Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Passive scanning excels and support proves invaluable
Regarding the cons of the Claroty Platform, it is not about the deployment, but rather the identification. The Claroty Platform becomes too noisy when it gives numerous CVEs related to vendor match. Sometimes, these CVEs are not actually related to the device in the firmware at the site. The Claroty Platform identifies effectively but sometimes identifies many CVEs which might not be the actual issue in certain scenarios.

Easy to deploy with great security and responsive support
The security on offer is the most valuable aspect of the solution. It offers, for example, two-factor authentification. The remote connection across platforms is great. You can deploy it on anything, including Windows, Mac, iOS, your iPhone, et cetera. It offers multi-platform utility. This makes it great for enterprise. Users can use it for PAM access as well. The feature of Devolutions that has improved our customer's efficiency the most is probably the security side. It's gotten a lot tighter. Authentication and secure connections are helpful. They use encryption between them, which is just standard for them. The company has so many regulatory controls that they must ensure their security is very tight. There's a lot of potential cybercrime around casinos, and this solution ensures they are well-protected. Devolutions is a great product that can be safely used between China, Australia, or the Philippines, and it remains a good, safe product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user experience with Microsoft Intune is excellent because we can manage users and maintain security and policies anywhere they are."
"The most valuable feature is that we can manage workstations or Android devices remotely without needing the device to be connected to our local network."
"Microsoft Intune is easy to use, and it is able to enforce policies towards multiple devices. It is able to bring multiple classes of devices into the same security posture. I found that very useful."
"The biggest benefits of Intune are the ability to push changes and the added security. When we moved forward with Defender, we onboarded all those machines automatically. That helps dramatically. For a while, we were left with machines that weren't protected. We could see where people had done things they shouldn't have done, and Defender saved our skins a few times. It didn't happen a lot, but it happened enough that it made us glad we made that decision."
"Microsoft Intune does a great job of helping protect our environment."
"We already use a lot of Microsoft products in our company, and therefore, it made sense to also use this product."
"Cloud-based device management is the best feature for me as it impacts my company the most; it is much easier than the previous Configuration Manager or SCCM."
"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."
"Claroty provides continuous threat protection and identifies pre-empty stuff and false positives."
"Claroty assigns a score based on how well you are doing in the course. If you skip a video, your score decreases, making it essential to watch the content attentively."
"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."
"The solution offers comprehensive tools that greatly enhance your IT operations if implemented correctly."
"Claroty is very beneficial for learning and adds value to your resume."
"The solution's asset management is really great compared to Dragos or Nozomi."
"The tool's best feature was the UI and the simplicity it offers."
"I believe the two main aspects where Claroty stands out are their ability to provide a complete platform and their OT-specific focus."
"It really helps to have all the data already pre-entered and all I have to do is enter the password."
"Setup and installation was simple."
"The interface is great to work with as it allows multiple connections in a tabbed interface. It also has the option to automatically start a VPN or an SSH tunnel, if required."
"Documentation per entry, good for device configs or important/special instructions."
"Being able to store my credentials makes connecting a breeze."
"Devolutions's team is constantly making improvements to their products. If you submit a feature request, they are usually quick to implement it."
"RDM has enabled me to do most of my work in one place. This helps me be able to have an RDP session open to a server in one tab and an SSH session open to a VMware host in another."
"Integration with a third party credential storage, web login, and VPN are the most usable and useful functions at the moment."
 

Cons

"Microsoft Intune's app deployment presents challenges for non-MSI and non-store apps, particularly EXEs, requiring the use of a Win32 wrapper tool and adding overhead to the process."
"Historically, Group Policy has simplified the management of various items, such as printer and drive mappings and while Intune offers workarounds, it lacks native support for these functionalities. This is an area I believe needs 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."
"There is room for improvement, particularly in terms of compatibility, extending beyond the well-known major brands."
"Intune should improve the management of non-Microsoft devices. It would be better to manage Mac, Android, and other non-Microsoft operating system devices within the same Intune interface."
"The add-ons must be integrated into the solution."
"Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update."
"I also hope the cost of Remote Help will decrease because it's a much-needed Intune function."
"The product could be improved in terms of user interface design."
"If more AI features could be included with the Clarity solution, it would be feasible for everybody."
"Claroty Platform could improve the pricing to get more acceptability in the market."
"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There are a few protocols that Claroty doesn't currently support."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools. Improvements could also be made in the Secure Remote Access (SRA) user interaction and graphical representations of recordings."
"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"Maybe some clipboard functions could be added along with integration of different software."
"Sometimes the manual inventory of some entries hangs, and RDM must be closed via task manager."
"Security roles could be improved, especially by enabling renaming of a role."
"The RDM client (.NET issue, actually) can stall or lock up while it clears communication threads to the server."
"On complex setups, I actually needed to reach out to support to get it working correctly."
"Sometimes when updating, the install window is on top of the prompt to close the application."
"The only complaint I have heard is there are too many updates. Each time there is an update (the app prompts to upgrade), it can be time consuming, especially when sometimes there are multiple updates per week."
"The console is a little bit clunky."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."
"While I don't have access to high-level financial information, I believe we have achieved lower costs with this implementation."
"With one user base license, we can use Intune for up to five devices. However, with Soti MobiControl, each license is tied to a single device, meaning one license is dedicated to one device only."
"Cost is not my department, but the product is included in the E5 license that we already pay for every user, so no additional cost is incurred."
"There is a license needed for this solution and it is either included in one of the enterprise license agreements. Microsoft licensing is a mathematical institute, it could be quite complex. We tend to ask specialized organizations to research what the most profitable way it would be for us to use licenses in the organizations."
"The price is reasonable, but they should lower it a bit to make it more competitive. It's cheaper than AirWatch and other products, but I still feel like Microsoft can make a base version or with Exchange online or a la carte only Intune version which will be useful. A customer who doesn't want to go full-fledged E3 or E5 can take out or consume an Intune solution only for their purpose, and we want to target that customer."
"The product is expensive."
"Existing E5 license holders for M365, Intune, and Azure, receive a free license."
"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"The licensing for physical devices is cheap, but the software version is expensive. The software version costs around 26-28 dollars. I was surprised and even double-checked. It was shocking."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"The Free Edition is completely free. You can try also the Enterprise Edition for 30 days for free."
"Setup costs for most people is negligible."
"If you are a Microsoft MVP, VMware vExpert, Cisco Champion, etc., Devolutions offers a free Enterprise License."
