What happened to Managed Software Center?

We are retiring Managed Software Center because the JAMF Self Service app is faster, more robust, faster, and works outside of UGA campus networks.


What if an app I want is NOT in Self Service?

If you are not able to find the software you need under the 'Browse' side panel of the Self Service app, please submit a ticket to Franklin OIT and we can assist you with installing the desired app. If there is a high enough demand for an app that is not in Self Service we usually add it to the list. Also, certain apps can be installed in your User Applications folder without the need for admin, and more details on that can be found here.
