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.

Secure data handling has transformed how our team protects PII and simplifies compliance
There are some improvements that can happen. Enigma Vault is strong in security and compliance, but there are a few areas that can be improved. Better observability and monitoring would be helpful. There is limited deep insight into tokenization failure and API latency breakdown. It can be improved by detailed dashboards, logs, and alerts, which can help in faster debugging and production monitoring. Another area is lower latency for high-scale systems. Every request goes through the vault APIs, which adds latency. In our application we have 1 million users at the candidate side and around 100,000 at the enterprise side. We have latency issues which we need to consider. Lower latencies for higher scale systems would be beneficial. Improvements could be made through edge-caching for the token. AWS provides these kinds of services such as CloudFront, so we can use these to store the tokens in the caches. There could also be regional vault deployment, similar to what AWS does. The APIs are good, but the development SDK support can be expanded a little because better documentation and examples would be helpful, especially for newer clients who are getting onboarded. Developer experience can be improved, and observability is another area. As a developer, I will get the APIs and everything which is provided by Enigma Vault, but the documentation that they have is a little too overwhelming for a newer developer. They are not able to understand it easily. Documentation is one thing that can be improved if a developer wants to start working on it.

Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement
The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, Microsoft Intune has been a strong fit for modern endpoint management, especially for remote and hybrid environments, and it keeps improving as Microsoft expands the platform."
"When comparing Microsoft Intune to Jamf, Microsoft Intune is superior."
"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"The Mobile Device Management in Intune is a valuable feature."
"Microsoft Intune is a scalable, secure, and cost-effective endpoint management solution that aligns with modern workplace needs."
"I like that it's very good and very simple. I found that we just needed to have a proper subscription for an Intune tenant, and from the subscription, if we have the right role assigned, like the global admin role or the owner role, we can use Microsoft cloud resources. With the help of that, we can do many things like setting up Microsoft Intune in the cloud to create our virtual machines. All these can be done, and the steps are very simple. I really liked it. I like features like Windows Auto-Enrollment. I like it very much because whenever you supply it to the end-user, it will be ready to use immediately. The end-user only needs to provide the user credentials, and then they are good to go. I also really like Cloud PC, which was recently launched on Azure."
"Intune provides a centralized management solution, although its suitability depends on specific needs and comparisons with alternatives like Jamf, Kandji, or ManageEngine."
"Microsoft Intune has been a time saver and reduces the time and effort IT admins have to invest."
"After using Enigma Vault, our security metrics have improved drastically, with exposure of sensitive data reduced by 90 to 95 percent at the application level, the number of systems handling raw PII reduced from multiple to zero, PCI audit scope reduced by 60 to 70 percent, audit preparation time reduced from weeks to a few days, and development speed improved by around 30 to 40 percent."
"Enigma Vault has positively impacted our organization in several ways, especially in improving data security, compliance, and operational trust within Ericsson systems."
"Their support is great. They added my home language, Italian, in one hour and answered my questions almost immediately, even though I did not have a paid account."
"The most valuable features of VMware Workspace ONE are security and having support for all the latest features that are coming out from Apple. They're pretty fast at adopting new features. This is one of the most vital aspects of mobile device management systems."
"I would recommend it, as it's very stable and robust."
"You can upgrade and migrate the existing group policies that we use for VMware Workspace ONE for the active directory. We can push the policies and group policies. We can migrate it and manage it from VMware Workspace ONE."
"The contained browser is a good feature."
"The Organization group approach they have taken to manage both Device and Administrative access has helped in providing administrators with a way to separate devices based on business use cases."
"The product enables us to access our internal applications from anywhere in the world."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is that it can support most end users' enterprise applications."
"The most valuable feature depends on the use case of the clients. However, one feature I like is the Kiosk Mode. In the Kiosk Mode in most cases, the clients only can make available one application developed by the solution and permit the employee or the final client to use only this one application for interaction. This provides a security control layer limiting only one application functionally."
 

Cons

"One area where Microsoft Intune could be improved is troubleshooting, as it sometimes takes time to identify the exact cause when application deployments or policy assignments do not work as expected."
"Better reporting capabilities, stronger Mac OS management, faster policy synchronization, and easier troubleshooting are needed."
"It can improve for new users; in the starting phase, we found that the logs are too complex or scattered."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"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."
"There could be some kind of feature that supports a workgroup environment or a separate environment without the Entra ID."
"The biggest challenge is that the admin portal can feel complex, especially for administrators who are new to the platform."
"I would like more clarity on how Intune is migrating control from Active Directory group policies, especially as we move over to Windows 11. It seems inefficient to manage some settings in Active Directory and others in Intune."
"Enigma Vault is a strong security platform within Ericsson, but there are always areas where it can be improved further."
"There are some improvements that can happen. Enigma Vault is strong in security and compliance, but there are a few areas that can be improved."
"The application itself individuals are getting annoyed with it. They are looking to integrate with ABB applications regardless of whether it is Android or iOS based. We are wanting to shift from this application because of the integration issues we are facing."
"Support is probably the main challenge that we have. Their support was not very good."
"vIDM could be improved with the multi-tenant capabilities that VMware tends to offer—features like customization branding and the integration of the app catalog based on the branding."
"Lacks a modern enterprise mobility management platform."
"Windows 8.1 could have more options to control."
"Patching, fixing, and training for VMware Workspace ONE are areas that need to be improved."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"I prefer to work with Jamf Pro because it is more specific to working with the iPad features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is pretty reasonable. We have difficulty with Azure, which is probably why we have not put many assets in Azure. Everything we put there is very expensive."
"It is expensive. The cost depends on the license that we choose."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"It's affordable. In comparison to the competitors, the price depends on what features you need from Intune, but it's affordable. There are no hidden costs, but there are some features that go for a premium price. Those are the add-ons for which you have to pay extra."
"While I can't provide insights from a business perspective, it's worth noting that the pricing may differ significantly, and the discount we received might not be reflective of standard business rates."
"In terms of the product price and licensing costs, my company finds the product to be reasonably priced."
"The price for Intune is fair."

"It is quite expensive, but I think large companies have agreements with these organizations that provide remote monitoring for phones, and they get massive discounts. The public price does not reflect what they pay. You won't get the same pricing if you're buying for 10 employees versus 1,000 employees. On the public price, you get perhaps a 10% discount, but if you're buying 1,000, the discount could be really massive, especially if you signed a contract for a number of years."
"For big users, it's around $500."
"Workspace ONE is on the higher end of the pricing band when compared to other players in the market."
"There is a licensing fee for the users, and we pay a low amount for our support costs."
"The price of the solution is costly for the number of users I am using it for."
"The price of VMware Workspace ONE is expensive. However, for the features that are provided, the price is reasonable. There is a subscription to use the solution."
"Our organization has stopped using the solution because it was expensive."
"There is a separate cost for technical support and extra premium features. The pricing should be simplified."
