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.

Efficient patch and asset management with room for reporting enhancements
One of the best things about Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that the agents it uses are very lightweight, so they don’t slow down our systems. It also gives us great visibility during deployments—we can see exactly what’s happening and collect all the necessary data. The system shows us codes that help us understand what’s going on in each environment. For example, every month we roll out patches, and monitoring is a big part of that. We can check the status of each machine without having to log into them individually. It also helps us troubleshoot issues by showing the exact error codes, which makes fixing problems much easier. Ivanti also lets us organize our servers and devices in a way that makes sense for us—by operating system, group, or IP address. This helps us manage everything more efficiently. Patching is one of our main tasks, and Ivanti gives us detailed information about each patch. Another great part is the training and support Ivanti offers. The training helps us learn how to use all the features, and the support team is always there when we need help. Since we work in a large environment, Ivanti is a great fit—it’s built to handle big setups and makes it easy to group and manage everything. We even use it to deploy our own in-house apps, not just third-party software.

Feature-rich, easy to use, and has responsive technical support
We are working on the proof of concept for both MobileIron and Workspace ONE. We are only testing MobileIron and Workspace ONE. After that, we will decide which device to use. Workspace ONE by VMware Similarly, we will use MobileIron as a mobile device management tool, allowing us to manage our endpoints remotely. So far, we have not had any issues with VMware, and we have resolved some, if not all, of the issues. I have been testing with VMware Workspace ONE for the same amount of time as MobileIron UEM, three weeks. We are using the latest version, and it is deployed on a public cloud. The cloud provider is VMware. I have also been working with Google Chrome. Google Workspace is an email production tool provided by Google. We don't have a firewall because we're in the cloud right now. We have no on-premises network and all of our systems are hosted in the cloud.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like Intune's ability to install software to a device remotely and push policy through the Azure portal."
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera"
"Windows Autopatch is the most valuable because it removes the burden of patch management."
"We can manage and standardize security across your environment, identify problems, receive alerts, and so on. That's its purpose, and that's also why it's so good."
"Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click."
"I like how Intune brings everything into one place. For example, you can set up conditional access to applications and devices inside Intune. I also like the segregation inside the Intune devices. You can segregate them by Windows, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Android. You can sort it by platform, so you don't need to go into the devices section."
"Its direct integration with all the other products that we have from Microsoft is valuable. We're using the E5 license, and we have a whole wealth of different products available. It just makes it easier to have everything from one provider."
"Intune saves time, and it is very easy to use. It allows us to manage applications completely."
"The best features of Ivanti Endpoint Manager are that the agents are very light, and the deployment monitoring is very good."
"The Ivanti Endpoint Manager allows us to perform rollouts, starting small with a group of devices and expanding to a larger set of devices, and it provides the ability to download updates while pinpointing which updates we need and don't need."
"Ivanti is a great product from a security perspective."
"The most beneficial aspect of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it is cost-friendly."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager has served us well over the years, supporting operating systems from Windows XP to Windows 10."
"The most beneficial aspect of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it is cost-friendly."
"The product saves time and money."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"The company provides great customer service."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
 

Cons

"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"Reporting needs improvement."
"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"They need to add more group policies. Intune currently does not have many group policies that you can deploy. Its reporting, which is very limited at the moment, also needs improvement. It will be great if they can add report customization. Its stability needs to be improved. Sometimes, when you register a device in Intune, it doesn't show up instantly on the engine portal on the admin side. They need to provide better support for complicated issues. They also have a long turnaround time."
"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."
"From an end-user perspective of Microsoft Intune, I haven't experienced any challenges since installation. However, some customers have reported experiencing slowness when using lower versions of the Android system."
"Customer service used to be better, but as we are nearing the end of the contract, the focus on investing in us as a customer has diminished. It is what one would expect in such a situation."
"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager is not user-friendly and feels outdated, which affects usability."
"When it comes to the reporting part, it needs to be improved. The executive reports and the deployment reports can be more improvised."
"Setting up the solution on-premises is difficult and needs improvement."
"The product's implementation process is in areas of concern where improvements are required."
"The reporting functionality and user interface could be improved. The options to generate reports should be more dynamic rather than static."
"For larger environments such as ours, the pricing for the Ivanti Endpoint Manager should be more competitive considering how much we pay every year, making it a constant challenge to get the product and license renewed."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
"The MDM, asset management, and software spend management are areas that could have more improvement in Ivanti Neurons for MDM."
"MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."
"UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated."
"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."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits."
"Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."
"Intune is moderately expensive. You can get the license bundled with Office 365 E3 or E5 licenses. The E5s are a bit expensive, but you get some cheaper solutions with Intune."
"The pricing is good because customers are not complaining about it."
"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"It is average. Some of the costs are quite high depending on what the customer currently uses, but overall, it is not bad. I would not say that I would not recommend Intune based on the cost. I definitely would, but they can definitely improve on the cost. So overall, its cost is not bad."
