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.

Easy setup and effective support
I am with the company that sells LogMeIn Rescue. So, we engage with end customers, enterprise customers, manufacturing customers, BFSI customers, and healthcare customers. We try to find their use cases and provision our solution accordingly. For instance, if someone is in manufacturing and wants…

Simple to set up, reasonable pricing, and useful remote control capabilities
I'm on the latest version of the solution. I just updated it yesterday. While we have the solution on-premises at this time, we'll likely move to the cloud later this year. They have a trial version that you can try. They have a free version that you can try as well. I use it myself to support my family. I would try the free version or the trial version depending on your business. They can set you up and you can get to see all the features. I would also advocate going to the cloud version. Don't bother with the on-prem. It's just easier to jump to the cloud. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Intune enables us to manage our devices from anywhere."
"The solution’s most valuable feature is its ease of use."
"In terms of technical support, you will get an immediate response."
"The best part of Intune is application deployment. We can deploy an application to several users with a single click. We can use conditional access, granting access to users based on certain conditions, such as location, platform, etc."
"The security compliance capabilities make it widely adopted across organizations."
"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."
"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."
"It's really easy to access."
"It works with different operating systems, I can connect to a PC or Mac."
"If an issue happens, we're able to log in at the time that it happens and address it , so there's minimal downtime."
"No issues with scalability. It is a fairly simple model. If I wanted to add five more, I would just buy five more people and licenses, apply the program to their computers, and give them their login."
"The solution has been in the market for the past 20 years. For us, it is one of the best tools."
"​Our favorite feature is being able to diagnose customers' problems by seeing them on the screen, rather than just over the phone."
"The desktop sharing allows our clients to demonstrate the issue they are having, and then allows us to provide remediation directly."
"It is very stable. It adjusts to bandwidth very well."
"it's very easy to use, it's very efficient."
"it gives me the ability to remotely connect to machines that I manage without user intervention."
"You can bring up a command prompt remotely and execute commands without having to disturb the user."
"The product's two-factor authentication means we are not worried like before about the state of our security."
"Remote connect via webpage. I use it to support employees when I am not in the office or when they are at a remote location."
"ConnectWise Connect is very convenient as we can remote to a PC even when it is not within our LAN."
"Better than TeamViewer and useful for fixing problems remotely."
"The flexibility to manage bandwidth and organize connections, and the price, make ConnectWise a really good choice."
"Being able to flip quickly between however many monitors that I have running, detune the video for black and white, or with fewer colors to make it faster, is amazing."
 

Cons

"There's quite a lot of development that they can do within their Intune dashboard. I think there are too many lines hyperlinked to move you around. Others, in contrast, give you a simple dashboard and an intuitive administrative walkthrough."
"Intune needs to incorporate more tools to reduce the number of third-party applications we rely on."
"We faced issues with macOS support. The product should have better inventory and asset management."
"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."
"Some customers have reported experiencing slowness when using lower versions of the Android system."
"From a new user's perspective, it may be a little overwhelming because there are quite a few things to look at in the console, however, once you are sort of acclimated and are familiar with your core functions, it's fairly simple and straightforward."
"Could benefit from user having more control over devices."
"A feature I would want to see added in Microsoft Intune is the ability to manage other non-Microsoft devices."
"They need to improve their technical support."
"​The pricing, is a little on the high end but it's proven itself to be worth it for sure."
"Their ability to support mobile has been really problematic. I've seen other products that have done a better job in supporting mobile products. LogMeIn has just never been able to come up to par there, and that would be a detractor. They've been talking about supporting mobile for 10-plus years, and I really haven't seen any improvement on that."
"The billing team was poor when fixing their billing mistake and customer service was missing in action."
"I would like a single sign on for all of our (five) accounts so that I can immediately use an available seat. Right now, I have to try to log in with each account separately, in an attempt to find an available license that is not currently in use."
"Support to remotely control more mobile devices' screens is desperately needed. It is sad to see how long this product has been out and how many phones are still not supported for, specifically, remote screen control."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"I wish this product was tied to a Help Desk package so I could manage tickets and have an infrastructure, with this being the primary tool to troubleshoot."
"Support for PAC files on the guest's side and support for proxy on the host's side. Currently, there is no support for guest-side PAC files or for the host-side proxy (which uses authentication)."
"Mobile interface."
"What we need this product to do is to be able to control Windows Updates. LogMeIn Central allowed us remote access but also allowed to push and install Windows Updates, and third-party updates... When we made the switch to ConnectWise we lost the ability to do patching. That forced us, for our larger clients, to move to WSUS. We had to set up a VM on those larger clients to push Windows Updates and patches into the network."
"For my company, just installing the software and using it is very easy. But if I need to give one of my customers access to their machines, the process that you have to go through is some 15 to 20 steps. You have to create a group, and then you have to assign a policy. It takes 15 to 20 minutes to set up someone for remote access to their own machine."
"I really didn't care for the onboarding process and it is something that should be improved."
"I would like ConnectWise Control to be more transparent on the real costs to renew their license."
"If it had Chrome capability, that would be great; being able to use it on a Chrome device. Right now, I can't use it on my Chrome device."
"At the moment, there's absolutely no specific feature that we actually need additionally since all the features that we need are available."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Microsoft charges for actual usage, it lacks discount options."
"Our enterprise agreement includes Microsoft Intune at no additional cost."
"Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have."
"Even if they charge a premium, they aim to provide equal value."
"Microsoft Intune is moderately priced. There is a monthly license required to use the solution and it is approximately eight dollars per month."
"The solution is cost-efficient."
"It's a bit expensive from a licensing perspective, especially as we look to have organizations with tenants across the globe."
"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."
"Pricing is reasonable and easily offsets other costs, while resolving issues in a much quicker timeframe."
"Look at the different plans they have. Do not pay for a plan you do not need.​"
"The pricing is a little on the higher side, though.​"
"​The rescue model is licensed by user."
"I did look into a couple of other products, TeamViewer in particular, at one point. The price point of Rescue, compared to some of the other things that are in the marketplace right now, is high. But it's what I would call the "Cadillac" of the industry."
"Right now, I'm using ScreenConnect, which is about $45 per technician. Unless I buy LogMeIn with a large license and commit for the long-term and prepay, I will have to pay almost $120 per user a month. It's almost three times the price over the normal price for ScreenConnect, which is very similar in regards to all of the features that LogMeIn Rescue can do."
"While LogMeIn Rescue is a great product and a leader in the industry, it's way pricey. Price is the most negative thing about LogMeIn Rescue."
"The only downside is pricing. I think each technician license is somewhere around $100 or $120 a month now. So if you have a lot of technicians, it can get expensive, for a small business."
"I think the product's pricing is a good value. I paid $600 a year and that was fine for me. It was about $50 a month. Licensing is all very straightforward."
"Make sure you have enough licensing for all the techs that you have."
"Pricing is fair for Control and the licensing is simple."
"We pay an annual licensing fee."
"Good price and works well."
"It is priced fairly."
"The cloud version is relatively inexpensive, but the on-premise version is expensive if you do not need three technicians, only one or two for concurrent sessions."
"We pay $85 per month for each user for a ConnectWise package with multiple solutions."
