|---|---|---|
| President at a wholesaler/distributor with 11-50 employees | 4.0 | I found IBM MaaS360 efficient for managing and rolling out multiple phones, with helpful features like app control. Setup was user-friendly, support was strong, and while we haven't used all its tools, it's delivered good value. |
| Cyber Security Practice Head at Extrapolix Technologies | 4.0 | As IBM business partners, we use MaaS360 for testing and demonstrations, finding its integration with TeamViewer valuable. However, it lacks some features compared to competitors like Sophos, making it challenging to replace existing solutions, though it offers operational ROI. |
| Chief Technology Officer at a computer software company with 51-200 employees | 3.5 | We use IBM MaaS360 as an MDM tool for our workstations to ensure SOC-2 compliance by updating operating systems, tracking software inventory, and controlling administrators. Although configuring policies is difficult, we chose it over the pricier Microsoft Intune. |
| Technical Consultant at MTRiver Consulting | 3.5 | My company's largest client, Coupang in Korea, manages PDA devices using IBM MaaS360, known for its Kiosk Mode enhancing security. However, it could improve its BYOD capabilities. I chose it due to my previous affiliation with IBM. |
| President at a wholesaler/distributor with 11-50 employees | 4.5 | I manage 30 phones and appreciate IBM MaaS360 for its remote control and easy setup features. However, setting up phones without SIM cards, like Apple's, poses challenges, as they automatically connect to networks before proper configuration, risking user issues. |
