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.

Allows us to revert to an optimal system state. I would like to see a faster Google Drive Sync.

* Deep Freeze: Ensures that I can maintain a baseline of an optimal system state where performance and system security are guaranteed. No matter how long a computer is in use, it will always revert to that same condition. * Data Igloo: Has been an important feature for me because on a frozen computer, the user's files and folders would have been redirected to the ThawSpace, thereby avoiding data loss upon a system restart. Users no longer have to worry when saving their files naturally to the Documents, Pictures, Music, Video, or Downloads folders or when manually saving their files to other locations. Data Igloo has been configured to handle all that.

Integrated controls have simplified compliance checks and have provided rapid audit readiness

In my opinion, the features of Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention are not very valuable compared to full DLP solutions such as those from McAfee or Symantec. This product is only suitable for compliance purposes. If you cover PCI requirements as a financial institution with a checkbox needed for your security audit, it performs very well at this. Basically, if the requirement fits within fixed rules with no need to customize to specific internal documents, it is a great product because of the ease of implementation. It is built-in with most Trend Micro products, so it is just a checkbox and a few clicks in the policy. For these purposes, it is great, but if you have confidential documents to protect, this is not exactly the right product. A few years back, say ten or fifteen years ago, Trend Micro had a standalone DLP product comparable in features to the leaders in the segment, but they decided to stop this product for some reason. The new one, built into other Trend Micro products, is not suitable for forensics, such as tracking who opened a document or who copied a confidential paragraph from a specific document. I do not know what could be improved about Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention. I was really a fan of the full-fledged product. I always tell prospective customers what exactly they can expect and never try to persuade them to choose Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention just because they ask for DLP. It is a niche product, similar to Microsoft DLP, which is also integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem. If the rules fit the specific scenario, it is great. However, if you need to protect specific documents or users, it is not exactly the best product for that purpose. If I consider the intended usage for Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention, I might rate it an eight, but if I evaluate it as a full-fledged DLP solution, I would say three. It is not marketed as a full-fledged DLP. It only integrates with specific regular expressions or keywords. If your needs are simple but you have to cover them due to some regulation, it is great, but for protecting confidential data or intellectual property, it is not the product for this use. For measuring the effectiveness of Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention in minimizing data leaks, I use speed, ease of implementation, and rapid ability to cover regulatory and compliance requirements, which it does really fast if you have such a scenario. However, protecting specific documents or intellectual property is not suitable and not intended for this use, so it is called DLP the other one, but it is not comparable.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."

"My favorite feature about Microsoft Intune is that I have good logging capabilities; I can effectively troubleshoot, though I'm also missing some aspects."

"I appreciate how clear Microsoft Intune is."

"The most valuable feature is Intune's ability to push out updates for the security and antivirus. I also like Intune's copilot and the ability to automate processes. For example, if you have 5,000 employees who are issued new PCs and you need to set them up with everything they need."

"Microsoft Intune is very stable due to its cloud-based infrastructure and its reliability in performance."

"The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance."

"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."

"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."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"The technical support is excellent, as they are persistent and thorough with their investigations, extremely polite and patient, and they keep me regularly updated on progress and tentative resolution schedules."

"If your needs are simple but you have to cover them due to some regulation, it is great, but for protecting confidential data or intellectual property, it is not the product for this use."

"The most values feature of this solution are the micro DLP features."

"Trend Micro is more flexible, with a better GUI and reporting features, and its licensing and pricing are comparatively low and competitive since they are offered in a bundle, especially compared to Symantec."

"The initial setup is quite straightforward."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is a reliable product."

"Trend Micro DLP allows me to scan and monitor emails for specific words, ensuring compliance with data loss prevention policies."

"The solution's initial setup process was straightforward."

"We find the initial setup to be very easy."

More Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention [EOL] pros

Cons

"It needs incorporation of Knox, ZeroTouch, etc."

"Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance."

"They need to integrate more with security options."

"Support is another area that could improve, as sometimes response times can be slow, and resolving complex issues may take longer than expected."

"Applying security recommendations can be difficult in Microsoft Intune. Sometimes, they give you recommendations, but you need a different server to manage the pieces, or you have to go to each device individually. However, it has been improving. Before, there were certain policies you could not implement directly in Intune, but now I see progress. I would like to see more improvement in policy management, similar to how we used group policies on-premises."

"In the future, I would like to see improvements in Microsoft Intune, especially related to policies and GPU."

"Microsoft Intune lacks live location tracking capabilities. Improvements should be made in terms of MDM platforms for other devices."

"Automation has room for improvement in Microsoft Intune for fixing some errors."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"There were infinite reboot loops on some computers, especially during maintenance updates."

"It's hard for me to answer any questions about missing features. It's the outside companies who support us that manage this DLP solution at this moment."

"The platform's support structure for government-specific domain requirements could be improved."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is buggy, which is one area for improvement. I also found Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention support horrible, so that's another area for improvement."

"Typically, DLP solutions do not cover emails without an additional component, which necessitates a dual-service proposal. Comparatively, on-premises deployments offer more features locally than online or remote deployments, which sometimes face challenges with feature support. This is a common issue with Trend."

"The solution could use better logging in the future."

"The tool should improve its reporting functionality. We need a proper reporting feature in a DLP solution."

"I'd rate the solution at three out of ten."

"Needs a remote login option."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing depends on the features. Microsoft offers special packages if there are more than 10,000 users, and you may be able to get a reduced rate."

"Generally, we get favorable discounts, so it's not too bad. Obviously, we're looking at decreasing those wherever we can to bring value back to the public purse because it's all charity based. It's all publicly funded."

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

"It is reasonable. When you have Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 license, it is already licensed in that license. So, you could say it is free."

"It is average. Some of the costs are quite high depending on what the customer currently uses, but overall, it is not bad. I would not say that I would not recommend Intune based on the cost. I definitely would, but they can definitely improve on the cost. So overall, its cost is not bad."

"Microsoft offers some licensing where it's included at no extra cost when customers are already using the licenses. In such a case, it's a really good value. If you have to buy the licensing for it, it's probably on par with other solutions. It isn't substantially more or less expensive. The great thing is that it is included in some of Microsoft's licensed packages. So, some customers don't have to spend additional money for it. Typically, most providers that support Intune do charge a management fee of some sort or some fee. Certainly, we're no exception."

"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."

"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."

"It's relatively cheap so the pricing is okay."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is expensive compared to other solutions."

"The product is worth the money you pay for it. It is not an expensive solution."

"Price-wise, it is a cheap solution. I rate the solution's pricing a two on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."

"The platform is expensive. We purchase its yearly license."
