Unless it's changed since the last time I played with it osquery doesn't upload anything on its own–it's just a local tool/agent that you can use to gather data. Carbon black is a good example of something like that. JAMF I believe gathers application usage data but nothing as in depth as what's being discussed. It's also comically handicapped. It somehow manages to do a poor job of everything it tries to do so "the world's largest online Mac administrator community" is forum post after forum post of half understood franken-scripts. I used to think it was milquetoast but after sitting through their sales reps crapping all over open source software (despite extensive use of OSS libs in their products) and seeing it fail to do the most basic stuff out of the box my opinion is that it's over priced crap.
