Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance
One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

Really good in terms of content delivery and network bandwidth optimization
Using Adaptiva is really straightforward. Users need to have some end-user computing and networking knowledge to use the solution. The project or implementation team we worked with had good technical knowledge. I really liked the solution's performance. Adaptiva helped us with network bandwidth optimization and content delivery. Overall, I rate the solution eight and a half out of ten.

Automation has reduced repetitive endpoint maintenance and keeps our educational devices compliant
Every software has some drawbacks and cons. For Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management, I think the first improvement I would suggest is to simplify initial configuration. The process to make endpoint enrollment, device grouping, and configuration easier, particularly for organizations managing different categories of devices, would be helpful. If the initial configuration is simplified, better workflows for shared computers, labs, faculty workstations, and administrative devices would make it easier to apply different software and security policies without duplicating configuration. For my work, I would suggest one improvement that would make my experience with Ivanti smoother than before. I would want Ivanti to clearly explain the root cause when something fails, such as when a patch deployment or automated remediation fails. It shows the error code, but when we are doing a lot of work, it kind of makes a lot of hassle to read the documentation or ask an AI what kind of error it is facing. My recommendation here is to show the issue, show the full explanation of how it is working, where it failed, and show whether the issue can be safely resolved automatically without needing a third party. I think it needs a lot of improvement. First of all, centralized management and scalability can be improved, particularly the ability to manage endpoint configuration, which would be more helpful for my field of work. Regarding scalability, centralized deployment and policy enforcement can help maintain consistency across larger device fleets without configuring every endpoint individually. I think another improvement would be detailed failure diagnostics, flexible maintenance scheduling, controlled policy rollouts, and clearer reporting on whether the fix will cause any issues.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"What I value most about Microsoft Intune is that it is a cloud-native tool and is embedded into Premium at a reasonable cost."
"We are a Microsoft 365 E5 customer and the product promises the capabilities that we need and is available without additional cost."
"The solution has reduced the risk of security breaches by 30%."
"The user experience of Microsoft Intune is quite good because there's not much disturbance in the background; it's just running in the background."
"Microsoft Intune is a core product, and it's very stable"
"It is very easy for me to configure all the things. Once I create policies and applications in Intune, it is very easy for us to enroll users."
"If you are looking for endpoint protection and compliance, Microsoft Intune is definitely a go-to product."
"It is a wonderful product; I would advise others to go for it because it is definitely helpful for an enterprise and has been improving constantly."
"Adaptiva is really good in terms of content delivery and network bandwidth optimization."
"A positive impact of using Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management on my organization is the ability to perform mass updates in the environment, as today we are able to update hundreds of thousands of computers at once."
"Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management is a great tool for managing our team and company assets."
"The solution is good, it's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"We have very good technical support; when we had big issues, the support was fantastic, I have nothing to complain about, and it was important for us to have that level of security from the company."
"The most effective feature of Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management is its reactivity when a patch is released before its due date."
"Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management portal management is the best portal for security endpoints I can use."
"The best features Ivanti Neurons for UEM offers include automation capabilities that help reduce manual work and improve efficiency."
"Ivanti's unified platform for IT and security operations helps streamline processes, especially because the manual intervention of having to constantly monitor, update, and maintain endpoints and applications has significantly reduced by leveraging Ivanti Neurons for UEM."
 

Cons

"Packages on different identity provider platforms that are not supported present challenges for package installation."
"Intune lags all of its competitors in terms of report generation."
"I have realized that while it provides a lot of granular control on Windows devices, it has comparatively less functionality for Mac."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"There is room for improvement in Microsoft Intune's understanding and user experience as the interface is easy to navigate for deploying applications and finding user information, but I think there should be a reduction in dependency on on-premises infrastructure and focus on artificial intelligence and automation to improve further."
"Technical support is not great. If you open up a case, it may remain there for a long time."
"Intune needs to incorporate more tools to reduce the number of third-party applications we rely on."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"It would be good if Adaptiva had everything on the cloud rather than having one server on-premises."
"Customer support is really poor."
"From my perspective of having just moved away from the product, I would probably give it a six."
"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management has not positively impacted my organization; we have unfortunately struggled with it for the past several years and we have continued to struggle with the platform even with trying to get help from the Ivanti side."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti. The test team or the testing procedures are flawed because they release new versions with numerous basic issues."
"The price being quite high and the limited container storage are areas that have room for improvement."
"The ticket resolution workflow requires duplicate documentation, which does not add value and increases the time required to process tickets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"Generally, we get favorable discounts, so it's not too bad. Obviously, we're looking at decreasing those wherever we can to bring value back to the public purse because it's all charity based. It's all publicly funded."
"There is a license required to use the solution. If you're core users in Office 365, for example, you have Outlook email and E3 license, this is only email. You have to buy an EMS license to have Microsoft Intune. It is expensive."
"It's monthly for us, but it's built into the license cost that we pay our IT each month. It's maybe 129 Kroner per head, which translates to £10. There are some additional costs. Our IT had to set up and configure their own server, so there is an extra cost for that, but I'm not sure what that costs."
"The cost of the license and the features are justified for myself as a technical person."
"The price is reasonable, but they should lower it a bit to make it more competitive. It's cheaper than AirWatch and other products, but I still feel like Microsoft can make a base version or with Exchange online or a la carte only Intune version which will be useful. A customer who doesn't want to go full-fledged E3 or E5 can take out or consume an Intune solution only for their purpose, and we want to target that customer."
"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."
"The purchase of the product was handled by someone else."
Information not available
"The license can get expensive if you have a lot of nodes."
"The price of MobileIron UEM is very good."
"The solution is affordable."
"The solution is expensive compared to other products."
"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."
"For the one that works with SCCM, it is relatively inexpensive at $8 USD per node, yearly. The standalone product has two versions; the one that patches servers is about $45 USD annually and the version that patches workstations is about half that price at $22 USD."
"While the price is a bit high, it may be equitable with the features one gets with the product, such as that involving the interface."
