"We have not experienced any bugs or glitches with this solution."
"The ability to send configurations to our systems is valuable, particularly as we don't have a regular Windows AD server. Our current environment doesn't have a Windows AD, which limits our ability to push GPOs. However, this is where the solution can step in and help us push policies."
"The best feature is that we don't need to worry about downtime. We don't need to worry about the network connections of our office or the virtual private network. Everything is being done through the internet. Using Intune Autopilot, we can configure and deploy everything to the devices."
"I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera"
"The solution has reduced the risk of security breaches by 30%."
"Can manage a large fleet of devices without any outside interference."
"It gives us the ability to manage our mobile fleets and push out updates quickly for all of our internal applications to keep the business running. We can push an app update out in minutes..."
"Also, although they're Apple products, we don't use the Find My iPhone feature because that would require us to use so many fake numbers or come up with a list of numbers. SOTI has been super-helpful in helping us track where an iPad is and knowing that we can remote-access it."
"The other one would be just how easy it is to deploy applications."
"We use the Lockdown Kiosk Mode feature on all of our devices. We use that so that the operators can't change any settings in the background, and so that the applications they run are immediately available to them. It's a good feature."
"It has a user-friendly menu that helps manage special purpose devices for security."
"The most valuable feature is the remote support because there are plants here where IT staff is not present. We can use it to provide support remotely."
"The most valuable features are visibility and remote access."
"The installation is very straightforward."
"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"The security features should be improved."
"The main disadvantage seen today is regarding Linux clients. We have a lot of development resources that have Linux on their clients, and we can't manage them on the same platform, as we do with other clients such as macOS and Windows. So, it should have support for Linux clients. It should also have better support for macOS."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"We only have major classifications for iOS and Android, but there are different brands that have different cycles of updates. If they can fine-tune it to make it more brand-specific, that would be even better."
"I expect Microsoft Intune to have more features in the cloud because there are two major functionalities that we need to be added. This is software metering and license management. These functionalities, for now, must be on-premise. For this purpose, we have set up a SQL Server and I hope that in near future this option will be in the cloud in Microsoft Intune."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"The configuration could be better by consolidating options and making it simpler."
"Lacks a factory reset feature."
"If the interface was a little bit more intuitive, more easily allowed me to get to where I want to be, that would be a little bit nicer, as far as the file sync goes."
"I have used Microsoft Intune but it is more complicated than SOTI MobiControl."
"In the next release, they should make it easier to migrate."
"SOTI MobiControl could improve by being more user-friendly."
"I would like to see some SMS integration so people can send data directly from a mobile phone through SMS when there's no internet."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the ability to customize devices and choosing what information goes onto them."
"The scalability is horizontal, not vertical. One machine has to have all the accounts. That's one of the issues that we have found with scalability: You always have to keep the same machine. If you want to add a second machine, you need to split the account and that removes flexibility of management."
"I wish that I had some more tutorials and educational resources on how to use the product."
