Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.
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.
GouravSuri - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to use and offers a good UI to users
In terms of the product's security features, the solution allows you to have team meetings, and you can also use it for remote access and screen-sharing capabilities. TeamViewer is typically like any other team collaboration software. I recommend the product to others since it is a good product for collaboration purposes. There are no connectivity challenges associated with the product. In terms of benefits, I would say that it is a good tool for collaboration, productivity, and virtual work as it saves a lot of commute time for the employees. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"While I don't think you can ever have full visibility and control, Intune certainly allows us to see the applications being used and tells us if things like Windows patches aren't applied to machines. It does a good job. That visibility makes life a little easier."
"It is a very stable and scalable cloud-only solution."
"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."
"Its price is reasonable. It is a part of our M365 suite."
"Intune's security features for Apple iOS and Mac OS are helpful. We can check enrollment, manage public and private settings, and manage the organization's data using security key features."
"The Microsoft Windows Autopilot and Defender policies are the most valuable features of this solution."
"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."
"Overall, I like Intune as a solution and would rate it nine out of ten."
"This product "just works" (without fail) and is dead-easy for clients to connect with."
"It has allowed us to quickly address the needs and issues of our end users."
"The time savings that we experience from being able to get hands on with a device experiencing trouble, and the time to resolve an issue is substantial."
"The jump to feature function is the most valuable to us as it allows us to directly remote control customers."
"We have not encountered any issues with stability. Updates leave us with less than 30 minutes of downtime."
"Bomgar has given us the ability to manage the majority of our calls from a remote location making response times quicker and more efficient."
"I would rate the product ten out of ten."
"The solution has been very stable. We haven't had issues at all. It doesn't crash or freeze. There aren't bugs or glitches either."
"It's very easy to set up."
"It is a scalable product."
"This is a unique solution that is very easy to install."
"We also use it a lot for remote site assistance. We've set up our internal authentication for unattended access to our remote sites. That makes it very easy and convenient to remotely connect with our users and our client machines whenever we need to. It's set as a direct, secure connection. As long as the station has internet access, we can see it and it makes remote support very simple."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is user-friendliness."
"From my perspective, the most important is the login."
"The product is quite stable. The performance is good."
"Our computers are spread amongst six physical locations. TeamViewer reduces the need to travel to those offices to help staff."
 

Cons

"It needs incorporation of Knox, ZeroTouch, etc."
"The interface is not as modern as some competitors in terms of single pane of glass visibility across the entire landscape. It has a very Azure vibe and may not be as graphically appealing as other products."
"The worst aspect is the reporting."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"I think there should be a better tracking of the cell phones used on the Intune."
"I am not involved in the day-to-day with Intune, but we have gone with a different product for updating mobile device software. We do not integrate many of our mobile devices that are not Microsoft-based devices, such as Dell laptops, with Intune."
"Currently, BitLocker does not support BYOD enrollment, which is a product limitation."
"Applying security recommendations can be difficult in Microsoft Intune. Sometimes, they give you recommendations, but you need a different server to manage the pieces, or you have to go to each device individually. However, it has been improving. Before, there were certain policies you could not implement directly in Intune, but now I see progress. I would like to see more improvement in policy management, similar to how we used group policies on-premises."
"It is expensive. Its initial setup was also a little bit involved, but it was nothing that we couldn't eventually handle. Currently, it has the ability to share screens. Somebody having an issue with their phone can share their screen with a technician sitting at a computer. It would be nice to also be able to control phones remotely, but this could be a limitation of a phone's operating system."
"iOS interactive support would be a cool addition. Right now it's a non-interactive view."
"We sometimes have trouble accessing servers because of credentialing and multifactor authentication issues with PAM."
"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."
"There were a few employee devices that failed during the initial deployment, which required a second deployment."
"I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices."
"Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management."
"It needs better Linux support. We have had issues with Ubuntu specifically."
"Considering the earlier versions of the product, I think TeamViewer used to slow down the systems."
"TeamViewer could improve by having support for other operating systems, such as Linux."
"We'd like to be able to work from mobile to desktop and vice versa. We'd like more mobility."
"The file transfer functionality crashes sometimes."
"The performance could always be better."
"Some of the additional features, like the meeting stuff, is making it too cluttered."
"On occasion, when remote connection process can't connect to a machine, the error messages aren't always helpful to tell you why you can't connect, as the message doesn't help troubleshoot whether it is too slow, too much interference, etc. I usually have to run to another computer and figure out what is going on, then restart it. The diagnostics could be improved."
"In the next release, I would prefer to have a voice integration and collaboration feature to support multiple teams simultaneously."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is offered as part of a Microsoft standard bundle. The pricing can be competitive to Airwatch, and Maas360."
"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."
"Its pricing seems reasonable."
"I am satisfied with the pricing."
"If you ask the accountant or the finance department, they'll tell you that it is way too expensive, but when I look at the cost and compare it with the value you actually get, it's more than fair."
"It's reasonable. They're not giving it away, but it's reasonable."
"Intune is available as an individual product, but it also comes with Office 365 Premium or an Enterprise license, and the price varies for each version."
"It is expensive. The cost depends on the license that we choose."
"​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.​"
"We believe for the money, it is worth what you pay."
"It is expensive. Performance-wise, it is pretty good, but we're less happy with the cost. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. It is also on a per-technician basis. A certain number of concurrent technicians can log in and access all the features."
"It is pretty pricey. It is not cheap. The licensing structure is not cheap. The tool is not cheap, but in the long run, it is well worth it. It is probably one of the best on the market because it is just so easy to use and easy to deploy. It gave us the ability to see what everybody was doing. It held people accountable. It gave us the accountability that we needed."
"Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
"Their pricing is a little bit high but it's negotiable depending on the type of client. It is approximately R6,000 per year for a user. I would rate the pricing a four out of five."
"The setup is complex. Purchase the remote implementation service and make them slow down and work with you."
"The solution is subscription-based and depends on the number of admin users."
"TeamViewer offers a free version to try. Download and give it a shot. See what it's like and if you like it, then buy the license for it."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."
"There is no license needed to use TeamViewer."
"We use the free version of TeamViewer."
"The version of the solution we are using is free."
"The cost of the licenses depends on how you buy them. They just had a buy one get one free deal going, and they do that every once in a while. Where you buy one license, and they will give you the second one free, or you can try to get discounts. Most of our licenses that we have we tried to do something like that just to save some money."
