Centralized endpoint security has improved and supports hybrid work and BYOD policies

Regarding what I dislike about Microsoft Intune and its downsides, I would say that more Mac controls are needed because we have limited Mac and Linux control. When comparing controls and policies between Windows, Mac, and Linux, Windows has almost everything you can think of, while Mac and Linux have limited types of control. You cannot implement certain things on Mac and Linux that you can on Windows. The limited controls are a major issue. Additionally, if Microsoft could find a way to embed servers into Microsoft Intune, that would be beneficial. Microsoft Intune is not really designed for servers or Windows servers. It is more tailored towards Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems. Windows servers are not fully supported. Enterprise organizations usually have both servers and endpoints, which are users' workstations. For servers, most people look for other solutions such as SCCM, which is Configuration Manager. However, SCCM is what Microsoft Intune is trying to replace. Both SCCM and Microsoft Intune belong to Microsoft. Microsoft is trying to transition organizations into Microsoft Intune, the native cloud solution. However, because this update is still in process, servers are not fully compatible with Microsoft Intune and cannot be managed by it. The current policy that has emerged from issues with clients is what they call co-management, which is relatively new, and I do not know if adoption is significant. Many legacy or older customers who have been using these products for decades still have SCCM. When it is time for them to manage their Windows devices, they use what is called cloud attach. Cloud attach is a term whereby your SCCM is connected to your Microsoft Intune. Most people do not know about it, but I have deployed it for several organizations. Cloud attach and co-management work together so that your device is in SCCM, but some policies are pushed from Microsoft Intune. It is like two different solutions working hand in hand. That is what they call co-management. Microsoft Intune does not bring all of your endpoint and security management tools into one place, which is the goal and how it should be. However, as I mentioned, servers are not included. If we talk about end users, Microsoft Intune does bring all your devices together. In a typical enterprise environment, you have end users with workstations, laptops, company-issued phones, and bring your own devices. You can create policies for all of these. However, for the backend, your servers do not have much coverage. Servers are not really covered by Microsoft Intune in that way.

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.

Remote access has cut critical issue resolution time and supports faster production troubleshooting

Perhaps on the UI side of TeamViewer because we are connecting to different remote desktop connections or remote server connections. Whenever we are working on one of the production issues and we open multiple connections, it is very hectic or confusing to jump from one server to another server. Perhaps on the UI side, if they can improve something related to the view sessions or which session is connected to which remote server, that would be helpful. Perhaps something related to the authentication because it should have a proper authentication mechanism. Every developer should not access TeamViewer or the remote desktop by using TeamViewer. We always have a proper authentication or multifactor authentication mechanism in place, so only those on on-call support or P1 support at that time can access the remote server, but not anyone else. I chose nine out of 10 because sometimes we face the session timeout issue. Suppose during the production support, we connect to one of the remote servers, and if it is idle for approximately 10 or 15 minutes, the session timeout happens. We have to follow the same authentication mechanism to connect to the remote server again. During the session timeout, it delays our process or the troubleshooting steps, which is the reason I have given nine out of 10 instead of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is much easier to deploy software updates and Windows updates globally because of the cloud base, so I can manage from anywhere, making it quite convenient for me."

"Microsoft Intune is a cloud solution and we can manage everything, including Azure AD, Intune, and not only mobile hand devices, such as iOS or Android, but with the main focus on workstations, which is what makes the solution powerful."

"The Autopilot feature is the most valuable because it saves significant time on managing devices. We can ship devices globally, and users can set them up on their own. It's convenient."

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

"I like the tool's integration with Apple. Anyone who creates an ID in Intune will get an Apple ID."

"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."

"On the cloud, you can manage everything; you can push policies, maintain patches, and maintain security because everything interacts on the cloud and a VPN is not required."

"For the price, the features included with Microsoft are appealing."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."

"The solution is very quick to set up."

"The installation is almost instant."

"I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC."

"Technical support is very good and very fast; we find them to be very knowledgeable."

"One of the most convenient features is that I can print from it and do everything as I would if I were sitting at my own desktop."

"The technical support is good."

"TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization by giving us the ability to provide clients with a good experience and to fix bugs quickly while accessing their computers."

"Once you use it, you will never want to use another remote service product again."

"The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access, and anyone is able to use it because it is simple to use."

"It is quite simple to set up."

"From a cost perspective, it's a great buy."

"I have been satisfied with TeamViewer overall."

"TeamViewer allows us to do multiple controllers on a Host, which is great. We have a lot of Macs in our organization, and TeamViewer being cross-platform is a good thing."

"TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk."

More TeamViewer pros

Cons

"Certificate management within Microsoft Intune's Suite is still under development. It's not very reliable compared to other certificate tools, though it has made good progress within a couple of years."

"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."

"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."

"I would like to see better integration with Microsoft. There are a few things I can still do with Jamf that I am unable to do with Intune yet."

"Microsoft Intune needs to support out of the box Apple Managed Device and Apple Business Managed Device with zero-touch deployment capabilities, which is something competitors provide."

"The installation is very easy. However, to be able to configure it you will need special knowledge, such as training or self-studies to have a proper level of security. There are many settings one has to understand before being able to implement Microsoft Intune."

"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."

"If you're looking forward to deficiency, I'd say that the Endpoint Manager support at the lower levels is poor."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"The only problem is they have more than tripled their price in the last three years over what they used to charge."

"Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."

"This solution requires that the PC is "on" in order to reach it remotely. 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."

"We'd like to be able to work from mobile to desktop and vice versa. We'd like more mobility."

"When clients have a newer version installed and we only have a license for version 8, there are issues."

"Oftentimes, the session window blocks view of the system tray. I’d like to be able to minimize it or move it."

"In the past, use in wireless environments caused buffering due to limited bandwidth."

"TeamViewer could improve by having a cloud version. Having the solution on the system could cause some cyber security concerns with data."

"By comparison, TeamViewer is a complete mess; the way they do it is a total nightmare, and it does not work well."

"It would be very helpful if they could provide a manual for the installation process and describe more of their features."

"You can improve the file size of TeamViewer as it is too large."

More TeamViewer cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't have any problem as far as cost is concerned. It is bundled with our license."

"Microsoft Intune has a user-based subscription model. You can go for a monthly or a yearly payment."

"The price could be better."

"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."

"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."

"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."

"There are licenses required for this solution. We enable licenses on the devices we need to manage."

"The pricing is inherently reasonable, as Microsoft leverages market insights to maintain the total cost of ownership at around ninety to ninety-five percent of what would be incurred in an on-premise scenario."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"It was cheap and now it is comparably expensive. It costs me $484 to use the solution with just two physical PCs."

"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."

"The version of the solution we are using is free."

"There is no license needed to use TeamViewer."

"I used the free version of TeamViewer."

"The cost of the licenses depends on how you buy them. They just had a buy one get one free deal going, and they do that every once in a while. Where you buy one license, and they will give you the second one free, or you can try to get discounts. Most of our licenses that we have we tried to do something like that just to save some money."

"...it will cost you $1,500 to $1,600 a year, but when I think of how much work I do through TeamViewer..."

"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."

"It would be nice if it is cheaper."

"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
