Senior Infrastructure Security Engineer at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees

Centralized endpoint security has improved and supports hybrid work and BYOD policies

Regarding what I dislike about Microsoft Intune and its downsides, I would say that more Mac controls are needed because we have limited Mac and Linux control. When comparing controls and policies between Windows, Mac, and Linux, Windows has almost everything you can think of, while Mac and Linux have limited types of control. You cannot implement certain things on Mac and Linux that you can on Windows. The limited controls are a major issue. Additionally, if Microsoft could find a way to embed servers into Microsoft Intune, that would be beneficial. Microsoft Intune is not really designed for servers or Windows servers. It is more tailored towards Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems. Windows servers are not fully supported. Enterprise organizations usually have both servers and endpoints, which are users' workstations. For servers, most people look for other solutions such as SCCM, which is Configuration Manager. However, SCCM is what Microsoft Intune is trying to replace. Both SCCM and Microsoft Intune belong to Microsoft. Microsoft is trying to transition organizations into Microsoft Intune, the native cloud solution. However, because this update is still in process, servers are not fully compatible with Microsoft Intune and cannot be managed by it. The current policy that has emerged from issues with clients is what they call co-management, which is relatively new, and I do not know if adoption is significant. Many legacy or older customers who have been using these products for decades still have SCCM. When it is time for them to manage their Windows devices, they use what is called cloud attach. Cloud attach is a term whereby your SCCM is connected to your Microsoft Intune. Most people do not know about it, but I have deployed it for several organizations. Cloud attach and co-management work together so that your device is in SCCM, but some policies are pushed from Microsoft Intune. It is like two different solutions working hand in hand. That is what they call co-management. Microsoft Intune does not bring all of your endpoint and security management tools into one place, which is the goal and how it should be. However, as I mentioned, servers are not included. If we talk about end users, Microsoft Intune does bring all your devices together. In a typical enterprise environment, you have end users with workstations, laptops, company-issued phones, and bring your own devices. You can create policies for all of these. However, for the backend, your servers do not have much coverage. Servers are not really covered by Microsoft Intune in that way.

Helpful technical support, and performs well, but initial setup could be simplified

They are constantly improving the scalability of BlackBerry Enterprise Mobility Suite. More collaborative features are being developed. I know they have integrations with a lot of other vendors and applications, and it's constantly growing. Our company has approximately 3,000 users. I would say we have ten people for actual administrative roles with Blackberry.

Great features with very good function management

Our customers are pretty happy with the product. It uploads files, creates a secure virtual compartment for corporate applications. If it's on-prem, you can use it with mobile phones or tablets that don't have access to the internet using intranet with wireless access points. That's a big plus for government institutions as it enables the management of a large fleet of devices without any outside interference. That is the most significant advantage.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The management control feature is the most valuable."

"The ability to (somewhat) manage full Windows 10 computers including EXE-based or MSI-based application deployments using Azure Active Directory as Identity."

"I have no issues with the scalability and ability to expand Microsoft Intune."

"The most valuable feature is the UEM capabilities."

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is that it is more of a one-stop shop, providing an easier experience."

"The thing I appreciate most about Microsoft Intune is that the management of the devices was very simplified. We have all machines connected to it at all times, whether they are in the office or working from home."

"The mobile application management, MAM, is the most useful aspect of the solution."

"The most valuable feature is the policy CSPs."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"The security is outstanding."

"When the product works, it allows us to secure these devices in a way we could not before, and have control over the iOS updates and applications that we lacked."

"Access to the emails on the go was most valuable. Having access to your emails in a secure way is one of the most important features of this solution. Blackberry ensures data security, and as a user, I can use it while on roaming or wherever I am."

"It has a good ease of use, and its intuitive."

"From my customers' standpoint, it's reasonably easy to get set up; it's just there, and it just works."

"It allows me to be able to access my email when I do not necessarily have my computer with me, and I can also access my calendar when I am on public transport or outside of the office."

"Compared to the product that we upgraded from, we have received great responses from our end users who are appreciative of the following: They can access their calendar in events better than the other product that we were using."

"It keeps things secure, it can remotely wipe the container and it's fairly easy to use."

More BlackBerry Enterprise Mobility Suite pros

"Can manage a large fleet of devices without any outside interference."

Cons

"I would like to see Intune improve its handling of hybrid domain joins. We continue to experience issues with machines losing their hybrid domain join status."

"During the onboarding of Microsoft Intune, we faced the problem that the policies were not getting synced."

"I have experienced downtime, bugs, and glitches. I rate it a seven because when we have bugs or instability in Microsoft Intune, we need to wait for the backend from Microsoft Intune to resolve issues and we can't deliver solutions to clients because we need to wait for action plans and related processes."

"Intune's reporting and logging could be improved. When troubleshooting, it's difficult to collect the logs and determine what's happening. If I want to filter out the compliant devices, I can see it from the logs, but I would like the option to drill down further."

"Every time we call, we get bounced to a new team... there is no cohesive end-to-end support, which is very frustrating and time-consuming."

"However, Autopilot enrollment is not available for Mac devices yet, which would be a great addition if implemented."

"Issues such as Windows 32 app failures occur frequently, and detailed manual detection rules are often necessary."

"There is always a noise when you are going to manage any endpoint devices, and noise is definitely there with this solution."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"It would be nice if there was an easier way for team members to get onboarded in regards to what they have to do on the device. There are some programs like Apple DEP and Samsung Knox. Unfortunately, with these programs, to get existing users onto them, you have to factory wipe your device. If it did not have the DEP capabilities, it would be nicer if it did not have so many steps to go through. That is our biggest complaint from team members. It has too many steps."

"That is where it is a bit challenging for us, because there is a lot of value-add in the product with a lot of different features."

"The interface could be improved."

"Clumsy user interface"

"More devices supported like iOS, Android, and API so it can support various platforms to enhance the experience."

"The first installation is very complicated but future installments are much easier."

"Second level support needs to have strong knowledge of the product."

"It's too difficult to manage ourselves. We have to get a third-party in to do that. The fact that it breaks on some end-users' devices is also a concern and just the frequency and complexity of upgrades is not ideal."

More BlackBerry Enterprise Mobility Suite cons

"Lacks a factory reset feature."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The purchase of the product was handled by someone else."

"Microsoft Intune is expensive."

"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."

"I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."

"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."

"Previously the price was $4 per month per user. Now it's $2.25 per user per month."

"Intune is linked with Microsoft. We can deploy the Microsoft E365 license to users by Intune. There are different types of licenses, such as device administrator licenses, E5 licenses for device enrollment manually, and P1 and p2 licenses for device enrollment automatically. These are the licenses required for the administration."

"The cost of the license and the features are justified for myself as a technical person."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"With the new licensing model, there seems to be a significant increase in cost, which makes it difficult to push forward and talk with the business."

"The licensing costs are paid on a yearly basis because we just renewed the license. If you have some big issue, they will also charge you."

"We currently pay by the year, but the licenses are calculated on a monthly basis."

"We are paying $200 annually. You also need to have a hardware server or a license for the server so there could be some additional fees added on to that."

"We pay about $6 a year for the solution. There are no extra costs on top of that. You save a lot of money when you use this product."

"In my opinion, we're paying an awful lot for what we get, compared to other vendors. I don't deal with the pricing, but it does seem to be a bit pricey for the things that we get, especially, when you compare them to other vendors, such as VMware, Citrix, who have all bought up other players in this space. VMware offers AirWatch free as part of their packages."

"Sometimes, it is very hard to get an overview because there are so many different suites to find out what is the right thing for new customers."

"It was on a yearly support contract, and the licenses were perpetual. There was also the implementation cost and the support cost for the integrator."
