We performed a comparison between BigFix and Ivanti Neurons for MDM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ability to wipe data from and reset devices is one of the most important and valuable features. If a device is reported stolen, we can freeze it or wipe the data from it, preventing data leakage."
"It's normally able to meet 100% expectations of our customers."
"Among the most valuable features are the Company Portal that is built into Intune, and the update rings so that we can manage what types of future updates the devices get."
"Agile and easy to deploy MDM solution that covers the maximum number of policies. Stable, scalable, and with knowledgeable technical support."
"It is very easy to use. It has a very easy interface."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"I like the group policy management feature, which performs application monitoring and device enrollment."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"Pre-packaged support for many third-party applications such as Adobe, Google, Mozilla, Sun (Java), WinZip, and others."
"The architecture for patching and the 100% correct reporting makes BigFix stand apart from other solutions."
"The most valuable features of the solution are Windows patching and the hardware and software inventory."
"The technical support for BigFix is really amazing."
"It is for multiple use cases. A lot of people are looking at it just for security, and that's really endpoint security. The endpoint management part of it in terms of being able to constantly do patching for Windows, Unix, macOS, Cloud, Raspberry, VMware, and all Linux flavors is important, and they are very good at that. They have support for virtually every OS on the market."
"It allows for visibility into the OT, the industrial environments, that didn't exist before which is a big piece and has benefited my organization. Second, the speed at which people can patch is night and day versus SCCM scan or another similar solution."
"I’ve found patching to be the most valuable feature of the solution."
"I like the inventory and life cycle management feature."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"The company provides great customer service."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"It would really be helpful to have the option to manage server operating systems as well, like Windows Server, at least. That way, we could scrap the use of SCCM, which requires a lot of on-premises infrastructure."
"Microsoft Intune has a latency response time issue. The latency has room for improvement."
"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"
"Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance."
"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"The product is quite buggy and complicated to use."
"Around the scalability concern, I would like to see the ability to run teamed, clustered, or hierarchical root servers, in order to provide a more robust, high availability system. The single monolithic root server model does somewhat bother me."
"The self-service application seems to need some work to replace the client UI. There are a lot of pop-ups if you use a baseline as the object that you're setting to a workstation. Unless you're using web UI, the message is not customizable in the user notification."
"I would like to see different types of reporting and the ability to integrate closer with the cloud."
"BigFix should improve its compatibility with other platforms, such as Linux."
"IBM has not focused on the Web Reports capabilities."
"I would like to see SDK for Web UI included in the next release."
"I would eventually like to see a SaaS offering, a cloud-hosted BigFix instance where we only have to put a relay in our environment."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."
"UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated."
