Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera""Autopilot is the most valuable feature.""The standout features of Intune are its excellent mobile device management and highly effective application management capabilities.""This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions.""Internet-based access with security is what I have found to be most valuable. It is also a stable and scalable solution.""Intune's unified endpoint management platform is invaluable.""Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies.""One of the best features is Windows Autopilot because if you change any of your devices, whatever security policies and compliance policies that applied can be easily migrated to the new devices. Windows Autopilot gives you that flexibility."

More Microsoft Intune Pros →

"The company provides great customer service.""The user interface is user-friendly.""It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use.""The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration.""The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."

More Ivanti Neurons for MDM Pros →

"Microsoft Mobility and EMS include Intune for Mobility, which provides mobile device management and mobile application management. With mobile device management, you can control the entire device in an organization.""The solution offers excellent documentation that is easily available online.""A good feature that is present is MAM or Mobile Application Management. We can deploy this feature on the device, which is not managed by the organization. If I apply some security configuration on a personal device, the user would be really disappointed. What we do instead is that we give all access to the applications related to corporate and ask the users to use the application. We secure the application by putting the security features on the applications and not on the users' devices. This way, the users are happy, and we also meet our company's compliance standards. Then, everyone is happy.""Integration between our departments has been the most valuable.""You can scale the solution up or down by department.""The solution is very good at securing files. For example, if I forward a secure document, it's blocked from others, as I can send it with restrictions in relation to who can open it.""The product is centralized and we can use it for security purposes.""The product is a unified solution and you don't require to purchase tools from different vendors. The system analyzes behavior and activity and takes steps for protection."

Cons
"Sometimes, customers compare it with AirWatch, but the concept of Intune is different from other solutions. It's an application management app. It gets a bit difficult to explain it to customers, but it's not a product limitation. It takes a presale document or presentation to explain it to customers.""Having a dedicated configuration server that assists in modifying the configuration service, and creating personalized structures, interfaces, and web services could enhance usability.""There needs to be more support for Mac operating systems.""I would like to see easier pushdowns. Currently, we have to package our own software and then push it. Intune can make that way easier and integrate applications, such as Zoom and Adobe Acrobat, that are used by a lot of enterprise or corporate organizations.""In the past, I raised some tickets for the enhancement feature, which was missing in Intune.""The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments.""I wanted to check if there is any provision at the Intune level to restrict certain things, such as a website, but unfortunately, that feature is available only in Microsoft Defender. Intune has web filtering capabilities, but they are only useful for protection from malicious websites, whereas we would like to be able to restrict a website. For example, YouTube is a clean website. No one would identify it as a malicious website, but if we want to stop the end-users from going to that website, we have to go for another product, such as Microsoft Defender or another third-party proxy solution. It would be great if this capability is included in Intune.""The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."

More Microsoft Intune Cons →

"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use.""UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated.""We would like the initial setup to be simpler.""The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that.""MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."

More Ivanti Neurons for MDM Cons →

"The auditing and reporting could be updated and upgraded. I would like to see light applications because they consume a lot of the device's memory at present.""Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security is expensive.""The licensing can be messy at times.""We did the deployment with the help of Microsoft's consultants. But sometimes, we found it difficult to educate the application developers to integrate.""Technical support could be improved. Sometimes they use a third party that's not so knowledgeable in the product and that can slow down things a bit.""There are certain shortcomings in the licensing model of the product where improvements are required.""Its performance needs enhancement.""The licensing is quite expensive."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Microsoft Intune stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its ability to secure all devices under its management and the flexibility that the solution offers its users.

    A computing services manager notes, "Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."

    The head of IT engineering at a financial services company writes, "The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types: we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager (MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company details on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."
