Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is the UEM capabilities.""Application deployment and keeping the devices secure no matter where they are, by having this cloud solution — that has been great.""For our office workers who are not based in Norway, when we order the PC, we can do some of the settings for them. These are standardized settings. We can set them up exactly as they are in Norway so that they're the same.""We can securely manage both company-owned devices and personal devices enrolled in our BYOD program.""This product works very well for companies already using the full Microsoft suite.""The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored.""The ability to manage devices with different sets of policies is most valuable.""Intune enables us to manage our devices from anywhere."

More Microsoft Intune Pros →

"The tool's most valuable feature is a remote connection to the devices. You can also push and lock applications. It helps us lock devices for professional use to control which applications can be installed.""Payloads, application publishing, and cataloging features are valuable to our customers.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""Its dashboards are valuable. It is easy to access dashboards and implement policies.""The solution's customer support is good.""This solution is very dynamic. I can do what I need to do with it.""The most valuable features of 42Gears SureMDM include tracking location and pushing applications.""The solution is stable and reliable."

More 42Gears SureMDM Pros →

"The product is capable of acting in many different ways to help secure architecture.""One key feature is secure application delivery, which enables the secure delivery of mobile and web applications to end-user devices. This ensures data protection and compliance with corporate policies.""We have seen improvements in compliance management on the devices.""The MAM applications of the product are great.""ShareFile, in particular, is valuable with its ease of sharing, and the best category security that is in the hands of users.""A valuable feature of Citrix Endpoint Management is that it's stable. The stability is not a challenge among the move to the cloud."

Cons
"There is improvement needed in integrating with the installed Office solutions versions, such as Office 2019. The Office 365 integrates without a problem.""Intune's areas for improvement revolve around security and certificate management.""Enhancements for managing MacOS more comprehensively would be beneficial.""The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded.""Intune lags all of its competitors in terms of report generation.""The solution can have some compliance problems in general and the end-point user can bypass easily the company policies in Intune.""There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements.""I wanted to check if there is any provision at the Intune level to restrict certain things, such as a website, but unfortunately, that feature is available only in Microsoft Defender. Intune has web filtering capabilities, but they are only useful for protection from malicious websites, whereas we would like to be able to restrict a website. For example, YouTube is a clean website. No one would identify it as a malicious website, but if we want to stop the end-users from going to that website, we have to go for another product, such as Microsoft Defender or another third-party proxy solution. It would be great if this capability is included in Intune."

More Microsoft Intune Cons →

"42Gears SureMDM needs to improve support because it may take around one to two days to receive a revert.""The product is not so convenient to deploy or to configure.""As a partner, we consider 42Gears to be a unified endpoint management (UEM) solution. So, we should be able to manage users with this particular solution. This is something that is currently not there. It is probably an area for improvement for 42Gears.""User creation on Mac must be improved.""The solution’s pricing could be made cheaper.""The dashboards could be improved.""The user interface and customization features are not the best and could be improved."

More 42Gears SureMDM Cons →

"Support for inventory management of Apple devices should be added.""The tool’s battery usage was high.""Citrix often depends on other services like backend data centers, network security, and application firewalls. Issues in these areas can be misinterpreted as Citrix issues by users.""Requires integrating with ABM before enabling some of the features.""Citrix needs to improve the architecture. They also need to strengthen the application integration. They keep referring to some things to be required as security, and they keep selling the next level and on-premise separately. They should give the customer the opportunity to decide whether they want to use the next level on-premise or on-cloud, but they should not charge additional fees if the customer wants to deploy the next level on-premise because the customer is already being charged as the end user. They should allow next level on-premise optimization without any additional charges."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Microsoft Intune stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its ability to secure all devices under its management and the flexibility that the solution offers its users.

    A computing services manager notes, "Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."

    The head of IT engineering at a financial services company writes, "The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types: we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager (MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company details on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."

    SureMDM is an intuitive and powerful enterprise mobility management (EMM) solution for Android, iOS, and Windows platforms. You can secure, monitor and manage company owned devices for dedicated use as well as employee owned devices used to access company data (BYOD). SureMDM incorporates all aspects of EMM such as Mobile Application Management, Mobile Device Management and Mobile Content Management.

    XenMobile is a comprehensive solution to manage mobile apps, data and devices, available both on-premises and in the cloud. Users have single-click access to all of their apps from a unified corporate app store and IT can easily configure, secure and support mobile devices. With XenMobile technology, IT can meet their compliance and control needs while giving users the freedom to experience work and life their way.
