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.

Secure remote access has transformed global support and simplified cross-platform collaboration
BeyondTrust Remote Support has good features that are not available in other apps, including rebooting without disconnection and the ALT + CTRL + deletion function. It's easier for data transfer, and multiple people can join a session easily. I think BeyondTrust Remote Support could be improved by being a bit more user-friendly in terms of connecting for a user. I would add that the zoom function allows us to zoom, but you can't particularly move around once you have zoomed in. Additionally, sometimes a remote connection cannot be established for unknown reasons, even if the host machine is clearly online. I have noticed that BeyondTrust ABS can sometimes be challenging to navigate, but it's no more challenging than other competitors.

Easy setup and effective support
I am with the company that sells LogMeIn Rescue. So, we engage with end customers, enterprise customers, manufacturing customers, BFSI customers, and healthcare customers. We try to find their use cases and provision our solution accordingly. For instance, if someone is in manufacturing and wants…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We are getting good compliance and we are able to save time, with workload reduction between 40 to 60 percent, and we are also getting very good security, which represent significant time-saving and money-saving aspects for the organization."
"From my perspective, I appreciate the scalability in Microsoft Intune and the portal management, which is extremely intuitive and very simple to use."
"Since the introduction of Microsoft Intune, we have had the problem completely taken care of."
"I have been using the Enterprise Application Management feature of Microsoft Intune, which enhances abilities when it comes to app discovery, deployment, and automatic updating."
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"We have not had any issues with the scalability."
"This improved control and visibility has helped my organization by reducing risks, saving time, and making compliance easier."
"Since implementing this solution, our company has grown substantially, and our talent pool has significantly expanded."
"The solution is stable."
"The integrated chat service with quick elevation to a full control support session has increased our service desk efficiency."
"We have a service offering called Remote Support; we can't deliver it without this tool, and the tool costs $10,000 while we make $100,000, so it's a pretty good ROI."
"We are able to be more effectively connected to computers and servers all over the world."
"It is effective. It is a good way of making sure that you're auditing what's going on. It also makes the end-user feel safe that you're not getting into things that you shouldn't be getting into because they're authorizing different areas for you to see. It is a pretty secure tool. It is important as far as security is concerned. It is very effective in terms of the support personnel being able to get the job done when they need to. It is easy for the end-user or the person we're helping out to understand how to allow somebody in to get the work done."
"Previously, we tried LogMeIn and we tried TeamViewer as well, and BeyondTrust had much better auditing capabilities and was putting a lot of effort into ensuring that the solution is secure enough."
"The most valuable feature of BeyondTrust Remote Support is the ability to control screens remotely."
"It's very secure, and it works very well."
"The stability is excellent, with 99.99% uptime, and it's one of the best in the industry."
"This allows us to remote into their computers or servers whenever they request speeding up the time to connect without having to send them a website and give them a code to get us in."
"I tried different software out there and LogMeIn Rescue has the best compatibility. Something else might work, but you have conflict with so many networks. LogMeIn has the best ratio of almost 99% connection. Whereas, with some other software, you are lucky if you get 80%."
"We have an application, our LogMeIn application, a one-click application, so when our employees in different locations click the application, they have remote access and are connected to the IT office, so they can help people out without having to call or talk to us."
"It is very straightforward to set up, use, install, and transfer sessions."
"With the product, I have never had an issue with it. I have never had to look up anything or call anyone."
"Before we were using this, everything either had to be in-person, or one computer at a time, and this has allowed us to access multiple computers, share between technicians, and support everybody inside and outside our company simultaneously."
"Has an easy way to remote on to a remote computer without having prior access to it."
 

Cons

"The biggest challenge is that the admin portal can feel complex, especially for administrators who are new to the platform."
"The policies we had in SCCM and AD offered features that are missing from Microsoft Intune."
"Microsoft Intune could be improved by providing more detailed and easier-to-navigate reporting and troubleshooting, especially when diagnosing policy failures."
"I heard some pain points. The main thing is the learning curve. It took time to implement. It was not the best product starting out of the gate."
"Intune is not the most user-friendly mobile device management platform available."
"Almost every day during the initial deployment, I would chat with technical support for solutions. They did not give me a suitable solution to solve the false positive alarms."
"We are facing issues with Apple products. With macOS and iOS, there are some difficulties with the updates because we cannot get full control of Apple products. In the case of Windows, it is fine, but in the case of Apple, we have some difficulties. We cannot control everything through Intune."
"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."
"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."
"I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices."
"The representative client can be a little buggy sometimes, but overall it works consistently."
"It needs better Linux support. We have had issues with Ubuntu specifically."
"With Linux, we had issues with Ubuntu specifically."
"The Bomgar representative console could do with modernising."
"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."
"The screen annotation tools could be expanded. I would like to see a text/typing annotation tool."
"For our company, great features, but too expensive."
"​Network browsing and connecting on the LAN, because if you can't see the computers on your network​, what good is the product?"
"I wish this product was tied to a Help Desk package so I could manage tickets and have an infrastructure, with this being the primary tool to troubleshoot."
"Nothing's perfect but I think it's really a great tool just the way it is. The suggestion that I made to them at their user advisory board is that they combine the two products, Rescue and Central, into one because you really should have both. A bunch of the other people in that meeting very much liked that."
"They have raised their price so high on all their products, it has left room for competitors to come in."
"Their ability to support mobile has been really problematic. I've seen other products that have done a better job in supporting mobile products. LogMeIn has just never been able to come up to par there, and that would be a detractor. They've been talking about supporting mobile for 10-plus years, and I really haven't seen any improvement on that."
"The app itself requires so many different updates and it requires us to rebuild it every time, and that's been a bit of a problem, over the last five years, in keeping it up to date for our clients."
"I do wish there was an application to manage all of the admin properties of the subscription, rather than having to use the web portal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing can be improved."
"Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap."
"Microsoft Intune is not cost-effective as a standalone product."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"Microsoft offers some licensing where it's included at no extra cost when customers are already using the licenses. In such a case, it's a really good value. If you have to buy the licensing for it, it's probably on par with other solutions. It isn't substantially more or less expensive. The great thing is that it is included in some of Microsoft's licensed packages. So, some customers don't have to spend additional money for it. Typically, most providers that support Intune do charge a management fee of some sort or some fee. Certainly, we're no exception."
"It is reasonable. When you have Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 license, it is already licensed in that license. So, you could say it is free."
"Licensing depends on how you are providing support to your enterprise, whether it's device-based or user-based."
"BeyondTrust Remote Support is a very expensive product."
"Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
"The licensing is concurrent and we spend about $10,000. It's my understanding that there aren't any extra costs beyond just the straight licensing."
"The cost currently according to the client is a bit high for them."
"I would prefer that it was more affordable."
"Bomgar has a very fair pricing structure."
"This product provides value for money."
"​The product maintenance and licensing costs are on the higher end, so I would carefully review how many licenses you need. The concurrent license model is helpful in this manner.​"
"The only downside is pricing. I think each technician license is somewhere around $100 or $120 a month now. So if you have a lot of technicians, it can get expensive, for a small business."
"The pricing is a little on the higher side, though.​"
"The cost of LogMeIn is high... I went with another product that was going to give me savings of 50%. One technician tested it, he gave us the thumbs up. Then once we moved all my technicians to it, but it didn’t work... Trying to move from LogMeIn hindered our performance and productivity and it was not worth the savings."
"I did look into a couple of other products, TeamViewer in particular, at one point. The price point of Rescue, compared to some of the other things that are in the marketplace right now, is high. But it's what I would call the "Cadillac" of the industry."
"It's definitely worth the value."
"The pricing is worth the value."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"Pricing is reasonable and easily offsets other costs, while resolving issues in a much quicker timeframe."
