Built for the AI era, Iru unifies identity \& access, endpoint security \& management, and compliance automation—collapsing the stack and giving IT \& Security teams time and control back. The Problem IT \& Security teams today juggle dozens of point solutions with separate consoles and data silos. There's no shared context or single view, so work slows and risk grows. Nearly half of teams cite overlapping tools as their top challenge. The stack is the problem. Iru collapses the stack by bringing together the capabilities every business relies on. When they live in one place, they inform each other, and everything works better. At the core is the Iru Context Model—a living map of your environment. On top of it sits Iru AI, which transforms complex data into clear, strategic insights and enables all products to inform and improve each other. The Platform Iru gives you a single view of your users, apps, and devices through six integrated products: - Workforce Identity delivers passwordless single sign-on with device-bound passkeys, context-aware access to every app, and automated user lifecycle management. - Endpoint Management provides advanced automation to onboard users, update apps, and enforce policies across Apple, Windows, and Android—all with a single lightweight endpoint agent. - Endpoint Detection \& Response stops advanced and emerging threats with machine learning-enhanced detections, autonomous containment, and remediation in real time across Mac and Windows. - Vulnerability Management gives full visibility into software risk on Mac and Windows with autonomous response to patch vulnerable software, prioritized by Iru AI. - Compliance Automation is AI-native—transforming frameworks into tailored controls, breaking them into tasks, and mapping evidence automatically to keep you audit-ready." - Trust Center provides a public portal to share certifications, reports, and security posture to accelerate deals, with security questionnaires answered by Iru AI. Built for the AI Era Iru AI is designed from the ground up to connect agents across identity, endpoints, and compliance. Powered by the Iru Context Model, it understands your users, devices, and apps to act safely, intelligently, and in context across your organization. This gives IT \& Security teams time and control back. > > Verdict: Rated **4.9/5** by 477 users.

My experience using Iru has been great. > > **Cons**: On others MDM's like Jumpcloud, it's easier to push a script to a single machine. Having something like that on Iru would be good. ----- ### "Iru Endpoint Management has been excellent for us" — 5.0/5 > **Shaun** | *10 December 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: One of the biggest things I like about Iru, besides the clean layout and ease of use, is assignment maps, which are a flexible way to assign different profiles to various machines without having to use multiple templates. > > **Cons**: If there is anything I don't like about Iru, it would be the pricing. With the device count minimums, for smaller companies, it makes it harder to get budget approval. > > Iru (formerly Kandji) has been an excellent MDM for us over the past four years. While we haven't explored the identity or vulnerability management side of things, they certainly have piqued my interest. I would recommend Iru. ----- ### "Best option for modern Apple fleet management" — 5.0/5 > **Ryan** | *17 June 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We started using Kandji's MDM service to help with managing our fleet of Apple products . We chose this solution because when comparing it with incumbents they had the least barrier to entry and the most functionality for the price . Since implementing it, we’ve seen improvements in compliance with our policies through enforcement and fewer tickets to the IT team regarding installing corporate software, and I especially loves how easy it is to deploy new apps and policies across the fleet. The support team is so quick to answer and willing to really hop in and help build out solutions > > **Cons**: One of the challenges we've faced with Kandji is that since they are newer than incumbents like JAMF some third party providers dont have explicit instructions for setting up their products with Kandji and you have to work a bit harder to implement. > > Couldnt be happier with our decision to move to Kandji, they have been a huge value add to my tech stack and made Apple management much easier ----- ### "Solid MDM Solution for Macs" — 3.0/5 > **Michael** | *2 October 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: After administering similar solutions, Kandji is by far the easiest with a minimal learning curve\!\!\! > > **Cons**: Device management should encompass all types of devices, not just Apple. Security features need work. Cost is comparable to other solutions; however, it only supports Apple products. > > Overall. I would score Kandji 6.5 out of 10. Ten being great/perfect\! The UI is easy to navigate, and the new blueprint visual builder is friendly\! ----- ### "A must try for Mac admins starting out" — 5.0/5 > **Dennis** | *20 January 2026* | Public Relations & Communications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: -Clean, graphical display of the blueprint (profiles) deployed to devices. Can trace devices individually to see what profiles were deployed -Knowledgable support team that can answer issues and integrations -Clean interface where non-tech teams (like auditors) can look at without jumping through multiple hoops (eg. dashboard for vulnerability scans) -Fast updates and notifications with the platform's compatibility with latest OS > > **Cons**: -Currently the Iru AI, but this is more from a maturity perspective -The link to the Knowledge Base articles use to be easily found, currently have to search via Google to access it. > > Overall, I enjoyed my experience with Iru. As someone who came from Jamf, Iru has simplified a lot of tasks which required me to spend time investigating and solving myself (including raising the issue with support team and rarely getting a solution out of it). Compared to Jamf it isn't as customisable, however Iru does its job well (including the available support team), and do recommend for any Mac admins only starting out in the MDM space. ----- Page: 1 / 20\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/71745/Iru?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/71745/Iru) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
