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.

Able to boot into safe mode or standard mode remotely and reliable performance
I've only had to deal with it once. Because of the custom package we have, a white-label package, I can only think of one issue maybe six or seven years ago. I don't even remember what it was. At that time, I think they were pretty responsive. Very few companies offer phone support anymore; everyone's gone the way of email responses. I'm having that problem with CorelDRAW right now, and I'm waiting three weeks for a technician. So it's a good thing it's not important. Are the customer service and support good? For me, they're as good as anybody else, maybe not as good as some companies, but probably better than most. We deal with HP, IBM, HCL. Some companies only offer email support, and you have to wait for a response. I'm trying to remember the last time I interacted with Splashtop support. They do give you an answer. On a scale of one to ten, they're nine plus. You rarely have to use them, but I'm satisfied when you do.

Reliable remote access has improved secure collaboration and streamlined daily approvals
The best features TeamViewer Business offers in my opinion are collaboration, templates, a high level of security, and session recording. Collaboration allows me to collaborate remotely with my team members. Besides reconnecting automatically, it provides a high level of security, protecting from cyber attacks and aids in providing assurance in regulated environments through two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption features. It also allows recording live sessions, which can be replayed as needed for future reference. TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as collaboration has enhanced, especially remote collaboration by 60 to 70 percent. I have been able to collaborate with clients and other team members seamlessly. Enhanced workflow efficiency includes faster approvals and a lowered risk of data loss, misuse, and leak through robust features like two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. It also facilitates compliance using documentation and auditing through recordings and logs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Intune makes it possible for us to reach all the endpoints and have them protected at all times."
"It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails."
"We can implement a MAM policy in this Intune and protect the device through mobile application development without touching it. The interface is easy to use and understand."
"The user experience of Microsoft Intune is very friendly and the interface is very good."
"It is a very stable and scalable cloud-only solution."
"The most important thing for me is the autopilot feature."
"The synchronization of Intune with other Microsoft solutions is a valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"The initial setup is simple."
"Splashtop Remote Support is my main product, and I use it daily. Its main function is to control systems, which is essential remotely. Additionally, it has useful features such as chat functionality, file transfer, and the ability to add notes with information about a computer or server. Despite being simple software, it is very useful and valuable."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"The solution is very fast."
"The SOS Support is a most valuable feature, as we have remote access from our phone, there is no need to install the software, and we can do it on the cloud."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
"The ability to use mobile devices is helpful because we can support our clients from anywhere."
"There are only two of us in the core of the company and we manage about 500 machines based in the UK, mainland Europe, US, Hong Kong, China and South Africa."
"Ever since we have been using TeamViewer Business, because of how quick it is to connect to a user across the globe, we have been able to close tickets rapidly."
"The new two-factor authentication is a very good addition to security."
"TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization by helping us resolve critical issues within the four-hour SLA contracts we have with clients, avoiding penalties associated with delays."
"The product is easy to install."
"TeamViewer has positively impacted my organization because it has helped us in saving a lot of time, as the process of conveying instructions is much simpler now, and we are able to provide better online training to our new staff."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote into another device."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ease of connecting to remote computers; I do not need a lot of information about their computers to connect, a nontechnical person can give me the information needed for me to connect, and the solution does not gather other system information about the host or client's systems as other solutions might, such as AnyDesk."
 

Cons

"There were several bugs with stability."
"It is not very stable. Sometimes, it works instantly, and sometimes, something goes wrong, and you get stuck there."
"The security aspect could be more effective. We are using other applications to manage network devices and groups, so if Microsoft Intune could improve in this area, especially on a network level, it would be a real advantage."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see some kind of analytics report."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see some kind of analytics report."
"Intune's reporting and logging could be improved. When troubleshooting, it's difficult to collect the logs and determine what's happening. If I want to filter out the compliant devices, I can see it from the logs, but I would like the option to drill down further."
"An issue we have run into with Microsoft Endpoint Manager is that we cannot patch third-party products like Adobe and Chrome with it."
"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 packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The packages that Splashtop has tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The integration features could be better."
"The integration features could be better."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
"Even now, we have customers who will not allow us to connect to them because of security sensitivity, e.g., military departments for clients."
"I'm not sure if they provide good quality audio alongside screensharing."
"We would like to have an option to create subgroups, where only members of the subgroup have access to the other members."
"We access the solution through a VPN, which improves our security. However, earlier this year, around the beginning of March, a CVE in the TeamViewer client allowed remote connections to other network systems, which was concerning. You could have unintentionally gained admin rights if you didn't update TeamViewer promptly. It's crucial to always keep it updated to prevent such issues. The tool should consider implementing two-factor authentication to improve such security holes. It should also integrate good security updates, which should be implemented automatically."
"ITBrain should be embedded in the product and not an expensive add-on."
"The product can sometimes crash."
"By comparison, TeamViewer is a complete mess; the way they do it is a total nightmare, and it does not work well."
"The business interface is clunky and not well-documented."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"We work with the subscription rather than a server license. I think it's economical this way because we don't have to have a server license for that, and I think that works in our favor."
"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits."
"Existing E5 license holders for M365, Intune, and Azure, receive a free license."
"They have categorized the licenses according to the size of the business. So, if it's a smaller organization, we can choose the license accordingly. If it's a big organization, then we can choose accordingly. Everything is clearly mentioned, and we can decide. It's suitable for all kinds of infrastructure, and that's very goo"
"Microsoft Intune costs about $7 per user per month, which is somewhat on the pricier end. That said, it's a reliable product, so it's fair."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
"I rate pricing a ten on a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high. There are no additional costs attached to the licensing of the solution."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"The cost is in the thousands of dollars per year."
"We have a corporate license. The maximum amount number of users changes based on the amount you pay. E.g., with our license, there is a maximum amount of users who can use the solution at the same time (10 users)."
"We are not using the solution for commercial use therefore it is free to use."
"TeamViewer offers a free version to try. Download and give it a shot. See what it's like and if you like it, then buy the license for it."
"...it will cost you $1,500 to $1,600 a year, but when I think of how much work I do through TeamViewer..."
