Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.
ErikDas - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Heiko Humpert - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows an ease of access to various systems and has a straightforward setup process
The product allows easy access to any system in case of any issues We cannot see the number of monitors working on the system simultaneously. It becomes complicated to switch from one monitor to another for different windows. The product's stability depends on the network's stability in our…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Intune is very stable due to its cloud-based infrastructure and its reliability in performance."
"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."
"It is a cloud-based service. It is easy to use and offers privacy."
"Mobile device management is most valuable."
"I really appreciate the features in Microsoft Intune, including the Intune Suite Cloud PKI."
"The policy and compliance monitoring of devices and the software deployment are most valuable."
"The ability to push applications on devices is valuable. You do not have to manually install applications one by one. If you like to use ten different applications, you do not have to manually go and download them one by one. Intune can compile a package for you, and then you can just push them from the admin center."
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"The most valuable feature is safety."
"The solution has a lot of features. It does what it is made to do and that's all we can ask for, really."
"Setting up the solution is easy and there's no maintenance involved."
"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."
"I personally really appreciate the file transfer feature as it is really easy to use."
"The code can be delivered in multiple ways, including an email with a link for an unattended connection."
"We like drawing utilities inside ISL. That helps us mark specific regions on the screen, so that end users know what to focus on."
"It's much easier to connect with other services, and it's working great. We haven't had any problems."
"TeamViewer is fast and easy to manipulate."
"I have found the solution to be user-friendly even for beginners. It is not that sophisticated. There are different types of security features available, such as encryption and random machine ID."
"TeamViewer is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is very fast. The file transfer from remote machines to my machine or from my machine to the remote machine works well."
"We also use it a lot for remote site assistance. We've set up our internal authentication for unattended access to our remote sites. That makes it very easy and convenient to remotely connect with our users and our client machines whenever we need to. It's set as a direct, secure connection. As long as the station has internet access, we can see it and it makes remote support very simple."
"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 TeamViewer system has some built-in security. The TeamViewer client connects to the TeamViewer host securely. Only a certain number of authorized users on our side have access to the system. Even within that, an individual endpoint can be assigned to a group, where not everybody has access but, rather, just one or two people who are part of a support team might have access to that particular device. So TeamViewer has given us tools to be able to segregate who has access to different things."
"The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. Anyone is able to use it, it is simple to use."
 

Cons

"The security features should be improved."
"I would like to see micro VPN. I like the way that some of the other providers have done something similar where, as you open that app on an end-point device, it creates a micro VPN straight into your device, which is quite a nice little feature. Also, Microsoft Intune relies heavily on its fellow products in the suite. It would be nice if Microsoft Intune could stand on its own two feet."
"The user interface should be more user-friendly, as it can sometimes be challenging to navigate. Microsoft often relocates features, making it difficult to consistently find what I need."
"An area for improvement is the absence of seamless integration, particularly with external dashboards."
"It's the granularity: 'Is your firewall on? Is BitLocker on?' It's not amazing granularity. But I've looked into other products, like Duo, and they're all similar."
"Microsoft Intune lacks live location tracking capabilities. Improvements should be made in terms of MDM platforms for other devices."
"China blocks Google and Google Play Store, which makes installation challenging. Microsoft Intune is a company software, which has to be installed to the app portal or Microsoft Software Center."
"I would like to see better integration with Microsoft."
"I would like to have a little bit more information when new features are released. They have added features that I didn't know about in the past. It would be easier for me to implement new features and consolidate them with other systems in our network if I knew beforehand."
"They need to better advertise the features."
"It would be helpful if they had iSupport for supporting Apple phones."
"There have been times during updates when something wouldn't work quite right, however, they are quick with updates and quick with fixes."
"I would like to be able to access and manage all brands of smartphones."
"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."
"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 could be a section in the menu describing the new features and changes."
"Voice communication and screen communication or face-to-face communication could be improved."
"The business interface is clunky and not well-documented."
"It should have ability to display notes in the computer list."
"The product can sometimes crash."
"Sometimes, the app can be a little cumbersome when accessing certain aspects of the program."
"Considering the earlier versions of the product, I think TeamViewer used to slow down the systems."
"It's pretty limited on the options they have."
"The performance could always be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I have no comment on pricing of the solution."
"It's a part of Microsoft 365 and E5 licenses. Microsoft's strategy of making every feature in Microsoft Intune paid needs optimization. Remote control is one of the basic features, not a luxury feature, yet we must pay for it. I"
"The pricing is good because customers are not complaining about it."
"The overall pricing of Microsoft Intune is good for companies that have big IT budgets, 3,000 or more users and devices."
"The cost of the license and the features are justified for myself as a technical person."
"Cost is not my department, but the product is included in the E5 license that we already pay for every user, so no additional cost is incurred."
"On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five."
"While I don't have access to high-level financial information, I believe we have achieved lower costs with this implementation."
"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 has a pilot feature that is expensive. The overall price of the solution can be cheaper."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"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."
"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."
"The price of the license could be less expensive."
"We have a corporate license. The maximum amount number of users changes based on the amount you pay. E.g., with our license, there is a maximum amount of users who can use the solution at the same time (10 users)."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
