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.

Easy to deploy, stable, scalable and safe

I previously used TeamViewer. ISL Online is definitely the better choice compared to TeamViewer, as it offers a more secure connection that does not involve peer-to-peer transport, and all data is encrypted. A single license for ISL Online costs about the same as TeamViewer but with multiple licenses, ISL Online is cheaper.

Able to boot into safe mode or standard mode remotely and reliable performance

I've only had to deal with it once. Because of the custom package we have, a white-label package, I can only think of one issue maybe six or seven years ago. I don't even remember what it was. At that time, I think they were pretty responsive. Very few companies offer phone support anymore; everyone's gone the way of email responses. I'm having that problem with CorelDRAW right now, and I'm waiting three weeks for a technician. So it's a good thing it's not important. Are the customer service and support good? For me, they're as good as anybody else, maybe not as good as some companies, but probably better than most. We deal with HP, IBM, HCL. Some companies only offer email support, and you have to wait for a response. I'm trying to remember the last time I interacted with Splashtop support. They do give you an answer. On a scale of one to ten, they're nine plus. You rarely have to use them, but I'm satisfied when you do.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."

"Intune is flexible. If you want to move a device that was previously on-prem, we can bring it to the cloud and apply all the policies. This is helpful for even those organizations that were on-prem and not on the cloud. They can also come and use these features, which are pretty cool and would be handy to protect the data and manage the devices as well."

"Intune is the best tool going forward because everyone is moving to the cloud."

"The user experience of Microsoft Intune is quite good because there's not much disturbance in the background; it's just running in the background."

"I really appreciate the features in Microsoft Intune, including the Intune Suite Cloud PKI."

"The ability to switch between Affinity and non-Affinity enrollment is great."

"There has been a noticeable increase in productivity for both my organization and clients."

"The solution is scalable, and we currently have tens of thousands of users within our organization using the solution."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"Overall, we are very pleased with this solution, for us, it simply works 99.9% of the time."

"The stability is great; reliability is what's very important to me, as well as security, and this solution may have only had one instance of downtime in 14 years."

"ISL Online is easy to use. It provides a single platform on which we can do everything, and it's very low maintenance. After installation, you don't need an IT manager or staff to watch over it. It's secure. It's most important for us."

"The code can be delivered in multiple ways, including an email with a link for an unattended connection."

"Setting up the solution is easy and there's no maintenance involved."

"I personally really appreciate the file transfer feature as it is really easy to use."

"ISL Online is easy to use and it provides a single platform for various challenges we face in IT."

"We like drawing utilities inside ISL. That helps us mark specific regions on the screen, so that end users know what to focus on."

More ISL Online pros

"The solution is very fast."

"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."

"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."

"Splashtop Remote Support is my main product, and I use it daily. Its main function is to control systems, which is essential remotely. Additionally, it has useful features such as chat functionality, file transfer, and the ability to add notes with information about a computer or server. Despite being simple software, it is very useful and valuable."

"The SOS Support is a most valuable feature, as we have remote access from our phone, there is no need to install the software, and we can do it on the cloud."

"With the extended license, it's easy to be remote."

"The initial setup is simple."

"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."

More Splashtop Remote Support pros

Cons

"Regarding mobile devices, Intune is good, but there are other services that I would say are ahead of Intune from an administration and reporting point of view."

"Manually syncing devices to enforce policies is cumbersome."

"In the past, I raised some tickets for the enhancement feature, which was missing in Intune."

"The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments."

"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."

"There are some issues using the solution with macOS and iOS, and it offers limited granular control with them. Intune works better on Windows and Android."

"There is room for improvement in the remediation and detection modules, which are currently about eighty percent fully functional."

"The support is not very good. It's very poor."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"They need to better advertise the features."

"Updating the program could be improved. When they're pushing updates, you don't really know that there's an update available."

"What bothered me the most was that when I connected to the computer at the office, I was afraid that someone would turn on the monitor and watch what I was doing."

"It would be helpful if they had iSupport for supporting Apple phones."

"We miss the possibility to communicate via head-set in ISL. At the moment, we combine ISL for visual communication with Skype for verbal communication."

"There have been times during updates when something wouldn't work quite right, however, they are quick with updates and quick with fixes."

"There could be a section in the menu describing the new features and changes."

"I would like to be able to access and manage all brands of smartphones."

More ISL Online cons

"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."

"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."

"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."

"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."

"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."

"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."

"The integration features could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another."

"On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five."

"Our enterprise agreement includes Microsoft Intune at no additional cost."

"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."

"It is cheap, but as compared to Google, it is costly. Google is cheaper, but quality-wise, Microsoft Intune is better."

"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."

"Microsoft offers some licensing where it's included at no extra cost when customers are already using the licenses. In such a case, it's a really good value. If you have to buy the licensing for it, it's probably on par with other solutions. It isn't substantially more or less expensive. The great thing is that it is included in some of Microsoft's licensed packages. So, some customers don't have to spend additional money for it. Typically, most providers that support Intune do charge a management fee of some sort or some fee. Certainly, we're no exception."

"Pricing depends on the features. Microsoft offers special packages if there are more than 10,000 users, and you may be able to get a reduced rate."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"We have a pay-per-use license available for 500 minutes within one year for 95 Euros. However, this option is not popular. Alternatively, we can purchase a one-year license for 339 Euros; if we need two licenses, the cost is double, and for three licenses, the cost is triple with a ten percent discount. For 99 Euros a year, we can open multiple sessions on the same computer with a multi-session subscription."

"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."

"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."

"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
