We performed a comparison between Google Cloud Identity and VMware Workspace ONE based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"Intune's feature that I have found most valuable is its auto-pilot feature."
"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"The ability to send configurations to our systems is valuable, particularly as we don't have a regular Windows AD server. Our current environment doesn't have a Windows AD, which limits our ability to push GPOs. However, this is where the solution can step in and help us push policies."
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera"
"One of the most valuable aspects of Microsoft Intune is its seamless integration with Azure Active Directory, offering capabilities akin to Group Policy Objects."
"Although we have not looked at the whole product and explored it completely, we find that all the authentication features that we are using now are valuable."
"The Cloud Identity is well advanced in terms of features, applications, and the components that it is offering."
"It's easy to set up."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution is primarily used for single control and single sign which helps with the security and authentication of multiple devices."
"I think the first thing that is great is that it gives you a lot of features, like login, and then vaulted passwords and secure LDAP. It becomes easier for the end customer to leverage all those features without going to a higher SKU of G Suite."
"Google is always on its own. Google Cloud Identity is pretty good on every point."
"The initial setup is easy."
"It has all of the features that we need to use and that we want to use."
"VMware Workspace ONE has been stable so far."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable features of VMware Workspace ONE are security and having support for all the latest features that are coming out from Apple. They're pretty fast at adopting new features. This is one of the most vital aspects of mobile device management systems."
"We find it to be reliable."
"If an end-user has an issue with a device, the administration has the ability to remote access the device after approval from the end-user."
"The bigger vendors like VMware, Insight, and MobileIron can assign engineers to customers. You can work with them to develop the right competency to use the product."
"The product offers integration capabilities with third-party solutions."
"We would like to see support for Chrome and/or devices for Chromebooks."
"There should be more focus on mobile device security and integration."
"They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular. Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants."
"There is room for improvement in integrating additional features such as Purview and SharePoint activities into Intune."
"Having a dedicated configuration server that assists in modifying the configuration service, and creating personalized structures, interfaces, and web services could enhance usability."
"Microsoft Intune has a latency response time issue. The latency has room for improvement."
"I would like to see micro VPN. I like the way that some of the other providers have done something similar where, as you open that app on an end-point device, it creates a micro VPN straight into your device, which is quite a nice little feature. Also, Microsoft Intune relies heavily on its fellow products in the suite. It would be nice if Microsoft Intune could stand on its own two feet."
"China blocks Google and Google Play Store, which makes installation challenging. Microsoft Intune is a company software, which has to be installed to the app portal or Microsoft Software Center."
"Google Cloud Identify could make the technology used easier to understand as a layman making it more user-friendly."
"The customer service and support team is not so good."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"I want the tool to improve its support. It should also incorporate some functionalities. Currently, preparing presentations in Google is a pain point. The tool’s certain features like user provisioning are not intuitive as well. The product’s LDAP support is very poor. Clients do not trust the product due to the spam."
"The integration should be made easier."
"Google Cloud Identity the UI could improve."
"There is room for improvement in the configuration of their security policies. It seems quite basic."
"The solution needs to better integrate with Mac's OS."
"We'd like the customization to be better."
"Lacks a modern enterprise mobility management platform."
"VMware Workspace ONE can improve in virtual reality. Customers are now looking toward virtual reality devices. Though it supports virtual reality, it's treated as an Android device. Customers want to deal with VR devices, they want a specific VR tool. Not an Android device VR tool."
"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration."
"The application itself individuals are getting annoyed with it. They are looking to integrate with ABB applications regardless of whether it is Android or iOS based. We are wanting to shift from this application because of the integration issues we are facing."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite complex."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"We'd like to see a better connection to Microsoft Azure and a better connection with Check Point."
