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 user-friendly, and the performance is also good. It is a convenient product"

"Intune is a very good cloud solution for managing devices."

"I believe that the solution is actually in Gartner's top quadrant at the moment for mobile device management."

"At the moment, Autopilot is the most valuable feature."

"Intune significantly simplifies application deployment, mobile application management, and policy enforcement, such as restricting user access to specific applications, thereby enhancing overall environment security."

"Microsoft Intune has positively impacted our organization by improving our overall security posture through enforcing compliance policies and reducing access from unmanaged devices."

"What I value most about Microsoft Intune is that it is a cloud-native tool and is embedded into Premium at a reasonable cost."

"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."

More Microsoft Intune pros

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

"The technical support is good."

"The installation is almost instant."

"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."

"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 solution is very quick to set up."

"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ability for administrators to lock the remote systems, simple connections, and easy login access."

"Ever since we have been using TeamViewer Business, because of how quick it is to connect to a user across the globe, we have been able to close tickets rapidly."

"The real-time access has been excellent."

"I find the mouse control and the ability to click for them very effective. I can move the mouse and click on buttons as if sitting at their computer. These are the basic features I use most often in the solution. There are tricker features that I don't use much because I don't need them frequently. Overall, it's a great tool for helping others with their computer issues without traveling to their location or another building."

"TeamViewer is a very good product to use."

"TeamViewer is fast and easy to manipulate."

"The usability and graphic interface stand out for me because it is very easy to understand, with upper bars, all the features, and the file transfer functionality."

"TeamViewer has been one of the easiest, right off the bat products, that we have employed at the college. We have had no issues. It's been one of the easiest solutions to pick up."

More TeamViewer pros

Cons

"I have not been satisfied with it, and I am planning to change it soon. There are a lot of updates coming from Microsoft that suddenly affect our security policies."

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

"The reports aren't complete, and it's not easy to build custom reports."

"Reporting in Microsoft Intune presents challenges because the built-in reports are often too basic."

"Customer service is not really good. I would give it a six out of ten. The main issue is the time it takes to get someone involved who truly understands what the product does."

"Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention."

"They should make it easier to order it, however, that's generally true for everything from Microsoft."

"Microsoft Intune has potential for improvement; I would like to see a lot more customization in the reporting tools."

More Microsoft Intune cons

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

"This solution requires that the PC is "on" in order to reach it remotely. If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot."

"Support for mobile devices from Linux has been missing since the Native client was rolled out. This was a nice option, especially when trying to walk somebody who was struggling to understand something on their phone."

"The business interface is clunky and not well-documented."

"TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money."

"Quick User Switching has a very nasty tendency to render the screen output unstable."

"The SSO feature of the solution may sometimes not function perfectly…Pricing might be improved for TeamViewer Tensor."

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

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

"Full integration of computer's user account system. Be able to login using the local computer's credentials rather than setting up a unique Teamviewer account/password."

More TeamViewer cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license needed for this solution and it is either included in one of the enterprise license agreements. Microsoft licensing is a mathematical institute, it could be quite complex. We tend to ask specialized organizations to research what the most profitable way it would be for us to use licenses in the organizations."

"Based on the features that it gives, it is cost-efficient. It is not necessarily on the expensive side of the scale. It provides a hefty number of features that any organization would want. It is in a good price range."

"Microsoft licenses are costly."

"There is a cost benefit of using Microsoft Intune because of the packaging with other Microsoft products."

"I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall."

"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."

"Most of our clients come to us with licensing already in place. On average, it costs $6 per device per month to add Intune to an Office 365 subscription, but I am not sure."

"I rate Intune five out of 10 for pricing. It's expensive."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

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

"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."

"TeamViewer pricing is reasonable... The simultaneous controller licensing model of TeamViewer - compared to LogMeIn’s controlled Host licensing model - seems to benefit us so far. We’re currently saving about 30 percent on licensing cost... The savings from licensing have been eaten up by the soft costs involved in dealing with and working around TeamViewer’s deficiencies in allowing granular control by multiple controllers, and the issues with the various settings that are missing on the macOS Host."

"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."

"The price of the license could be less expensive."

"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."

"I used the free version of TeamViewer."

"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
