Imagine if you could click just 1 button to deliver the best remote onboarding experience possible. Without liaising with other colleagues. Or relying on other buttons. You had absolute confidence that this button enabled the best experience, plus full compliance.
How would you guarantee that? Remote onboarding is a complex operation, involving many moving parts, from issuing a contract, to physically getting a laptop to someone’s desk. If one single company tried to offer this total onboarding experience, they’d fall short. They’d spread themselves too thin, and not excel in any area.
You’d need each of the independent, best-in-class onboarding tools to work seamlessly together.
Today, we’re launching one of those buttons: the Hofy x JumpCloud button.
We’ve partnered with the open directory platform provider, JumpCloud, to enable an all-in-one, industry-leading device onboarding solution. We’re empowering our customers to deliver devices anywhere in the world, auto-enrolled into JumpCloud’s Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution so they’re secure and ready-to-work on arrival. All with just 1 click.
How does device onboarding through Hofy x JumpCloud work?
When the world was predominantly office-based, and devices never left the office, device onboarding was much simpler. But for any company with remote or hybrid workers, and especially any company that hires across regions, there are considerable hurdles to overcome, from arranging logistics, to securing your environment and enabling a consistent employee experience from afar. Unless you work with us.
Through our partnership, we’ve removed all these hurdles. So device onboarding is a smooth, end-to-end process that now takes mere seconds.
For JumpCloud customers, setting up on Hofy is simple. Customers can automatically import employee data into the Hofy platform, so users are created instantly. A customer can order devices to ship anywhere in the world on Hofy, in just 1 click. And then Hofy handles the rest.
End users receive their work laptops in time for their first day, whether they’re in London, India, or Australia. Their laptops are enrolled into JumpCloud, and set up with all the applications and resources they need to start work immediately with secure, frictionless access so your new hire feels part of the team from the start and can become productive from day one.
Our partnership with JumpCloud provides best-in-class employee onboarding with the world’s best directory platform, making your employees productive, providing security and access with ease, and scaling seamlessly as your organisation grows.

Maximizing IT efficiency
What makes the Hofy x JumpCloud partnership so unique and exciting is the quality of the combined service and experience for managers and team members alike, with seamless merging of HR and IT functions.
“The partnership between JumpCloud and Hofy provides efficiency for IT teams, saving time and energy. Instead of spending time chasing devices and security postures, IT can focus on more strategic initiatives that drive business results. The partnership ensures that employees get the devices they need with the correct access from day one, as well as a coordinated offboarding process when an employee leaves the company.
