Rave Group LLC using Everything's that Jump Cloud offers for all companies thank you

Jumpcloud is a little bit of everything - up front it is a replacement for on-prem identity management systems (LDAP, Active Directory, etc.), but it can integrate with those, if you need it to. It can also help support cloud-based sso, and user self-management of passwords. It can do MDM and remote scripting, and is all managed through a light touch client software that is monolithic-imaging friendly.
It's main purpose is to act as a cloud-based active directory replacement. However, you can also manage just about any smart device or PC, including deploying scripts and using policies.
