The Jamf Software Center is a self service portal on your Mac device that allows you to install approved applications and updates on your Montclair State University managed Apple computer. The document below will guide you through logging in and accessing packages.
Please Note: If you do not have the Software Center icon that means your machine is not configured properly and you should reach out to the IT Service Desk or your local technology support team.
Software Center Icons
You can access the software center from your dock or applications folder.
