The packaging of the solution or the offering of Hexnode UEM could be improved or enhanced, because one package does not fit all. Hexnode UEM should be flexible in its solution offering. Currently, they only have around three types of licenses or packages, and whether you use the solution or the features or not, they are already included in the suite. Some products offer an a la carte solution, so in order to compete with those products, Hexnode UEM should consider repackaging the solution with respect to the region where it is being offered. The solution offered to India might not be optimal if it is offered to the Philippines or a different country, so the offering should be on a country-by-country basis or a regional basis.

Digital documentation has boosted team efficiency and provides secure remote manual access
The best feature is the mobile access to SharePoint. It is incredibly valuable for our technicians to view wiring diagrams and manuals directly on their tablets while working under a vehicle. It removes the need to walk back to the office, saving about 20 minutes per job. Additionally, the data security features give me peace of mind; even if a tablet is broken in the shop, our business data remains safe in the cloud.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The agility is impressive, and it's simple to manage."
"It's very easy to use."
"Hexnode UEM has in-depth support of device operating systems, which is one of the most common requirements."
"The solution comes with many applications as part of the package which is useful."
"The solution is easy to use and flexible."
"I'm satisfied with how they handle data, and the people there are very friendly."
"The Exchange Online plan is helpful. It's built into the email, like a security feature or AI that helps to manage email. It has helped my company and clients a lot."
"Microsoft 365 Business is easy to use. Most companies use Microsoft Windows as an operating system making the use of this solution straightforward. There is a small learning curve and it is something everyone can adapt to easily."
"The subscription model of Microsoft 365 Business is beneficial since it provides continuous updates, including functional updates and transformations of the product."
"The scalability is very good."
"The installation process is very straightforward."
 

Cons

"The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer Spanish support."
"The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer Spanish support."
"The packaging of the solution or the offering of Hexnode UEM could be improved or enhanced, because one package does not fit all."
"Upgrading from the old version to the new version of Microsoft Teams created a lot of issues for small companies and larger enterprises."
"The solution could have better email automation."
"Most Microsoft applications are not the most user-friendly."
"The security features and the engine they are using are not good enough. They are not able to protect you from phishing attacks, which is the biggest drawback of this solution. We have been getting phishing emails, and I have been chasing Microsoft every single day. In terms of configuration, all the controls that they have recommended are in place, but we are still getting a lot of phishing emails. I would like to see a feature that allows us to share a folder from an online archive, which is a sort of mailbox attached to the primary mailbox. Currently, you can share folders, contacts, and calendars only in the primary mailbox. You can't share any folder or other things from the online archive. The limit of the primary mailbox is 50 GB, whereas the online archive is unlimited, so it would be useful if we can share a folder from the online archive."
"The solution isn't stable."
"The security sites need to be simplified and the technical support needs improvement."
"Microsoft needs to enhance its part in service management. I believe they have a product called Orchestrator, it does not get the same benefits and functionality as the rest of the solutions such as Dynamics or Office 365. They can improve by providing more integration with other solutions to cover the full business spectrum of needs, this would be a great benefit."
"They should have a consolidated app, rather than have different applications with a different app."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It could be cheaper. It's cloud-based, and we pay a yearly subscription."
"The price of its license should be improved. We have a contract for three years, but we pay on a yearly basis."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"The price could be cheaper. We have a yearly license."
"Given the current COVID situation, I am quite happy that we use this product. With a cheaper solution, we might end up needing support."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive and the price could be lowered. For example, if I want to purchase a personal Office 365 subscription, they have pricing that does not have the flexibility to choose a wide range of storage sizes, you are limited to a lower amount. If you then switch to the Business version to receive the larger storage offering it is too large and expensive. If they would allow customers to choose the storage size on-demand it would be beneficial and a big improvement."
"Everything is offered as a bundle package."
