ACT Menlo Park holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Jamf Self Service+ has 277 ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Jamf Self Service+'s written reviews are positive against 50% of ACT Menlo Park's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Jamf Self Service+ ships an update every 2 months, ACT Menlo Park every 8 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
