Shows group analytics with good UI but needs improvement in GPO
The solution helps with group analytics.  Imanami GroupID's UI is good.  The product's implementation is complex. It should also work on GPO.  I have been using the solution for two years.  I rate the tool's stability an eight out of ten.  I rate Imanami GroupID's scalability an eight out of…

Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement
The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Imanami GroupID's UI is good."
"For each job code, we go through and determine the access they're supposed to have to the system, and based on that job code, we use the query tool so that anybody who is in this job code gets these groups added to them, or conversely, if they change job codes, it removes the ones that they shouldn't have and adds the one they should, which runs every night so that the next day everybody has the job codes they're supposed to have."
"I have found the overall features to be useful."
"The platform makes the mobile device management process straightforward to handle."
"When compared to other products, AirWatch is highly scalable, redundant, reliable, and easily manageable."
"For an organization like us, we have the same platform and want to manage multiple devices, and it is the best solution for us right now."
"The most valuable feature for us is the contained browser of the product."
"Right now, everything that I've looked at from an AirWatch standpoint that it says it does this, this and this, it has been able to do and do well."
"The solution can scale."
"We used to have a system before, Mac OS Open Directory server and this open directory became obsolete because Apple decided to stop the enterprise market, so there was no other alternative for us to use. We chose this to replace the open directory and we found that it has many more features than the previous solution. We totally rely on it right now to manage all the devices on campus."
"The product is very stable."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see a better user interface. It works, but it is clunky. There should be better import and export of LDAP queries and better management tools."
"The product's implementation is complex. It should also work on GPO."
"The mobile application needs to be improved and there should be chatbox features to allow users to easily reach out for assistance."
"The solution's pre-stage enrollment could be improved."
"Setup is not too complex."
"For the purpose that this solution is designed for it works great, but it doesn't compare well with other solutions."
"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration."
"It hasn’t always been good, but getting better."
"There could be improvements to Workspace ONE in terms of the pricing and some security aspects such as data loss prevention."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"The mobile device repository is somewhat difficult to manage with a large user base."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"It is on a yearly basis, and it has the product license fee and the support for it. So, there is the licensing fee, and there is the annual maintenance that includes the support. I don't remember exactly, but we're probably paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 to $30,000 for it per year. We've got a pretty large implementation of it, and for the amount that we do, it is a pretty good deal. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
"If you have a host of custom requirements (including licensing), make sure to set aside enough time for the initial setup because it can take up to a few weeks depending on how complex your environment is."
"The price of the solution is costly for the number of users I am using it for."
"We are paying about $145,000 a year on a three-year subscription with no ability to scale up or scale down within that class model."
"Depending on the requirements of users, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product."
"VMware Workspace ONE can fit any organization because if you need more devices there are only additional fees."
"Licensing fees are paid on a monthly basis."
"The cost is a little bit high."
"The tool is expensive."
