Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Based on my experience, I find Intune very flexible for managing Windows devices. We can use scripting, and we can make use of the self-service portal or the company portal to publish some of the applications for Windows.""Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment.""If the product works, remote access will be a benefit. To this point we have not had reason to have confidence in achieving that access.""The solution is easy to use and it has good performance.""Intune provides full visibility into all active mobile device users. If their devices are noncompliant with our security policies, I have the flexibility to update them remotely.""The biggest benefits of Intune are the ability to push changes and the added security. When we moved forward with Defender, we onboarded all those machines automatically. That helps dramatically. For a while, we were left with machines that weren't protected. We could see where people had done things they shouldn't have done, and Defender saved our skins a few times. It didn't happen a lot, but it happened enough that it made us glad we made that decision.""We have not experienced any bugs or glitches with this solution.""It works pretty well for us."

"Remote desktop sharing is one valuable feature of the solution.""This product is very simple to use and you can connect whether you are behind a firewall or not.""The most valuable feature of TeamViewer Tensor is the remote access."

Cons
"The configuration and pricing can be improved.""It would be great to see on-premises mailboxes and for the solution to have geofencing capabilities.""Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved.""Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance.""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.""There is improvement needed in integrating with the installed Office solutions versions, such as Office 2019. The Office 365 integrates without a problem.""The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded.""They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular. Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants."

More Microsoft Intune Cons →

"The solution could include more AI (Artificial Intelligence).""Having the ability to create subgroups and delegate permissions to the group members would be a helpful addition.""The SSO feature of the solution may sometimes not function perfectly…Pricing might be improved for TeamViewer Tensor."

  • "The pricing is a little bit on the higher side."

    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."
