Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.
Hahn Rolf - PeerSpot reviewer
Solution elevates team collaboration and manages remote support efficiently
For me as a user in the service desk, there is already a lot of functionality in the product. I don't have any specific ideas for improvement on that side. Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management. For the end user, enhancements do not seem necessary at the moment. They could probably give the technician client a more modern interface, but the crucial factor is stable connectivity in a remote session. I see more potential for improvement on the administration side, like better transparency when a patch is installed. It would be useful for administrators to see the version and patch levels of the product easily. BeyondTrust could also enhance their quality control process before releasing a new build to ensure no new bugs are present. This is a common issue among software manufacturers.
Kelsey Braun - PeerSpot reviewer
Good remote services feature and easy to setup
With LogMeIn Pro, we could connect up to 10 computers, and having an option for something in between would be good. Like, we went from 10 to the next level, which was around 50 or so. If there was a tier, perhaps around 20, that I would have probably purchased, and it would have been a better fit for what I needed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"The solution is easy to use and it has good performance."
"Microsoft Intune has helped us by improving our security posture, leading to fewer security problems, and helping us understand where we have issues."
"I particularly appreciate the administration and security features, which can be deployed easily."
"There are so many features, but Windows Autopilot is one of the features that are very valuable for most customers."
"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"If the product works, remote access will be a benefit. To this point we have not had reason to have confidence in achieving that access."
"One of the largest values that we get from Bomgar Remote Support tool is the ability to assist our drivers with their mobile devices. We were unable to do this previously."
"The solution is stable."
"The remote reboot feature is particularly valuable for rebooting terminal servers that have power controls disabled."
"It has allowed us to quickly address the needs and issues of our end users."
"One of the great features is that service desk members can work together in a remote session."
"I would rate the technical support as a nine out of 10. They are polite, quick, and good with follow-ups."
"I would rate the product ten out of ten."
"We like that it records the remote sessions. If a technician is logged into a user remotely to fix any problem, it records the decision."
"If I could give it an 11 out of 10 I would, but I definitely give it a 10. It saves me time, it saves me headaches, it saves me a lot of problems, and I'm able to fix things quickly and move on. I can get in and out of the computer without anyone really even knowing that I fixed something."
"The remote connection is the most valuable, but we also use it for file transfer, that would be probably the second most valuable. The remote connection is a major time saver, it saves us from having to drive to each location."
"​It must have been straightforward. My IT person set it up for me. It is a friendly program."
"The most valuable feature is having it in a central location, all the different groups, and being able to ad-hoc or at will log on to whichever computer system I need to get to from a central spot."
"The remote services feature is definitely the most valuable, along with the capability to print remotely."
"You don't have to remember the password and the login all the time. Once you get it in there, it's in there, and you can go about your business."
"I can login to my office computer, go into all of my software, and work from a remote location.​"
"Being able to remote access my computer means I can work at night from my house."
 

Cons

"The documentation about the custom image setup could be better. Although Microsoft provides the steps to configure Intune or set up or deploy Intune, it doesn't have much information related to custom images. If you ask, "how can we deploy the custom image?" There is no information. The steps they mention ask you to connect to your on-premises environment or create your own image on the cloud itself once there is connectivity. But I needed to go to multiple websites to get all this information. I had to figure out how to upload the custom image if you want to use the on-premise custom image for Cloud PC. If you have the proper subscription, you must have the right access, like global admin or owner. Then you can add your custom image to that. There are no steps mentioned over there. Microsoft Intune doesn't have Chrome browser support. I would like to have that support because they will want it if we pitch the product to clients."
"In terms of what can be improved, I am looking for better enhancements regarding Apple management, not only on the mobile device, but also on the laptop."
"Cost is the biggest factor for us right now. Microsoft Intune and AD P1 together in a bundle is a good thing to have, but it is very costly compared to other products in the market. Otherwise, Microsoft Intune is the best."
"The time we have to wait to deploy policies has room for improvement."
"The security features should be improved."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"Intune needs to incorporate more tools to reduce the number of third-party applications we rely on."
"A more incisive reporting tool with automated progress updates and graphical representation would be beneficial, as the current manual method lacks efficiency and visual clarity."
"It needs better Linux support. We have had issues with Ubuntu specifically."
"​The possibility to integrate a chatbot would take this product to the next level​."
"The chat needs to improve. We need to enable set hours for chat support which are separate from the remote support assistance."
"I would have picked an internal team member who was going to stay on the team for more time. Shortly after we went live, we had a change of staff and lost the main implementer."
"One potential improvement is in the support department."
"Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management."
"The Remote support solution based on Bomgar has physical appliances deployed and leveraged to serve our multiple customers. Aging appliances are going RMA now and then."
"It lacks voice integration like the other products because they need the compression to support that large amount of concurrent sessions. We've had to sacrifice voice."
"​Everything has to be done over the web, via email, or something like that. You can't talk to a human being. That bothers me a lot.​"
"Remote Access for external and internal customers."
"At certain times of the day, during the "rush hour," it's very slow. I don't know if it's the latency of the internet or the amount of people on it in the afternoon at 4:00, 5:00pm. Getting data transferred takes a longer time than other times of the day."
"It's never cheap enough. If we got it for free, that would be perfect. But I know it's not and won't be free. It's always going to be too expensive for me because we're a small company."
"With Windows 10 we've had some issues with it crashing, and certain antivirus products cause it to fail. For the most part it's stable, but we do have an occasional crash mainly related to new operating systems. The new Microsoft Server and the new Windows operating systems sometimes have issues with it. But for the most part, in anything under, say, Windows 7, Windows 8, those seem to be pretty stable, and with the Microsoft Server 2012 and below, it's all stable. And I don't necessarily think it's LogMeIn. I think it may be Microsoft, to be honest with you."
"As far as the usability of it, I'd like to see if printing could be enabled in the basic version or the medium version. Some of the remote printing isn't available unless you go to the premium versions, and that's disappointing."
"The user interface needs improvement. Mostly, it's pretty intuitive for what I need to do, but the extra elements to it seem very complex, so I don't really try to even use those. For example, document sharing, file stuff. I can do the log-in part, but the additional features are kind of complex."
"It does go down sometimes. You try to login, it tells you the workdesk computer is not available. It does kick you off a lot."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing can be improved."
"We work in the charity sector, so a lot of our clients get Microsoft Premium licenses or Business Premium for free. They get ten licenses free, and a lot of our clients do not have more than ten staff members. They are getting the tool for free, so its cost is not an issue."
"It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there."
"We are partners, so we receive some discount. However, from the customer's perspective, Microsoft Intune's pricing is competitive with non-Microsoft technology, and the price is good compared to other market competitors."
"Microsoft Intune is included in the E5 license at no additional cost."
"Its licensing model is not complex, but it is very expensive compared to other solutions. They can bring more models and reduce the pricing. They should allow customers to select the features they want and price it accordingly."
"It's bundled with Business Premium and an E3 license, which is beneficial. If you have to pay extra, it's pricey, but with the bundled package, it's acceptable. They recently increased the Business Premium pricing, which we don't appreciate. The price increase and yearly commitment are causing some problems for us."
"The Intune license model is costly."
"Bomgar has a very fair pricing structure."
"The cost currently according to the client is a bit high for them."
"I rate Remote Support eight out of 10 for affordability. It's definitely not the cheapest product, but you get a good return on your investment."
"Pricing is reasonable for what the service is offering. If it is looked at from a purely remote control perspective then it might appear expensive, but it is the wider functionality that should be considered too."
"It is not the most cost effective solution on the market."
"BeyondTrust Remote Support is a very expensive product."
"I would prefer that it was more affordable."
"We believe for the money, it is worth what you pay."
"It is very good."
"Pricing is what I'm upset with. Now, that they bought everybody up, the price doubled."
"It is expensive, but in the long run we still come out ahead, because it saves us so much labor and downtime driving from one location to the other. In the end it's well worth the expense."
"The company does not scale the price based upon use."
"It is pricey. When they renew me, they always boost it up, I call them and they cut it back a little bit."
"If you subscribe the package of 100 Agents, but install 5, you are still paying for the 100 agent package."
"Pricing has been going up for just going back and forth between two computers. Last year I called and complained, they gave me a deal. This year, it's gone up to $350. I'm looking for a new source. It seems to be getting expensive for me to look back and forth. Come up with a different level of service for just communicating with two computers; I use it, maybe, five minutes a day."
"My company needs to make annual payments toward the licensing cost of the product. There are no extra costs in addition to the standard license fees of the product."
