AkashKamble - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Allows an ease of access to various systems and has a straightforward setup process
The product allows easy access to any system in case of any issues We cannot see the number of monitors working on the system simultaneously. It becomes complicated to switch from one monitor to another for different windows. The product's stability depends on the network's stability in our…

Easy to deploy, but scalability needs improvement
There are no specific challenges I faced while using the product. I haven't used the solution to support any AI-driven projects. In our company, we need to have remote access to our labs because if not, people have to move to the laboratory, and we will spend a lot of time working. I don't know the features of VNC Connect that improved our company's support capabilities. I rate the tool a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft integrated BitLocker and Active Directory into Intune, simplifying management."
"There are no complaints about the stability. It works one hundred percent of the time."
"Fortunately, now everything is streamlined into a single, unified platform."
"I like how Intune deploys the policies and makes them customizable. You can deploy it through Intune and forget about it."
"Intune's most valuable features are its device management capabilities, particularly its centralized integration with other Microsoft stack components."
"The ability to send configurations to our systems is valuable, particularly as we don't have a regular Windows AD server. Our current environment doesn't have a Windows AD, which limits our ability to push GPOs. However, this is where the solution can step in and help us push policies."
"Intune's unified endpoint management platform is invaluable."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"TeamViewer is useful for accessing data and systems remotely. Using this application, I can access other computers using an ID number that I provide to the users whose laptop I would like to access."
"Our computers are spread amongst six physical locations. TeamViewer reduces the need to travel to those offices to help staff."
"I find the mouse control and the ability to click for them very effective. I can move the mouse and click on buttons as if sitting at their computer. These are the basic features I use most often in the solution. There are tricker features that I don't use much because I don't need them frequently. Overall, it's a great tool for helping others with their computer issues without traveling to their location or another building."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the remote access connection. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"TeamViewer has a good interface."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the high performance and it is not complicated to use, neither for me nor for the one I'm helping."
"The most valuable feature has been the ability to give control to others for support purposes."
"I have been satisfied with TeamViewer overall."
"The product’s ease of use and security are valuable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
 

Cons

"The solution requires Mac support."
"There's quite a lot of development that they can do within their Intune dashboard. I think there are too many lines hyperlinked to move you around. Others, in contrast, give you a simple dashboard and an intuitive administrative walkthrough."
"Intune's areas for improvement revolve around security and certificate management."
"There were several bugs with stability."
"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"Not all technicians are knowledgeable of the Microsoft solution, so they have to work on that as well."
"Intune should improve the management of non-Microsoft devices. It would be better to manage Mac, Android, and other non-Microsoft operating system devices within the same Intune interface."
"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"I would like to see TeamViewer support multiple platforms."
"I have noticed that when I access another person's computer, sometimes the tab is visible, and sometimes it is not, which can be difficult."
"It needs to have proper authentication. I would like to see in-depth integration with Google and Microsoft products, for example. It would be nice to have a cell phone version as well."
"TeamViewer could be more secure."
"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."
"Sometimes we'll have a device in the field, and I'll click on remote control and it says "Can't authenticate." I'll double click in a different part of the TeamViewer interface and it'll say "Can't authenticate." Then I'll do it a third time and it connects. It's possible that it's just bad luck. It's also very possible that it's some bug within TeamViewer..."
"I would like to see something like a TeamViewer mobile application for iOS or possibly Android. I think this would be fantastic given how technology is evolving today. It would be beneficial to use it with your smartphone."
"TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
"Ease of access is a bit of a challenge."
"Improvements are required in the area of scalability since it is an aspect of the tool where there are shortcomings."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have."
"It is average. Some of the costs are quite high depending on what the customer currently uses, but overall, it is not bad. I would not say that I would not recommend Intune based on the cost. I definitely would, but they can definitely improve on the cost. So overall, its cost is not bad."
"It comes as a bundle, so you do not really know what the prices are. Microsoft does not break it down to the user cost for us. It is just bundled with our E5 license."
"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits."
"Pricing depends on the features. Microsoft offers special packages if there are more than 10,000 users, and you may be able to get a reduced rate."
"The pricing for Intune and the competitor products are all within the same range, there is no true advantage when it comes to cost."
"The purchase of the product was handled by someone else."
"Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses."
"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."
"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
"We're using the free version. We do not pay any licensing fees."
"TeamViewer's price is cheaper than some other similar solutions. We have licenses for our users."
"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."
"I am using the free version of TeamViewer. There is a subscription fee to use the premium features."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"The version of the solution we are using is free."
"I use the tool's free version."
"The tool is not cheap."
