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.

Offers scalability and ability to create granular policies
It is a very easy-to-manage and granular policy-based solution.  Policies that you can create per device per user behavior are the most valuable feature In future releases, I would like to see more automation or bringing in AI into to understand device behavior. I have been using it for five…

Useful tunneling, beneficial enterprise integration, and priced well
The scalability of MobileIron UEM is good for on-premise and cloud deployments. MobileIron UEM has given the customer the ability to manage how many devices they have. If they have more than 10,000 devices, they need to upgrade the server. For example, they might need to upgrade the CPU or memory, et cetera. We have approximately 5,000 to 10,000 users using this solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its price is reasonable. It is a part of our M365 suite."
"It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails."
"Overall, the stability is good."
"Intune's feature that I have found most valuable is its auto-pilot feature."
"Configuration profiles, remediation, scripts, and auto-pilot features are very good."
"I like the tool's integration with Apple. Anyone who creates an ID in Intune will get an Apple ID."
"Agile and easy to deploy MDM solution that covers the maximum number of policies. Stable, scalable, and with knowledgeable technical support."
"Fortunately, now everything is streamlined into a single, unified platform."
"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Avalanche are the remote control and the file transfer."
"Installing the packages remotely and remote control are the most valuable features. There are around 100 pieces or devices, and the only way to send a package to a device is by connecting to the PC and then manually sending the package. By using Avalanche, we can send a package to all devices with one click. It is very stable and easy to use. Their technical support is also very good. We have implemented this solution for our clients, and they are satisfied with this solution. It does what it is meant to do."
"The solution is easy to work with. I like its stability and flexibility."
"The most useful feature of Avalanche is remote control — especially the ability to remotely install packages to many devices all at once. When the client has, for example, 100 devices needing updates, it would take far too long to update each device individually. But with Avalanche, we just connect to all the devices through the PC and send the updates out with one click."
"It is a very easy-to-manage and granular policy-based solution. Policies that you can create per device per user behavior are the most valuable feature."
"The terminal remediation feature is valuable."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"The company provides great customer service."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
 

Cons

"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"The difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite."
"Onboarding of endpoint devices is not straightforward. The onboarding process was a little heavier than I thought it would be. That's the key improvement area. Obviously, the more control you have over the devices, the better it is."
"I rate Microsoft support between six to eight. The support often involves third parties hired by Microsoft who are knowledgeable, but sometimes the help I receive is not adequate."
"The solution's app deployment needs to be improved."
"Reporting and troubleshooting for the application deployment could be better. It's very difficult to understand."
"Intune is not the most user-friendly mobile device management platform available."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"Its price could be improved. It could be cheaper. I would like to see a better approach for Android and an easy way to send packages and manage devices."
"The tool's stability could be better."
"The solution can improve by adding a kiosk mode option to the devices."
"Because our clients are all very satisfied with Ivanti from their side, there is little I can say about room for improvement. However, I think that to stay competitive with other solutions offering a similiar solution, Ivanti could look into making their products more affordable."
"In future releases, I would like to see more automation or bringing in AI into to understand device behavior."
"There is a lack of flexibility."
"MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."
"UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti. The test team or the testing procedures are flawed because they release new versions with numerous basic issues."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"All security solutions worldwide are expensive. Microsoft has allowed a small scale of features within Microsoft Intune for cost-efficient solutions. If you want the full suite, you need to invest more to gain better security features."
"Pricing can be improved."
"Previously the price was $4 per month per user. Now it's $2.25 per user per month."
"We don't pay for Intune because it is bundled with the premium subscription to Office 365. It includes Intune and Defender. I don't have to buy two extra products to manage my enterprise."
"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."
"Intune's pricing is reasonable considering its benefits and the high costs it helps avoid."
"I am satisfied with the pricing."
"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."
"Although the solution is a bit costly in my opinion, for customers who really need this solution, Ivanti Avalanche is worth it."
"It is expensive. Its price could be cheaper."
"Other than the standard licensing fee, there aren't any additional or hidden costs, although I believe Avalanche could be made more affordable in general."
"You will need to purchase licenses for each device."
"The license is based on assets. I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The price of MobileIron UEM is very good."
"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."
