We performed a comparison between Microsoft Intune and Okta Workforce Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in Unified Endpoint Management (UEM)."The policy and compliance monitoring of devices and the software deployment are most valuable."
"We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android."
"I can see that the patch management process is much improved with the bundled patch management option available in Microsoft Intune compared to the KPI deployment required by the other deployment solutions."
"Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click."
"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."
"The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance."
"It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails."
"One of the best features is Windows Autopilot because if you change any of your devices, whatever security policies and compliance policies that applied can be easily migrated to the new devices. Windows Autopilot gives you that flexibility."
"Having a single sign-on to all our applications."
"The most valuable features of Okta Workforce Identity are SSO, MFA, and beneficial feature sets."
"Enabled MFA to access federated applications as well as increased user satisfaction through improved provisioning times and more reliable processes."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"Its simplicity and its integration with various vendor-agnostic platforms are the most valuable features."
"They have good push authentications."
"I like the tool's workflows, which is user-friendly. It can integrate with different applications. I particularly like that users are delighted to access their applications without the hassle of entering their username and password each time. It truly enhances user-friendliness."
"The product’s most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."
"Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"I would like to see the ability to deploy custom packages as a Windows 64-bit package, as opposed to the Windows 32-bit, which is the only one available now."
"The reports that are generated aren't so great. They don't give a lot of meaning so far, but that could be down to user knowledge than the actual reporting side of things. I'm not a big user of it, but I was a bigger user of MaaS360, and we used to be able to run weekly and monthly reports. In the case of any deviations. we'd get a warning immediately. That's not so easy to do or to get in place for Intune. This could be just a user issue, but when I compare both, that's the only thing that's lacking for me."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"There is still a gap between SCCM and Intune, especially in the reporting, inventory, and software deployment areas."
"There could be more wizard-driven policy development or creation. Some of the policies can get quite complex. If they have a wizard that assists the administrators in creating the policy, that will be a great job."
"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"
"In some setup cases, there are issues with attributes not going in properly."
"I would appreciate it if Okta Workforce Identity becomes more user-friendly. Its API technology is complicated. Certain applications may pose challenges in terms of integration, especially when they require IDP technologies that aren't easily codable. While I can't provide specific examples, some applications may not integrate with Okta Workforce Identity."
"The ability or the options in the solution for changing the look and feel are not good enough because in our partner portal, essentially what they have is an ugly admin interface."
"The solution should have greater on-premises availability, not just cloud and more package customization in its processing."
"Okta Workforce Identity could improve the support system, they are too slow."
"On the admin side, we can create our own passwords instead of generating one, which is usually difficult to explain to a user."
"The solution's user interface needs to be improved and made easy."
"The solution lacks an on-premises deployment model so it can't offer a hybrid solution. It would be ideal if clients had options that weren't just cloud-based."
