Open (and/or Free) vs Closed Source – Steel Cage Death Match
Speakers: Allister Banks & Ben Toms
his talk is a face-off between folks with experience making Mac lifecycle management work from each side of the fence, with the audience rendering judgment. Split into 5 winner-takes all rounds, this year you get to see grown adults cry in public, and keyboard gangsters lay down the smite because someone on the internet is RONG.
We’ll go over solving the following problems with tools from the JAMF Casper Suite & the free and/or open source alternatives: everything imaging and deployment, remote assistance and orchestration, software management and licensing, configuration and settings, inventory and reporting.
Hopefully it all ends ‘happy clappy’, but these fighters are coming in no-holds-barred or punches pulled, so be ready for fireworks.
