Featured Reviews

HM
Architect at Nagarro
Has helped define budget limits and monitor cost impact during long-term solution planning
There are areas in Azure Cost Management that could be improved; sometimes, as a start user or junior developer, if I try to understand which service consumed how much cost and look at different charts in the dashboards, it's difficult to understand which chart is representing what. Those interfaces could be made simpler. I'm not much into analytics patterns, so Azure Cost Management's Cost Analytics feature hasn't particularly helped my organization understand spending patterns.

Director at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
Automated onboarding has saved hundreds of hours and now standardizes device security globally
In terms of how Ivanti Neurons for UEM can be improved, I think there's potential for automation of some repetitive tasks. The device provisioning process has already become very close to zero-touch, but the patch deployment is still scheduled and policy-driven. As a result, I believe we can reduce endpoint administration further. I also think the number of integrations and the scalability of the tool can be improved, along with customer service, as we've encountered some issues in certain countries. Regarding the needed improvements, particularly concerning integrations or customer service challenges, we have had problems with integration with some third-party tools requiring additional configuration and testing. Occasionally, we also experienced delays between systems, particularly with user group changes and device compliance updates. The accuracy and reliability of output from Ivanti's AI can be improved. We notice that the AI-driven insights are useful, but there are anomalies and some false positives. Since we are still in a validation period, I cannot provide a definitive mark, but I believe that accuracy should be enhanced, especially for more complex and environment-specific issues where human intervention is still needed.
