-$12.50/user/mo).
> 
> **If you're a Microsoft 365 shop:**
> 
> 4. **Microsoft Intune** - if you already
