We performed a comparison between Microsoft Intune and Qualys VMDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in UEM (Unified Endpoint Management)."The dashboards, the security, and the customization capabilities work very well for us."
"Among the most valuable features are the Company Portal that is built into Intune, and the update rings so that we can manage what types of future updates the devices get."
"We can securely manage both company-owned devices and personal devices enrolled in our BYOD program."
"Technical support, in general, has been quite helpful."
"I like that it's very good and very simple. I found that we just needed to have a proper subscription for an Intune tenant, and from the subscription, if we have the right role assigned, like the global admin role or the owner role, we can use Microsoft cloud resources. With the help of that, we can do many things like setting up Microsoft Intune in the cloud to create our virtual machines. All these can be done, and the steps are very simple. I really liked it. I like features like Windows Auto-Enrollment. I like it very much because whenever you supply it to the end-user, it will be ready to use immediately. The end-user only needs to provide the user credentials, and then they are good to go. I also really like Cloud PC, which was recently launched on Azure."
"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."
"This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"Easy to use."
"It is a simple solution that makes scanning easy. You just give it a scheduled task, and it will do everything for you."
"Great web application security for scanning."
"The biggest benefit is from a security operations perspective, where we are able to drive our security posture upwards by remediating any discovered vulnerabilities."
"The reporting is fine."
"It is very easy to use and there are lots of options. We can usually easily go through it and all of the things we want to configure, and we can configure everything to our specifications very easily."
"I like Qualys because it is a very complete product, more so than Tenable."
"Qualys has a continuous endpoint monitoring feature for agent-based scanning. Once you deploy the solution, it monitors everything that is happening every 30 minutes. Then, if there are any vulnerabilities, they are reported."
"We also like the flexibility in their licensing."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"The technical support could be improved."
"There should be more support for macOS. Even though macOS is supported by Intune and Microsoft is working very hard to get more features into Intune to manage macOS, that's one thing they can give a lot more attention to."
"The UI also needs improvements because it is complex for end-users. We have had feedback from a few users in our organization who found the UI is not feasible for tracking and analyzing all the processes and monitoring all the devices."
"Microsoft Intune has a latency response time issue. The latency has room for improvement."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"An issue we have run into with Microsoft Endpoint Manager is that we cannot patch third-party products like Adobe and Chrome with it."
"The most important thing is reporting. They should improve their reporting. They should give a free hand to users. In SCCM, I can create my own reports. For example, in SCCM, I can create an inventory report for my PC or for all PCs, but in Intune, we don't have an option to create any report. Microsoft claims that Intune is a successor of SCCM, but SCCM is more powerful than Intune. So, they should develop Intune more and make it equivalent to SCCM. Then, their product will be great in the market."
"When tested on Zero day, there were errors."
"Qualys VM's vulnerability scan could be improved, especially the number of CVE numbers it can manage at a time."
"Could use additional security for the app."
"I would like to see this solution simplified to work more easily in a multi-cloud environment."
"The solution is a bit expensive if you do not have access to discounts."
"Improve the API speed."
"I would like to see more accuracy in detections, better reporting capabilities, and better dashboard download capabilities."
"The reporting and dashboards could improve in Qualys VM. However, they have improved since the previous versions."
