Is user initiated enrollment for macOS devices enabled by default?

User initiated enrollment for macOS devices is not enabled by default. This means that an administrator must explicitly configure this feature within the Jamf Pro environment to allow users to initiate the enrollment process themselves.

This approach helps maintain security and control over the enrollment process, as it ensures that only devices that have been approved and appropriately configured by an administrator can be enrolled into the management system. By requiring deliberate action from an administrator to enable this feature, organizations can enforce policies and manage resources more effectively, avoiding unintended enrollments that may compromise security or management efforts.

Further, the option for user initiated enrollment being optional aids in offering flexibility for organizations to decide if they want to empower users to enroll their own devices or manage the process in a more controlled manner, which could also involve different workflows based on the organization's specific needs.
