Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.
Stephen Yarrow - PeerSpot reviewer
Great for remote support sessions with no maintenance and excellent technical support
The remote support session is great. We really like ISL Light. That's what we use all the time. We use it almost every day. Some people use other solutions like Splashtop, for instance, where you can do unattended support. Personally, I don't like unattended support. I would worry if it would be secure. There's no way I'd want someone logging onto my machine when I'm not here. With this, I log to ISL, I give them a pin number, and they have to physically type in the pin number and physically agree to them sharing their screen. It's much more secure than some of the other solutions like TeamViewer and Splashtop where you can do unattended support. It's more secure than any of the other products out there, available at the moment. The stability is great. It's got very good uptime. The technical support is great. Setting up the solution is easy and there's no maintenance involved.
Sanjay Patankar - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to install and has lots of resources but need to improve performance
It's a remote access solution. We use it for conferences, meetings, and communication.  It works just like other communications tools. It also integrates well with Office 365 and Outlook, et cetera. The performance is good.  It's got a lot of resources for users.  The product is easy to install.…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If you need only to load a specific profile and you don't have deep security functionalities, et cetera, Intune is very nice and good."
"Windows Autopatch is the most valuable because it removes the burden of patch management."
"Intune helps the organization manage access to its internal apps, data, and resources."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is that it is more of a one-stop shop, providing an easier experience."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is patching-related capabilities."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is that it is more of a one-stop shop, providing an easier experience."
"It is user-friendly, and the performance is also good. It is a convenient product"
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"Setting up the solution is easy and there's no maintenance involved."
"It's much easier to connect with other services, and it's working great. We haven't had any problems."
"We like drawing utilities inside ISL. That helps us mark specific regions on the screen, so that end users know what to focus on."
"The solution has a lot of features. It does what it is made to do and that's all we can ask for, really."
"I personally really appreciate the file transfer feature as it is really easy to use."
"We can also monitor our systems at any time from practically anywhere."
"The most valuable feature is safety."
"The code can be delivered in multiple ways, including an email with a link for an unattended connection."
"It's very beneficial and time effective on how we are able to provide quick support. We've quadrupled our effectiveness as an IT support because we have cut down all that unnecessary travel time, even between floors."
"The pilot feature is what stands out the most. I love the ability to use the pilot feature for remote inspections. The augmented portion of the software comes in handy when I have to assist my inspectors. They use the app in the field, and they show me what they're seeing through their phones."
"The solution is very stable. We've never had a problem with it."
"TeamViewer allows us to do multiple controllers on a Host, which is great. We have a lot of Macs in our organization, and TeamViewer being cross-platform is a good thing."
"It's a user-friendly product."
"TeamViewer is stable."
"The solution is scalable."
"The product allows easy access to any system in case of any issues."
 

Cons

"I would like to see Intune improve its handling of hybrid domain joins."
"Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"We only have major classifications for iOS and Android, but there are different brands that have different cycles of updates. If they can fine-tune it to make it more brand-specific, that would be even better."
"Technical support can be challenging when resources shift, requiring repeated explanations. Support from India sometimes provides information without the right solution."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"It would be helpful if they had iSupport for supporting Apple phones."
"I would like to be able to access and manage all brands of smartphones."
"There have been times during updates when something wouldn't work quite right, however, they are quick with updates and quick with fixes."
"If there is an update or new feature on ISL Online, I don't know about it. I would be happy to receive a newsletter or notification of new features or updates."
"They should improve the integrations with other incident management software to be able to send the link directly from these platforms."
"There could be a section in the menu describing the new features and changes."
"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."
"They need to better advertise the features."
"There is a paid version of this solution with more features available. However, they should provide more free features to the user, such as factor authentication."
"Some of the additional features, like the meeting stuff, is making it too cluttered."
"They should release features such as Augmented Reality into both plain and standard versions of TeamViewer."
"Every now and then you'll get a silent crash and you relaunch the application. But it happens no more than with anything else in the Windows environment."
"TeamViewer has a legacy and may not be using the latest UI trends."
"TeamViewer could improve by adding support for other operating systems, such as Linux and CAKE."
"The support could improve their speed."
"I can use up to three computers, but sometimes I have four. So, it would be nice to have at least four computers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"The pricing is not cheap, especially with inflation. They've had to increase their prices. It's not excessive, but alright."
"It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved. It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"I rate Intune five out of 10 for pricing. It's expensive."
"Intune is included with our F3 and E5 licenses."
"The purchase of the product was handled by someone else."
"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 solution's pricing is reasonable."
"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."
"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."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"There is no license needed to use TeamViewer."
"We have a permanent license and the price is reasonable."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
