Question on: JumpCloud
[Are there better tools to manage Cloud and on premise environment?](/discussions/41384-are-there-better-tools-to-manage-cloud-and-on-premise-environment)

I want to know if using others market tools will be easy to control all on-premise and cloud resources with the same application.

There are OTHER tools, but I haven't found BETTER tools. Some of the IAM providers are focused only on the directory and not so much the device management. You would need multiple tools to do what JumpCloud does.

Question on: JumpCloud
[Where can we build a repository of Commands for Installing Software and Managing systems](/discussions/41366-where-can-we-build-a-repository-of-commands-for-installing-software-and-managing-systems)

Commands are a powerful feature, it would be great to have a repo of commands for installing software and managing systems.

I maintain a git repo of scripts. These can be added to the JumpCloud commands and assigned/run there. This is a manual process, however. But I have yet to find any management tool that can pull scripts from a central repo to be used elsewhere.

Fastpath is used by numerous Audit firms in various ways. Please contact us for more details (info@gofastpath.com)
