Addigy Amplify
Your Macs are already enrolled. Seeing them live shouldn’t mean migrating them — Addigy Amplify adds an always-on agent to Macs that Jamf, Intune or another MDM already manages — live dashboards, screen sharing and a terminal, while the MDM keeps OS updates and settings.

Understand MDM overlays before you buy one
Most product pages skip this. We start here — so you buy a capability, not a buzzword.
What is an MDM overlay?
An overlay agent adds live tools to Macs while your existing MDM keeps enrolment and policy.
Your MDM on its own vs MDM plus Amplify — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Your MDM on its own | Addigy Amplify |
|---|---|---|
| Freshness of device data | Whatever the last check-in reported | Live, from an always-on agent (Addigy’s claim) |
| Helping a user on a Mac | A separate remote-support product | Screen sharing from Addigy’s console |
| Running a quick command | A script queued for the next cycle | SSH or Live Terminal straight away |
| Fixing a drifted Mac | Wait for the policy to reapply | Drift remediation through the agent |
| What changes in the MDM | — | Nothing; enrolment and the push certificate stay put |
| What it is NOT | — | An MDM, a Windows patcher, or a published price |
The cheapest test is a small pilot: put the agent on a handful of problem Macs and time real tickets with and without it.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
Agent
An always-on Addigy agent runs on every Mac you add, so device state reaches the console as it changes; Addigy describes this as real-time, not polling-based, visibility.
Your MDM
Enrolment, the Apple push certificate, OS updates and device settings remain with Jamf, Intune or whichever MDM holds the Macs; Amplify replaces none of these jobs.
Console
Compliance dashboards, screen-sharing sessions, the terminal, bulk app jobs and exportable reports are all run from Addigy’s console rather than from your MDM’s admin screens.
Hosting
Addigy is cloud-only, built on Google Cloud, AWS and MongoDB Atlas; each is listed as a US subprocessor holding IP, device name and device data, with no region to pick.
An always-on agent on each Mac — live tools from Addigy’s cloud, while your existing MDM keeps updates and settings.
Six capabilities. See, act, fix.
Addigy Amplify adds live Mac tools on top of the MDM you already run.
Real-time Mac visibility
The agent supplies the live device view an MDM lacks between check-ins; Addigy pitches it as visibility layered on the MDM you keep.
Live compliance dashboards
Dashboards show which Macs meet your baseline now, not at the next check-in, and the results export as reports for an audit file.
Screen sharing from the console
Open a screen-sharing session to a Mac from Addigy’s console, so helping a Mac user does not hinge on a separate remote tool.
SSH and Live Terminal
Run commands on a Mac over SSH or Addigy’s Live Terminal to read logs or restart a stuck service as soon as a ticket arrives.
Bulk app deployment
Push an app to many Macs in one job through the agent, next to whatever app catalogue your MDM already delivers to them.
Drift remediation
When a Mac slips from the state you expect, the agent can put it back rather than leaving it until the MDM’s next cycle.

Want a live, India-context walkthrough for your environment?
Book a guided demo →An MDM sees a Mac when it checks in. Amplify adds a live agent without moving a single enrolment.
Here’s what genuinely sets it apart — and exactly where it stops.
Live control without moving a single Mac
Changing MDM means re-enrolling devices, rebuilding profiles and a risky cut-over. Amplify avoids that: Addigy calls it an agent-based overlay, so Macs stay enrolled where they are and gain live dashboards, screen sharing and a terminal. Addigy sums it up as “No MDM Migration Required”.
Device state now, not at the next check-in
MDMs act when a device checks in. Microsoft documents macOS check-ins in Intune about every eight hours after the first hour, and Jamf Pro’s default recurring check-in is 15 minutes. Addigy’s always-on agent reports as things change, which it calls real-time. That is a vendor claim, so measure it on your fleet.
A Mac specialist beside a Windows-first MDM
Plenty of organisations run Intune because Microsoft 365 already includes it, and the Mac fleet gets less attention than Windows. Addigy published an “Addigy Amplify for Intune” video in July 2026 for that exact pairing: the Mac team gets live tools while Intune keeps enrolment and policy.
Where it stops
Addigy is blunt: without an MDM you cannot update the OS or manage device settings, and Amplify is no substitute for MDM enrolment or the Apple push certificate. It covers Macs only, with no Windows or Linux patching. No price is published, there is no India data region and no IST support cover.
The numbers behind the platform
What an Addigy Amplify pilot looks like
Pick the Macs that hurt most
List the Macs whose problems take longest to fix today, note which MDM holds them, and choose a pilot group of a few dozen.
Agree what stays with the MDM
Write down that OS updates, settings, enrolment and the push certificate remain in your MDM, so nobody expects Amplify to do them.
Roll the agent to the pilot
Install the Addigy agent on the pilot Macs, confirm they show live in the console, and compare its view with the MDM inventory.
Work real tickets with it
Handle live tickets with screen sharing and the terminal, push one app in bulk, and log how long each fix took against before.
Overlay, switch or stop
With pilot numbers in hand, keep Amplify as an overlay, weigh a full move to a new MDM, or remove the agent and walk away.
The review scoreboard
Modelled on Gartner Peer Insights structure. *Counts and breakdowns are illustrative pending verified review collection.
Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“We kept Intune for policy, but our Mac techs now open a terminal from Addigy in seconds instead of waiting on a sync.”
“The live dashboard flagged eleven Macs with FileVault off before our MDM’s next inventory had picked any of them up.”
“Bulk app pushes to the design team’s Macs went out as one job, and the exported report closed an audit query.”
“Remember it is not an MDM. We still needed Jamf for macOS updates, so we budgeted for two tools, not one.”

Which approach fits you?
Honest fit signals — because the fastest way to lose your trust is to pretend one product wins every scenario.
Choose Addigy Amplify if…
- ✓Your Macs sit in Intune, Jamf or another MDM and you want live dashboards, screen sharing and a terminal without moving them
- ✓Your Mac team waits on check-in cycles to learn whether a fix landed, and wants device state as it changes
- ✓You want to trial Addigy’s agent on a few Macs before deciding whether a full MDM switch is ever worth it
Compare alternatives if…
- ✓You need one agent across Windows, macOS and Linux patching — NinjaOne, Splashtop AEM and LogMeIn Central cover more than Macs
- ✓Your MDM is Jamf Pro 11 or later — Jamf Remote Assist already brings Mac screen sharing and a terminal
- ✓You would rather replace the MDM outright — Addigy MDM starts at $8.25 per Mac per month in Addigy’s pricing FAQ
Do not expect…
- ✓OS updates, device settings or Apple enrolment from the overlay — Addigy says those still need an MDM
- ✓A published Amplify price, an India data region or IST support hours
- ✓Any Gartner, Forrester or IDC analyst placement — Addigy has none

What do check-in waits cost your Mac team?
Drag the sliders (Macs under management; IT-hour cost). Estimates model time lost waiting on MDM check-ins, opening a separate remote session and re-fixing drifted Macs at an assumed 1.5 hours per Mac a year, with 70% of it removed by a live agent. Both figures are assumptions. Illustrative.

The 8 questions to ask every vendor
Take this into your next vendor call — including ours.
Which MDM holds the Macs today, and will it keep OS updates, settings and enrolment once Amplify is added?
Are all the devices you need to see Macs? Amplify adds nothing for Windows or Linux, so those need another tool.
Does your MDM already give screen sharing or a terminal, as Jamf Pro does with Remote Assist? Avoid paying twice.
Is US-hosted device data acceptable in your DPDP review? Addigy lists GCP, AWS and MongoDB Atlas, all US.
Will your auditors accept SOC 2 Type 2 and SOC 3 without ISO 27001? If health data is involved, ask about the BAA.
Can your team live with US-based support and EU hours, with no IST cover, for an agent on every Mac?
Has Addigy quoted Amplify per Mac in writing, with the term and any minimum? No Amplify price is published.
If the pilot fails, how will the agent come off every Mac, and who owns that removal job?
