Great features with very good function management
Our customers are pretty happy with the product. It uploads files, creates a secure virtual compartment for corporate applications. If it's on-prem, you can use it with mobile phones or tablets that don't have access to the internet using intranet with wireless access points. That's a big plus for government institutions as it enables the management of a large fleet of devices without any outside interference. That is the most significant advantage.

Consistently manages a large number of devices without downtime and offers quality support
In terms of areas where they could improve, if they provided solutions for every OEM, similar to what every other MDM platform is doing, that would be beneficial. For example, products such as InTune and MobileIron have no limitations. They support both iOS devices and Android devices. However, Samsung Knox specifically targets Samsung devices only. If they develop a solution that supports everything, along with the selling of devices and the product, they could achieve more business. Samsung Knox does not require any maintenance on my end.

Cons

"Lacks a factory reset feature."
"Samsung Knox needs to expand customer features across all devices, not just Samsung devices."
"The main drawback is that they need to expand this product beyond Samsung devices to include every device."
"The main drawback is that they need to expand this product beyond Samsung devices to include every device."
"We faced multiple issues when pushing configuration profiles and policies through Samsung Knox. The students were cracking the entire system."
"Features like private DNS would be very useful if pushed through Knox Manage."
