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.

Beneficial compliance management, easy backup configuration, and supports multiple devices

My advice to others is the user should be familiar with the network that the solution that is going to be used. This is a network management tool, and the network engineers or the users of the tool much know how to manage it. The right privilege management should be done because you have to be careful that there are not any accidental changes to the network. Depending upon the roles and responsibilities, the correct access should be given which is very important. I rate BMC TrueSight Network Automation a nine out of ten.

Centralized secrets have secured CI/CD pipelines and prevent password traces in terminals

Infisical's best features include the ease I have to store passwords and manage the users who will use those passwords. That helps a lot. User management through Infisical makes my work easier because I am able to manage the access levels to the types of passwords that I have stored in Infisical. This allows me to have higher access levels with higher-level passwords and deeper levels of access. Infisical is extremely simple to use, so it is important to emphasize how easy it is to handle the platform as a whole. It is very straightforward and very easy to deal with in terms of how it is laid out. Infisical has had a positive impact on my organization mainly in the level of security regarding the use of passwords that give direct access to the server. We stopped using passwords directly on personal computers. This ensures a very high level of security for both those in development and those in management. There are possibilities of computers breaking or losing saved passwords. If someone breaks into my personal computer, that person will not have access via prompt to my high-level passwords. This security segregation raises and gives much more credibility to the company as a whole. I have noticed time savings in access management after adopting Infisical as the main benefit. Regarding leaks, we have not had anything proven related to leaks yet.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Intune is unique in providing management for all operating systems, including macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS."

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

"Its protection policies are most valuable. It protects mobile devices as well as individual apps. It is pretty scalable, and its documentation is also pretty good. It is also pretty straightforward to deploy."

"The ability to send configurations to our systems is valuable, particularly as we don't have a regular Windows AD server. Our current environment doesn't have a Windows AD, which limits our ability to push GPOs. However, this is where the solution can step in and help us push policies."

"The cloud base is perfect for me."

"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."

"Overall, the user experience of Microsoft Intune is excellent, the software is installed in the background and the user will not feel any disruption, and it is a comprehensive solution because it is integrated with Microsoft's other products."

"The feature I like the most is that we can perform remote tasks. If we want to retire or wipe out personal data or corporate data from a device, we can use Microsoft Intune remotely, and with the click of a button, data is removed automatically. Nothing needs to be done from the end-user side."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"BMC TrueSight Network Automation is used for entire network management, automation, backups, pushing configurations for multiple devices, compliance, and secure access of the network devices."

"Reduced manual efforts in managing the devices, made changes on thousands of devices automatically, and automated repetitive processes using templates and policies."

"Depending on who's looking at the data, they need to configure that data in different ways, and the dashboards help us to do that better than what was previously available."

"This product has helped us because we can now do many tasks at once. Rather than copy one file to one device, we can do an entire group at one time."

"The backup and restore configurations are really helpful for a number of network devices, as you can automate them, then know what changes have been done, who made the changes, etc. So, it's quite helpful in the network management area."

"It has the best automation features."

"It is helpful if you schedule daily or weekly archiving for your config groups. Then, you can go by what are in those configuration groups, before and after, if you make changes. So, configuration management is really helpful in network management."

"We use it to back up configurations so the configuration management is valuable for us."

More BMC TrueSight Automation for Networks pros

"Infisical has positively impacted my organization by helping us transition from deploying everything manually, where we had to copy-paste all the environment variables into the environment files in the cloud, by dynamically injecting all the tokens and secrets into the workflow, which was very fast and saved a lot of time."

"The main positive impact is that it saves a lot of time because there is no need to worry about security vulnerabilities that can occur."

"Infisical has had a positive impact on my organization mainly in the level of security regarding the use of passwords that give direct access to the server."

"Infisical has had a positive impact on my organization because it has helped me manage secrets in a much faster way, and all the people in the mobile or web development departments can integrate with the ecosystem quickly thanks to its SDK."

"Infisical had a positive impact on my organization, even in its proof-of-concept phase, because it integrated more seamlessly into the development environment."

"Infisical has improved security significantly and makes it very easy for all developers to update, delete, and restore environment variables or secrets while keeping them in a very secure manner on our self-hosted infrastructure."

"Infisical has positively impacted my organization, and even though I was an intern, I noticed improvements or benefits after using it as that was part of the assignment."

Cons

"Intune's areas for improvement revolve around security and certificate management."

"One thing I would suggest is that servers are not getting managed through Microsoft Intune."

"Reporting needs improvement."

"There are some issues using the solution with macOS and iOS, and it offers limited granular control with them. Intune works better on Windows and Android."

"My experience with them was very bad. They don't know about their own product."

"The only drawback or challenge is that it does not support server deployment."

"Back in 2020, there were significant problems with report accuracy, particularly regarding web patching."

"For an existing customer who has an SCCM, it would need to be upgraded to an MECM first before I can introduce Microsoft Intune."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"We've been working with BMC support in various ways such as to allow for the high-availability components to the TSIMs to work together. There have been issues there. We've seen randomness in how other pieces of the software work. Integration with the Presentation Server and the TSIMs has been a challenge. The ports that are required for HA to be utilized were not clearly documented anywhere. In fact, they still aren't documented online anywhere, even though we managed to pull it out of some of their support people."

"BMC TrueSight Network Automation can improve by having a better UI. The overall quality of the UI could be better."

"The product should be expanded to include more hardware, beyond Cisco and Juniper devices."

"Regarding TrueSight, the setup has been a nightmare."

"I'd like to be able to get more devices into compliance with standards, but that means running additional rule sets and that takes time."

"I would like to see more device supported features, mostly on the new brands and models coming in. For any new version or model, it should be supported by the tool, especially the newest versions. For example, the newest devices, like Aruba Wireless, and routers need support from the tool."

"They should add more automation policies for different vendors devices like Ruckus Wireless."

"I believe there could be new features in terms of the latest technology."

More BMC TrueSight Automation for Networks cons

"From a features perspective, there is a little lag when running projects and importing particular secret variables."

"One thing that kept frustrating me was that sometimes Infisical was not working from our cloud machine."

"Better documentation is needed."

"When we scan Infisical using the Trivy vulnerability scanning tool, we found issues with Infisical CLI Go binaries that are not updated with the latest version."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We don't get Intune as a separate module. Most of the time, we use it within an enterprise agreement like E3 or E5. Those licenses are at a good price, but what is annoying is that every single year they go higher."

"It's a bit expensive from a licensing perspective, especially as we look to have organizations with tenants across the globe."

"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."

"It is reasonable for the features it has."

"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."

"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."

"Intune's pricing is competitive. For example, the license of Blackberry's Enterprise Mobility Suite was costly, but Intune is affordable. It is included as an additional feature when you buy security enhancements for your organization. For example, let's say I have fifty users in my organization and all of them are using Microsoft cloud services, like Teams, Office 365, and OneDrive."

"The Intune license model is costly."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"The solution is more costly than the other competitors."

"The solution is worth the price."

"There's a fee for the licenses themselves, per contract, and then we have a yearly licensing fee that's many thousands of dollars. But that's not just for TrueSight, that's also for support for ITSM, Atrium Orchestrator, BBNA, and other BMC tools in the environment."
