Centralized device management has transformed security and streamlined remote provisioning
One area where Microsoft Intune can improve is the user interface. Sometimes the portal feels a bit complex and not very intuitive, especially for new users, and it can take time to find specific settings. Another point is troubleshooting. While logs are available, the diagnostic policies and sync issues can still be time-consuming and not very straightforward. I also feel that reporting could be more detailed and customizable. The built-in reports are helpful, but for deeper insights, I often need to rely on additional tools. Overall, it is a strong solution, but improving usability and troubleshooting experience would make it even better. While Microsoft Intune works very well within the Microsoft ecosystem, the integration of some third-party tools could be smoother and require less customization. Support is another area that could improve, as sometimes response times can be slow, and resolving complex issues may take longer than expected. In terms of features, I think more advanced automation and built-in remediation options would be helpful since common issues can be fixed automatically without manual intervention.

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.

Reliable remote access has improved secure collaboration and streamlined daily approvals
The best features TeamViewer Business offers in my opinion are collaboration, templates, a high level of security, and session recording. Collaboration allows me to collaborate remotely with my team members. Besides reconnecting automatically, it provides a high level of security, protecting from cyber attacks and aids in providing assurance in regulated environments through two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption features. It also allows recording live sessions, which can be replayed as needed for future reference. TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as collaboration has enhanced, especially remote collaboration by 60 to 70 percent. I have been able to collaborate with clients and other team members seamlessly. Enhanced workflow efficiency includes faster approvals and a lowered risk of data loss, misuse, and leak through robust features like two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. It also facilitates compliance using documentation and auditing through recordings and logs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Intune is a very effective solution from my understanding, and I definitely would recommend it."
"By using Microsoft Intune, I can control my Outlook on my phone, and whenever I try to open any file attachment, it will be more secure."
"The solution is easy to use and it has good performance."
"What I have found most useful in Microsoft Intune is creating an environment where customers or clients need someone to work immediately with an out-of-box experience."
"It has a useful device management feature."
"Overall, the stability is good."
"I appreciate Intune's autopilot feature, which allows us to enroll devices and install applications to meet corporate requirements seamlessly."
"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."
"The installation is almost instant."
"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."
"Technical support is very good and very fast; we find them to be very knowledgeable."
"I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC."
"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."
"The technical support is good."
"The solution is very quick to set up."
"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."
"TeamViewer Business does a lot in the enterprise part and has many features that can be used in big organizations, and it is able to assist on the network side, monitoring, security side, and remote side, making it a good platform and solution to use."
"Our computers are spread amongst six physical locations. TeamViewer reduces the need to travel to those offices to help staff."
"TeamViewer has a good interface."
"Before TeamViewer, our remote personnel had to rely on taped video training, but now they get one-on-one training as I walk them through things on their computers."
"Easy-to-save access to remote machines: TeamViewer allows you to save machines to your account, which allows you to remote into a machine with ease."
"The dashboards they have are good."
"Go ahead, it’s the best of all the remote access software products."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the high performance and it is not complicated to use, neither for me nor for the one I'm helping."
 

Cons

"If we could remote into a device, it would be great. Currently, we cannot directly connect to the user device. We have to use other tools such as VMware for connecting to devices."
"Automatic updating is pretty rough. It doesn't give me as much control as I had in the past."
"The synchronization could be improved."
"The mobile management is good for iPhone and iPad, but the Apple Mac management needs improvement. That is probably because Microsoft does not have low-level access to Apple Mac hardware. If you are doing basic things, it is okay, but if you want to image Apple Macs and do things like that, then Jamf is much better."
"The reporting functionality of Microsoft Intune is limited compared to Microsoft System Center, which offers many more reporting options."
"There are differences in protecting the data on a mobile device and on iOS. When you protect the data on iOS, you protect the entire device."
"There are challenges with Intune, specifically in reporting. Many third-party companies offer single-pane-of-glass reporting that shows you what your update environment looks like, how your patch is doing, application status, etc., but Intune's reporting is not intuitive."
"There are a few security features that are not available in Microsoft Intune, when compared to other products."
"Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."
"If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot."
"The only problem is they have more than tripled their price in the last three years over what they used to charge."
"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."
"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 connection and reconnection sometimes lag and can cause problems."
"But still, I think the price factor for small business."
"The solution could be improved by enhancing the use of the mobile version to be used on phones."
"There have been a few times when TeamViewer has been down globally, so that’s definitely an issue for consideration."
"I would like to see TeamViewer support multiple platforms."
"The solution could have better scalability."
"By comparison, TeamViewer is a complete mess; the way they do it is a total nightmare, and it does not work well."
"I would like it if the trial version of TeamViewer allowed you to have a connection for much longer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is expensive."
"Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap."
"The price of Intune is often included as part of a bundle with other Microsoft licenses, which makes it somewhat cheaper."
"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."
"Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value."
"It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there."
"Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses."
"It comes with the E5 plan. We bought the E5 plan from Microsoft."
"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."
"It would be nice if it is cheaper."
"TeamViewer was willing to give us a one-year package. Whereas, a lot of the other companies that we explored were paid by the month or quarter. It's just easier for our finance people at the college if we can make a one-time yearly payment."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"It does what I need it to do but I think it's expensive. It wasn't easy for me to get approval from the company to get it... It's costing us about $700 a year, per license."
"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."
"We're using the free version. We do not pay any licensing fees."
