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 setup and effective support
I am with the company that sells LogMeIn Rescue. So, we engage with end customers, enterprise customers, manufacturing customers, BFSI customers, and healthcare customers. We try to find their use cases and provision our solution accordingly. For instance, if someone is in manufacturing and wants…

Able to boot into safe mode or standard mode remotely and reliable performance
I've only had to deal with it once. Because of the custom package we have, a white-label package, I can only think of one issue maybe six or seven years ago. I don't even remember what it was. At that time, I think they were pretty responsive. Very few companies offer phone support anymore; everyone's gone the way of email responses. I'm having that problem with CorelDRAW right now, and I'm waiting three weeks for a technician. So it's a good thing it's not important. Are the customer service and support good? For me, they're as good as anybody else, maybe not as good as some companies, but probably better than most. We deal with HP, IBM, HCL. Some companies only offer email support, and you have to wait for a response. I'm trying to remember the last time I interacted with Splashtop support. They do give you an answer. On a scale of one to ten, they're nine plus. You rarely have to use them, but I'm satisfied when you do.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is very useful in terms of Windows Information Protection."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"It is a very helpful solution."
"Cloud-based device management is the best feature for me as it impacts my company the most; it is much easier than the previous Configuration Manager or SCCM."
"I would say the biggest benefit is the single-pane view. There's no jumping around multiple UI's to do your overall management."
"The security posture is very good. It's very customizable."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"I like how Intune deploys the policies and makes them customizable. You can deploy it through Intune and forget about it."
"For people whose computers we maintain​, we can have those computers on file. Without having somebody to invite us, we can actually log in automatically, and that’s unlimited."
"​The initial setup is easy. If you want the desktop program, you just download and install it."
"We are able to quickly and easily get clients connected to our triage techs which allows us to resolve issues much more quickly, and with little stress."
"It is a great product; it will save you money and time, and it probably pays for itself in the first 60 days of use every year."
"The desktop sharing allows our clients to demonstrate the issue they are having, and then allows us to provide remediation directly."
"No issues with scalability. It is a fairly simple model. If I wanted to add five more, I would just buy five more people and licenses, apply the program to their computers, and give them their login."
"It works with different operating systems, I can connect to a PC or Mac."
"I have technicians all over, and not everybody is an expert in all areas. They are able to bring other expertise from different locations with the click of a mouse. They can invite in other technicians, so I can have most of the technicians collaborate on the same question, and that’s really amazing."
"Splashtop Remote Support is my main product, and I use it daily. Its main function is to control systems, which is essential remotely. Additionally, it has useful features such as chat functionality, file transfer, and the ability to add notes with information about a computer or server. Despite being simple software, it is very useful and valuable."
"The SOS Support is a most valuable feature, as we have remote access from our phone, there is no need to install the software, and we can do it on the cloud."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
"The ability to use mobile devices is helpful because we can support our clients from anywhere."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"With the extended license, it's easy to be remote."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
 

Cons

"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"
"Historically, Group Policy has simplified the management of various items, such as printer and drive mappings and while Intune offers workarounds, it lacks native support for these functionalities."
"The security aspect could be more effective. We are using other applications to manage network devices and groups, so if Microsoft Intune could improve in this area, especially on a network level, it would be a real advantage."
"Not all technicians are knowledgeable of the Microsoft solution, so they have to work on that as well."
"Microsoft Intune has a few areas where it could improve, such as faster policy and app deployment, a better user interface, stronger support for non-Windows devices, improved reporting and visibility, easier troubleshooting tools, and more transparent pricing."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"However, with Microsoft, it takes a lot longer, and I’m not getting quick resolutions. Sometimes, I find myself bouncing around between different support groups."
"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."
"Secondly, the product needs improvement on mobile interfaces because on mobile devices it doesn't perform very well."
"You should be able to remote on an iPhone like you remote on an Android. It is not the same experience. Unless you are very savvy on iOS, you are pretty much lost.​"
"The one big problem that I have with LogMeIn Rescue is, I use a Mac. All my technicians use PCs. I use a Mac, and the Mac agent crashes at least once a day. I have to stop it and start it again. To date, I don’t have a problem with people using PC. I think the Mac app that they have needs to be improved."
"Their ability to support mobile has been really problematic. I've seen other products that have done a better job in supporting mobile products."
"Support to remotely control more mobile devices' screens is desperately needed. It is sad to see how long this product has been out and how many phones are still not supported for, specifically, remote screen control."
"The app itself requires so many different updates and it requires us to rebuild it every time, and that's been a bit of a problem, over the last five years, in keeping it up to date for our clients."
"The one big problem that I have with LogMeIn Rescue is, I use a Mac, and the Mac agent crashes at least once a day."
"​The pricing, is a little on the high end but it's proven itself to be worth it for sure."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
"The integration features could be better."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The packages that Splashtop has tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you're ever going to buy an Office 365 environment, then pricing is reasonable given all that it does, but if you're not, then you might find the pricing expensive."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another."
"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."
"My team members bundled it together with their Microsoft solutions, including Microsoft 365 and related products."
"Intune comes with the licensing that is common for large organizations. However, Microsoft has recently released many add-ons that are very expensive, especially for large organizations or corporations."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."
"Look at the different plans they have. Do not pay for a plan you do not need.​"
"The only downside is pricing. I think each technician license is somewhere around $100 or $120 a month now. So if you have a lot of technicians, it can get expensive, for a small business."
"​The rescue model is licensed by user."
"The pricing is worth the value."
"The cost of LogMeIn is high... I went with another product that was going to give me savings of 50%. One technician tested it, he gave us the thumbs up. Then once we moved all my technicians to it, but it didn’t work... Trying to move from LogMeIn hindered our performance and productivity and it was not worth the savings."
"Right now, I'm using ScreenConnect, which is about $45 per technician. Unless I buy LogMeIn with a large license and commit for the long-term and prepay, I will have to pay almost $120 per user a month. It's almost three times the price over the normal price for ScreenConnect, which is very similar in regards to all of the features that LogMeIn Rescue can do."
"While LogMeIn Rescue is a great product and a leader in the industry, it's way pricey. Price is the most negative thing about LogMeIn Rescue."
"The pricing is a little on the higher side, though.​"
"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."
