## Reviews

### "Multi-Platform MDM Solution" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *23 January 2019* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that it works on multiple platforms for an all-in-one solution for OSX/Windows devices.
> 
> **Cons**: Would like to see a cloud-based MDM for IOS devices offering for security purposes.
> 
> I really enjoyed using it at my previous employer and I've really enjoyed using it in the Utility sector for update patching and installing new applications on the fly without spending large amounts of time to go to each system to do it manually as done in the past for the OSX systems.

### "Filewave has been a great solution." — 5.0/5

> **Sandy** | *13 July 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Filewave makes it easy to manage our iPads.  From the very beginning of the process, they have taken every necessary step to assist in using their product.  I like the fact that I can run the software from either a MAC or a Windows machine.  It is easy to use and I can make changes, additions, or deletions very quickly.  Their customer and technical support is fantastic.
> 
> **Cons**: I can not think of any cons at this time.

### "Sub-par management software" — 3.0/5

> **Andrew** | *6 November 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This management software was pretty good with keeping the software up to date, but the process to get to that point was a bit painful.
> 
> **Cons**: I didn't like that every time you wanted to send out an update, you would have to do a model update and it would take a substantial amount of time for the update to finish. Your administrators using this management software wouldn't be able to use the software while this update was happening.

### "Makes My Job\!" — 4.0/5

> **Gena** | *25 January 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that when requests come in for a printer or software install, that I can open FileWave and send it out to my clients computers.  No more running around\!
> 
> **Cons**: The only con that I have is my own fault and that is keeping the filesets up to date.
> 
> I have been using FileWave to manage our schools' computers for many years now and I don't know how I would do my job without.  Everyday I get requests that a staff member needs a specific printer or an app/software and I can easily push them out with FileWave.  &#10;&#10;This is the third year of also using FileWave to mange our iPads and this is working great to add the requested apps that come in regularly.

### "High learning curve, but amazing scalability" — 5.0/5

> **Grey** | *29 January 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Filewave can do just about anything. In the past, if there was something I couldn't get FW to do, it was because I was unable to figure it out. Amazing customer support. They are alway ahead of the game when it comes to features and compatibility.
> 
> **Cons**: "In the past, if there was something I couldn't get FW to do, it was because I was unable to figure it out."&#10;&#10;Filewave is tricky to get the hang of so be prepared to read the manual.
> 
> Filewave is like having another team member and then some. Countless hours of touching devices.
