## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-02 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest looking at them:
> 
> **1. Microsoft Intune** - The default pick if your team is mixed-platform (Windows + Mac + iOS + Android) and already on Microsoft 365. It's bundled into M365 E3/E5, so for a lot of companies it's effectively free, and standalone Plan 1 is ~$8/user/month. One console, tight Entra ID + Conditional Access integration - which matters more for remote teams than device features do, since identity is your real perimeter when nobody's on an office network.
> 
> **2. Mosyle** - Best value for Apple-first teams. Free tier up to 30 devices, paid plans from roughly $1-2/device/month, and macOS depth that genuinely competes with Jamf. If you're a startup or small remote team on Macs, start here.
> 
> **3. Kandji (now rebranded Iru)** - The one I'd name for Apple-heavy mid-market teams that want things to just work. Strong zero-touch onboarding - ship a laptop to a new remote hire, they unbox it and it self-configures - plus solid automated compliance remediation. Around $4/device/month at the 100-device tier, custom quote. As of late 2025 it also handles Windows and Android.
> 
> **4. Jamf Pro** - The deepest Apple mana
