We can consolidate our endpoints and security and manage it all from one place
Microsoft Intune consolidates our endpoint and security management tools into a single platform. We employ specific policies for autopilot devices tailored for global and US requirements, focusing on banking and government security. To address these concerns, we've implemented policies within the bank that restrict USB and Bluetooth access through the attack surface detection feature. This restricted app concept has been applied to autopilot laptops to enhance their security posture by blocking USB devices and preventing unauthorized research build-up. User experience is generally good when using open internet devices like 3G, 4G, or 5G, as banks often use restricted internet connections. Intune offers rapid benefits. Any policy, deployment, or change we implement is reflected within two to three minutes for all users. This is especially valuable for managing laptops. We can quickly implement a cleanup policy if user laptops are compromised or accessed without authorization. In the worst-case scenario of a computer being stolen, we can swiftly deploy a policy to secure the device's data within a minute. It offers rapid policy, deployment, and change implementation, with effects visible to users within minutes. Devices managed by SCCM can also benefit from Intune workloads and policies, providing a unified management approach. Intune and SCCM work together to address security concerns for hybrid Azure AD joined devices. Attack surface reduction policies can be implemented through either platform to protect devices from threats. Intune manages SCCM-enrolled and Intune-managed devices, offering comprehensive security and management capabilities. Intune has enhanced the productivity of our IT department. We can now establish Active Directory-related policies for public auto-enrollment devices in remote areas like Karachi and Islamabad. Not confined to specific cities, these devices can be managed through autopilot with AD-related policies created on Microsoft Intune. However, these devices are not always on-demand, so we track them using autopilot policies and create eighty policy replicas for each device. This approach is highly effective for managing our large-scale operations, as users often face challenges like requiring USB access while working remotely. We specifically tailor policies for our hundred audit users, who move frequently between locations.

It's helpful for automated boot process patching
We use MECM for intelligent logic automation. About 400,000 users are impacted by the solution, but there are around 20 admins who work with it directly. We have multiple automation tools and use the one that makes sense as needed We're designing PowerShell scripts to automate patching the boot…

Quotes from Members

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five."
"Microsoft Intune is included in the E5 license at no additional cost."
"The price could be better."
"We have the business premium licenses for the solution."
"The price is reasonable, but they should lower it a bit to make it more competitive. It's cheaper than AirWatch and other products, but I still feel like Microsoft can make a base version or with Exchange online or a la carte only Intune version which will be useful. A customer who doesn't want to go full-fledged E3 or E5 can take out or consume an Intune solution only for their purpose, and we want to target that customer."
"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."
"It's affordable. In comparison to the competitors, the price depends on what features you need from Intune, but it's affordable. There are no hidden costs, but there are some features that go for a premium price. Those are the add-ons for which you have to pay extra."
"I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall."
