Hidden Costs Breakdown

Minimum Device License Requirements

Kandji requires purchasing licenses in blocks rather than per-device, forcing small organizations to pay for unused seats. The minimum block size has varied over time (historically 100 devices, more recently 25-50 devices).

Last time I looked into it, Kandji's pricing structure put me off. They sell in blocks of 100. So if you have 104 devices you need to buy 200 licences.

They promised us we could add devices as needed. I even had that written in an email. However, they rescinded that promise and required us to add devices in buckets of 50. That means, since we had 55 users, we had to pay for 100 licenses.

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Sold Separately

Kandji's macOS EDR security solution is a separate add-on not included in the base MDM pricing, adding significant cost for organizations requiring endpoint protection.

I've asked for Kandji and the price is 6$ for the AV solution, on top of the around 9$ per device

they quoted me much higher than my Jamf renewal. Also their sales reps are assholes

Example: True Cost for 25 Users

License (25 × $2.4000000000000004 × 12) $720/yr
Minimum Device License Requirements +$2,500-$15,000
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Sold Separately +$2.40/device/month
Estimated Year 1 Total ~$1,224
That's roughly 1.7× the advertised license price. The median Kandji contract is $29/yr across Vendr purchases.
