Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance
One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

Monitoring and Operations Pilot at Egis S.A.
Has simplified hardware issue identification but needs integrated communication options
We have monitoring capabilities and we are monitoring some network tools from Cisco Meraki Systems Manager (MDM+EMM) and troubleshooting as well. I am currently working with version MR 32.1.4. Policy involves connecting mostly through emails, as we don't have any special kind of policy features. If any alert comes, we connect via mail. We don't utilize the geolocation tracking feature. The unified dashboard helps me simplify device management for my team based on the location, as we have configured devices from many different countries. We give the device's name based on the location, allowing us to identify easily in the dashboard. Regarding operational cost savings, it is cost-saving because in other companies, they use different tools for different networks, such as one for Windows, another for Linux, and a different one for VMware. We use all the systems including Windows, Linux, and networking under Cisco, Centreon, and Cisco Meraki Systems Manager (MDM+EMM), which is very cost-efficient. Regarding pricing and licensing of Cisco Meraki Systems Manager (MDM+EMM), I don't have information about that, as we are from the technical department. Details about subscription and quotation come from another department. I rate this solution 8 out of 10.

Easy to use and set up with easy mobile access to reports
The initial setup is quite straightforward and simple. It only takes one day to set up. At the time of SAP implementation, it's a part of the portfolio. It's a one-time activity that you have just implemented in your ERP boxes. After that, you have to install a mobile application on Android or iOS, and you can use your user ID and password credentials, and you can access your reports. Once it's installed, you only need one IT person to align things. It doesn't take a big team. They can generate and change reports as necessary. If you need to change certain things, you need an SAP developer. There is no admin team requirement, and you can access it from anywhere.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Intune is a very good product and everything is cloud-based, and it provides a very simple unified platform to manage everything from the single management console."
"What I appreciate about Microsoft Intune is that it is easy for me to deploy software to an environment with 600 laptops."

"Its direct integration with all the other products that we have from Microsoft is valuable. We're using the E5 license, and we have a whole wealth of different products available. It just makes it easier to have everything from one provider."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Autopilot."
"The integration with conditional access is great."
"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."
"Microsoft Intune has positively impacted our organization by giving us a more centralized and consistent way to manage endpoints, especially as remote and hybrid work become more common."
"The solution is used for monitoring and configuring access points and BYOD (bring your own device)."
"The most valuable features include remote inventory analysis, security features like geofencing, and software distribution."
"It's very easy to just keep adding devices as needed."
"The UI is easy to learn."
"Cisco Meraki Systems Manager is very good in terms of performance, as it can handle the traffic in the network of our 300-400 user base and manage all the users without downtime, and its exceptional performance is allowing us to implement other solutions to service customers better."
"Having the ability to alter the network and WiFi settings remotely permits us to have quick response time."
"The profile settings are valuable features; it is a good solution, good for daily use, and the UI is easy to learn, and the documentation and YouTube channel help us finish most of our engine work."
"The analysis of traffic and configuration capabilities are the most valuable aspects for us."
"If you need to access company reports on the go, you can pull them up on your phone, which allows for immediate access without the need to carry around your laptop everywhere."
"Everything is available to you from your handset."
 

Cons

"If we can not seem to get even half a dozen users working with the product in a way we consider stable, the scalability is in question."
"Microsoft Intune is not user-friendly to manage and has room for improvement."
"One area where Microsoft Intune could be improved is troubleshooting and reporting."
"Intune has limited integration with non-Microsoft solutions."
"They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular. Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants."
"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."
"Better reporting capabilities, stronger Mac OS management, faster policy synchronization, and easier troubleshooting are needed."
"If your MDM has to be really specific, perhaps Intune is not the better option."
"Security could be improved, and there could be more features that enable you to customize the end customer solution."
"They need to allocate more energy in terms of their offering to devices that are not Apple devices."
"The tool's pricing needs to be more flexible like Cisco's."
"Cisco is too expensive."
"The maintenance is average."
"The price is high for the market."
"The price could be better."
"Integration with other tools, such as, ConnectWise Automate."
"We would like it if SAP could integrate the transactional mode as well so that users can perform transactional jobs by mobile-only."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for Intune and the competitor products are all within the same range, there is no true advantage when it comes to cost."

"The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied."
"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."
