Centralized device management has transformed security and streamlined remote provisioning
One area where Microsoft Intune can improve is the user interface. Sometimes the portal feels a bit complex and not very intuitive, especially for new users, and it can take time to find specific settings. Another point is troubleshooting. While logs are available, the diagnostic policies and sync issues can still be time-consuming and not very straightforward. I also feel that reporting could be more detailed and customizable. The built-in reports are helpful, but for deeper insights, I often need to rely on additional tools. Overall, it is a strong solution, but improving usability and troubleshooting experience would make it even better. While Microsoft Intune works very well within the Microsoft ecosystem, the integration of some third-party tools could be smoother and require less customization. Support is another area that could improve, as sometimes response times can be slow, and resolving complex issues may take longer than expected. In terms of features, I think more advanced automation and built-in remediation options would be helpful since common issues can be fixed automatically without manual intervention.

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.

Secure, reliable, and great for remote access
It makes access very easy. If we have to work at night or after office hours, if customers report a problem, we can solve issues remotely, outside of office hours, from wherever. The initial setup is straightforward. The solution is stable. It is scalable. Technical support is easy to reach.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very informative when there is an error. It allows us to backtrace where the error is and resolve that ourselves. It's a bit of a Swiss Army penknife. We find that it fixes most issues."
"Mobile device management is most valuable."
"I would say the biggest benefit is the single-pane view. There's no jumping around multiple UI's to do your overall management."
"We saw approximately forty to fifty percent reduction in manual device setup time with Microsoft Intune as onboarding became fully automated."
"When comparing Microsoft Intune to Jamf, Microsoft Intune is superior."
"We saw a strong return on investment with Microsoft Intune, as it reduced the time spent on device provisioning, software deployment, and security policy management through automation and centralized control while also enabling faster onboarding for new devices, improved compliance management, and lower operational overhead for the IT team by reducing the need for manual device configuration and support."
"The interface is user-friendly, and the reporting tool works in real-time."
"The security compliance capabilities make it widely adopted across organizations."
"We can also monitor our systems at any time from practically anywhere."
"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."
"The solution has a lot of features. It does what it is made to do and that's all we can ask for, really."
"Good communication is a key to good business and ISL helps a lot."
"We are just much more responsive, we can be faster, and we can support our customers in a better way because when they have a problem, we can be on their computer immediately."
"It's much easier to connect with other services, and it's working great. We haven't had any problems."
"The most valuable feature is safety."
"We like drawing utilities inside ISL. That helps us mark specific regions on the screen, so that end users know what to focus on."
"Screen monitoring and screen sharing, as well as screen remote control, are all very useful features."
"Technical support is easy to reach."
"For five years of using the product, there are no issues; there are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze."
"It is a scalable solution. "
 

Cons

"I think nine is a very good rating for this solution, and I kept one point out because I think in the future it requires improvement based on future scalability in the IT infrastructure."
"Microsoft Intune can be improved by making it even more seamless for users to download their certificates."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"If you wish to block any App Store application, there is no way to do so."
"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."
"I think there should be a better tracking of the cell phones used on the Intune."
"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"Intune lags all of its competitors in terms of report generation."
"They should improve the integrations with other incident management software to be able to send the link directly from these platforms."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Support could be more knowledgeable."
"They do have some glitches in the microphone and speaker, especially during remote access."
"Support could be more knowledgeable."
"It could be integrated with IT management tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is not cost-effective as a standalone product."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."
"Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."
"There are licenses required for this solution. We enable licenses on the devices we need to manage."
"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."
"I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"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."
"Its scalability depends on the business model we purchase."
