Automating Customer Trust to Meet Accelerated Demand

In early 2021, Jamf was experiencing unprecedented growth. Its customer pipeline was exploding, and the sales team was scaling quickly to keep up with demand. As a result, the company’s Security team struggled to respond to the ever-increasing customer questionnaires and one-off requests, leading to mutual frustration as sales cycles lagged. Meanwhile, the mounting backlog of sales-initiated requests took Security team members away from higher-ROI initiatives. 

Jamf’s Security team needed a comprehensive Customer Trust solution that would reduce the manual demands of responding to customer questionnaires, enabling customers to quickly and easily access security documentation and diligence materials. At the same time, the solution needed to enable strict controls on access to the information and provide clear visibility into the Security team’s impact on revenue. 

Jamf selected SafeBase in May 2021, and with SafeBase’s white glove onboarding and sales training sessions, was able to roll out security.jamf.com to its internal stakeholders plus its prospects and customers in just 90 days. Rather than submitting lengthy security questionnaires, prospects and customers can gain self-serve access to the portal almost instantaneously by leveraging SafeBase’s auto-approve feature. Meanwhile, the Security team can view real-time insights into portal views, document downloads, access requests, and more right from the SafeBase dashboard. 

Eliminating Security Questionnaires

Reducing the burden of sales-related administrative tasks on the Security team has allowed Jamf to build a “security-first” sales team and has dramatically reduced the number of inbound security questionnaires the Security team sees relative to the size of the company’s Sales team and pipeline.

Rolling out access to SafeBase to all of Jamf’s customer-facing roles has helped the Sales and Customer Success teams to focus on only the highest-priority prospect and customer needs. Jamf’s Smart Trust Center enables prospects below a certain threshold to self-serve the information they need to onboard Jamf and Knowledge Base empowers Sales and Success teams to expertly answer questions with the full depth of Jamf’s institutional security knowledge.

By The Numbers

Jamf’s Smart Trust Center has been viewed over 34,000 times since launching and nearly 10,000 documents have been downloaded by prospects and customers after signing over 1,000 NDAs. 

The Security team uses the time saved to double down on its trust-first culture, while shifting to a more customer-oriented model, including the creation of a path for customer-facing product SME employees to join the company’s Security team. 

The platform has also helped the Security team more concretely demonstrate its value. The team uses SafeBase’s native analytics to present the success of the Customer Trust program to the company’s executive team on a quarterly basis, including the fact that Jamf has collectively saved more than 4,000 hours using SafeBase, the equivalent of two full-time employees working 40 hour weeks over the same time period.
