Centralized endpoint security has improved and supports hybrid work and BYOD policies
Regarding what I dislike about Microsoft Intune and its downsides, I would say that more Mac controls are needed because we have limited Mac and Linux control. When comparing controls and policies between Windows, Mac, and Linux, Windows has almost everything you can think of, while Mac and Linux have limited types of control. You cannot implement certain things on Mac and Linux that you can on Windows. The limited controls are a major issue. Additionally, if Microsoft could find a way to embed servers into Microsoft Intune, that would be beneficial. Microsoft Intune is not really designed for servers or Windows servers. It is more tailored towards Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems. Windows servers are not fully supported. Enterprise organizations usually have both servers and endpoints, which are users' workstations. For servers, most people look for other solutions such as SCCM, which is Configuration Manager. However, SCCM is what Microsoft Intune is trying to replace. Both SCCM and Microsoft Intune belong to Microsoft. Microsoft is trying to transition organizations into Microsoft Intune, the native cloud solution. However, because this update is still in process, servers are not fully compatible with Microsoft Intune and cannot be managed by it. The current policy that has emerged from issues with clients is what they call co-management, which is relatively new, and I do not know if adoption is significant. Many legacy or older customers who have been using these products for decades still have SCCM. When it is time for them to manage their Windows devices, they use what is called cloud attach. Cloud attach is a term whereby your SCCM is connected to your Microsoft Intune. Most people do not know about it, but I have deployed it for several organizations. Cloud attach and co-management work together so that your device is in SCCM, but some policies are pushed from Microsoft Intune. It is like two different solutions working hand in hand. That is what they call co-management. Microsoft Intune does not bring all of your endpoint and security management tools into one place, which is the goal and how it should be. However, as I mentioned, servers are not included. If we talk about end users, Microsoft Intune does bring all your devices together. In a typical enterprise environment, you have end users with workstations, laptops, company-issued phones, and bring your own devices. You can create policies for all of these. However, for the backend, your servers do not have much coverage. Servers are not really covered by Microsoft Intune in that way.

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 feature that we need occasionally but is really important is the ability to remotely wipe a device, control it, and perform similar functions."
"The cloud base is perfect for me."
"Microsoft Intune is a great product, and you should use it."
"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."
"One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Intune is the detection and remediation script capability."
"The best feature in Microsoft Intune is zero touch deployment, which allows me to automate many tasks compared to manually installing Windows and applications one by one, making it easier to enroll devices with Autopilot and pre-deploy applications."
"Microsoft Intune is a very strong and modern endpoint management solution, especially for organizations moving towards cloud and hybrid environments."
"The ability to (somewhat) manage full Windows 10 computers including EXE-based or MSI-based application deployments using Azure Active Directory as Identity."
"Being able to reboot computers into safe mode, when needed. That has come in handy in regards to IT troubleshooting."
"The desktop sharing allows our clients to demonstrate the issue they are having, and then allows us to provide remediation directly."
"There’s something called the dial-in so for people that use us all the time, we can have an icon on their screen and they can click that icon and we connect to them."
"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 multiple connect methods really help with users who are not tech savvy or knowledgeable about their own computers."
"I tried different software out there and LogMeIn Rescue has the best compatibility. Something else might work, but you have conflict with so many networks. LogMeIn has the best ratio of almost 99% connection. Whereas, with some other software, you are lucky if you get 80%."
"I think it’s the best product out there, and I tried to get off LogMeIn Rescue because of cost, but doing that hindered our performance and productivity and it was not worth the savings, so we quickly went back to LogMeIn after three months."
"From my perspective and my experience, LogMeIn is already at a 10 out of 10; everything else that I would like is just icing on the cake, it really is fluff."
"The ability to use mobile devices is helpful because we can support our clients from anywhere."
"The initial setup is simple."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"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."
"The solution is very fast."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"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."
 

Cons

"Intune has limited integration with non-Microsoft solutions."
"In terms of the admin experience, it is straightforward, but the Windows enrollment experience could be improved. Sometimes, for enrollment, we have to reset devices and re-enroll them. Just configuring Windows, Azure, or Active Directory doesn't enroll the devices. We need easy enrollment for Windows."
"The security features should be improved."
"Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune."
"Yes, there are a couple of issues with stability."
"The reports aren't complete, and it's not easy to build custom reports."
"We do not utilize Microsoft customer service and technical support since it is generally a waste of time."
"Better reporting capabilities, stronger Mac OS management, faster policy synchronization, and easier troubleshooting are needed."
"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 pricing, is a little on the high end but it's proven itself to be worth it for sure."
"Nothing's perfect but I think it's really a great tool just the way it is. The suggestion that I made to them at their user advisory board is that they combine the two products, Rescue and Central, into one because you really should have both. A bunch of the other people in that meeting very much liked that."
"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."
"​The interface is not ​user-friendly. It looks a little outdated.​ I think the options are there. I think just the layout needs improvement.​"
"They need to improve their technical support."
"I would like to see a mobile client that would work on an iPad, so I do not always have to be on a PC or a full-blown Mac operating system."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"The integration features could be better."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is very reasonable."
"Existing E5 license holders for M365, Intune, and Azure, receive a free license."
"The pricing is not cheap, especially with inflation. They've had to increase their prices. It's not excessive, but alright."
"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"
"I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall."
"It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved. It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs."
"It is not expensive."
"I liked the tool's pricing until P2 came into effect. I am unsure about the current value versus the cost of the new licensing model."
"Pricing is reasonable and easily offsets other costs, while resolving issues in a much quicker timeframe."
"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."
"The pricing is worth the value."
"​The rescue model is licensed by user."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"It is ​on the medium to high side. For us, it is worth it. For the amount of time they save us, it pretty much pays for itself.​"
"It's definitely worth the value."
"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."
