Find out what your peers are saying about Red Hat, Microsoft, HCLTech and others in Configuration Management."The ability to manage devices with different sets of policies is most valuable."
"One of the biggest advantages of Microsoft Intune is that it brings the management of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and even Linux under a single pane of glass."
"We can securely manage both company-owned devices and personal devices enrolled in our BYOD program."
"There are so many features, but Windows Autopilot is one of the features that are very valuable for most customers."
"The synchronization of Intune with other Microsoft solutions is a valuable feature."
"Compliance and the policies that can be set are the most valuable features."
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera"
"We are a remote company, and the product helps us manage the global endpoints. It helps us natively manage the endpoints in the cloud from anywhere."
"Deployment has become quick and orchestration is now easy."
"The most valuable feature is the language that it uses: Ruby."
"The product is useful for automating processes."
"The most important thing is it can handle a 100,000 servers at the same time easily with no time constraints."
"It is a well thought out product which integrates well with what developers and customers are looking for."
"Chef is a great tool for an automation person who wants to do configuration management with infrastructure as a code."
"You set it and forget it. You don't have to worry about the reliability or the deviations from any of the other configurations."
"The scalability of the product is quite nice."
"The customization is excellent."
"From a compliance and visibility reporting perspective, the fact that it can be applicable for multi-cloud environments is very helpful."
"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."
"The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments."
"Microsoft Intune has a latency response time issue. The latency has room for improvement."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"The main disadvantage seen today is regarding Linux clients. We have a lot of development resources that have Linux on their clients, and we can't manage them on the same platform, as we do with other clients such as macOS and Windows. So, it should have support for Linux clients. It should also have better support for macOS."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"There are a few security features that are not available in Microsoft Intune, when compared to other products."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"The AWS monitoring, AWS X-Ray, and some other features could be improved."
"I would like to see more security features for Chef and more automation."
"The solution could improve in managing role-based access. This would be helpful."
"I would also like to see more analytics and reporting features. Currently, the analytics and reporting features are limited. I'll have to start building my own custom solution with Power BI or Tableau or something like that. If it came with built-in analytics and reporting features that would be great."
"I would rate this solution a nine because our use case and whatever we need is there. Ten out of ten is perfect. We have to go to IOD and stuff so they should consider things like this to make it a ten."
"Support and pricing for Chef could be improved."
"Since we are heading to IoT, this product should consider anything related to this."
"It is an old technology."
"It would be ideal if there was customization with a focus on specific cybersecurity areas or capabilities."
"The general input I have is that there is an opportunity for them to better align with other similar tools and better align with similar capabilities that cloud suppliers deliver natively."
