Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
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. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Accessing multiple PCs from remote locations is easy and reliable with this solution
The solution works very well, I do not have any problem with it at all. The only problem is they have more than tripled their price in the last three years over what they used to charge. A price reduction would probably be warranted as I am not getting three times the service. My husband uses it too and he agrees that a price reduction would be the only thing he would be looking for. The vendor more than tripled the price in the last three years — so it has doubled and then doubled again. They have just kind of gone through the roof when it comes to pricing and I think that they are justifying that because of the demand.

Enhances remote access and integration with third-party tools
I use NinjaOne for managing smaller clients, specifically their devices and software, for small to medium businesses. I provide remote management services through NinjaOne. It allows clients to use NinjaOne for remote access to their computers for home office purposes. This feature is highly…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Microsoft Intune to organizations looking for management of a large number of devices and enterprise environments."
"Intune has automated the deployment of patches and applications, which is more efficient and easier."
"I like how Microsoft Intune lets me lock down the email profile and make it accessible only on certain devices."
"Microsoft Intune simplifies device management by replacing the traditional method of installing OS, joining a domain, and configuring everything manually."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Intune include remote updates. The update runs in the background, so there's no need in most cases to go on-site to do it."
"There are no complaints about the stability. It works one hundred percent of the time."
"The most valuable feature is the policy CSPs."
"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."
"The installation is almost instant."
"The technical support is good."
"I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC."
"The solution is very quick to set up."
"The most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"The most important aspect of this tool is the security it provides our company."
"The best feature of NinjaOne is the SLA system. Every IT person can check their performance, how long it takes to resolve an issue, and how many SLAs are breached."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"A significant feature of NinjaOne is its remote access capability, which is essential for my clients’ home office usage."
"The most valuable features of NinjaOne include remote desktop management, support and assistive tools, and screen sharing."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
 

Cons

"Intune could be improved by expanding its third-party patching capabilities for a more comprehensive solution."
"Manually syncing devices to enforce policies is cumbersome."
"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."
"Technical support is not that great."
"I would like to see better integration with Microsoft."
"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"
"We would like to see the ability to use multiple personas on a device, similar to Samsung Knox, included in future updates."
"Microsoft Intune is not as fast and extensive as traditional solutions such as SCCM and others."
"If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot."
"The pricing has tripled in a small amount of time and there is not three times better service."
"Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."
"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"NinjaOne's dashboard could be easier to use."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied."
"Microsoft's licensing is more flexible and adaptive than its competitors."
"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."
"It is not expensive."
"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits."
"Even if they charge a premium, they aim to provide equal value."
"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."
"Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have."
"We pay approximately 2,000 Euros a year for the solution. The licensing is all-inclusive; you don't have to pay for extra add-ons or services."
"It was cheap and now it is comparably expensive. It costs me $484 to use the solution with just two physical PCs."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"NinjaOne's price is fine since my workplace is an educational institution, so we get the product at a really good price considering that we do not pay taxes, making the prices very fair and worth the product."
"It roughly costs $400 a month. It provides a good value because of the number of tools that you get in the solution. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing. There are no additional costs other than the standard licensing fees."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
