Centralized device management has transformed security and streamlined remote provisioning

One area where Microsoft Intune can improve is the user interface. Sometimes the portal feels a bit complex and not very intuitive, especially for new users, and it can take time to find specific settings. Another point is troubleshooting. While logs are available, the diagnostic policies and sync issues can still be time-consuming and not very straightforward. I also feel that reporting could be more detailed and customizable. The built-in reports are helpful, but for deeper insights, I often need to rely on additional tools. Overall, it is a strong solution, but improving usability and troubleshooting experience would make it even better. While Microsoft Intune works very well within the Microsoft ecosystem, the integration of some third-party tools could be smoother and require less customization. Support is another area that could improve, as sometimes response times can be slow, and resolving complex issues may take longer than expected. In terms of features, I think more advanced automation and built-in remediation options would be helpful since common issues can be fixed automatically without manual intervention.

Pricing Specialist at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

Useful inventory tool, scalable, and initial installation straightforward

My advice to those getting started with Snow Device Manager would be to set up the support starting with the full package because most people normally only get the inventory section. It can be complicated in the beginning when you first start with the solution, we did not have support and it would have been a benefit to have. There are different license models and we could not find a lot of information about them. They have a decent library and we can find data on the different topics such as some types of license models. However, you have to be a paid member to have access. I rate Snow Device Manager a ten out of ten.

Trainer/Consultant at Koenig Solutions Pvt. Ltd.

Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement

The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There are so many features, but Windows Autopilot is one of the features that are very valuable for most customers."

"It's not working perfectly, but Microsoft's Autopilot offers great visibility into automated deployment solutions."

"The best features in Microsoft Intune include secure authentication, which I find very favorable, and the fact that we can remotely push applications."

"This improved control and visibility has helped my organization by reducing risks, saving time, and making compliance easier."

"We have not had any issues with the scalability."

"The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."

"I like how Intune brings everything into one place. For example, you can set up conditional access to applications and devices inside Intune. I also like the segregation inside the Intune devices. You can segregate them by Windows, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Android. You can sort it by platform, so you don't need to go into the devices section."

"The ability to (somewhat) manage full Windows 10 computers including EXE-based or MSI-based application deployments using Azure Active Directory as Identity."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"The inventory tool is the most valuable. We have some clients that would only do the entitlements section and search for contracts using Excel sheets. The inventory tool is a lot easier for the managing of licenses, installations, and devices on the tools is a huge benefit."

"The inventory tool is a lot easier for the managing of licenses, installations, and devices on the tools is a huge benefit."

"This product enables us to replace all existing stores PDA running windows CE with iPod touch."

"The remote management and location capabilities are good."

"From a remote management perspective, I like the management and the inventory."

"The product has fully automated features that help people do tasks easily."

"The BYOD management console has a smooth application performance, and whenever I choose an application, template, or report, it is easy to use."

"The solution has very good documentation."

"This is a very stable product, and we haven't had any problems with it, including after any updates that were made."

"If an outside person tries to track or hack information, it is not possible without us being notified."

More Workspace ONE UEM pros

Cons

"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."

"Reporting and troubleshooting for the application deployment could be better. It's very difficult to understand."

"Microsoft Intune could be improved by making the UI more intuitive, enhancing reporting and analytics for better visibility, simplifying troubleshooting and error messaging, and improving performance and policy sync speed in larger environments."

"Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune."

"Microsoft Intune could be faster with client to server communication. Whenever I push something, it takes time; sometimes it takes more than one hour to deploy on the Windows side."

"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."

"Microsoft Intune lags market leaders, such as Apperian, in its MAM capabilities."

"Microsoft Intune has potential for improvement; I would like to see a lot more customization in the reporting tools."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"There are some licensing models that could be able to be managed in Snow Device Manager that are not, such as token-based models. This would be a benefit since the growth of blockchains."

"There are some licensing models that could be able to be managed in Snow Device Manager that are not, such as token-based models."

"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more."

"Scalability is a problem because we have a service provider who is supposed to maintain the backend with patching."

"There are other solutions that might be better for certain use cases. This is not an all-purpose solution."

"In terms of the inventory management side, as in the invoice management, the stock management and the entire inventory of an organization is lagging a bit in comparison to Blackberry or other EMM solutions."

"Our customers are concerned about the costs. The solution is higher than they want it to be."

"I would like to see technology expense management integrated into the next release. This feature would allow us to manage expenses across various workloads and services, including cloud environments and computing resources."

"Cost of licensing is quite high."

"From an identity perspective, there is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to integration with other solutions. I would say it needs more capabilities in terms of direct integrations, including cloud identity solution integrations."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."

"Most of our clients come to us with licensing already in place. On average, it costs $6 per device per month to add Intune to an Office 365 subscription, but I am not sure."

"Intune comes with the licensing that is common for large organizations. However, Microsoft has recently released many add-ons that are very expensive, especially for large organizations or corporations."

"All security solutions worldwide are expensive. Microsoft has allowed a small scale of features within Microsoft Intune for cost-efficient solutions. If you want the full suite, you need to invest more to gain better security features."

"I have no comment on pricing of the solution."

"Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have."

"It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there."

"We work in the charity sector, so a lot of our clients get Microsoft Premium licenses or Business Premium for free. They get ten licenses free, and a lot of our clients do not have more than ten staff members. They are getting the tool for free, so its cost is not an issue."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

Information not available

"The cost is a little bit high."

"All licenses from VMware are only yearly. They start with a yearly license and look for a three-year commitment and yearly PO."

"Our customers are concerned about the costs. The solution is higher than they want it to be."

"For most of the projects, we use the standard license but for complex ones, we use the older type of processes, integrations, and licenses inside the solution."

"A person should pay towards the licensing costs of VMware Identity Manager on a yearly or monthly basis, but government and public sector units cannot for a perpetual licensing model."

"My guess is that its licensing was yearly. There was probably no fee in addition to the standard licensing fee."

"I think that the price is reasonable."

"For big users, it's around $500."
