Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance
One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

Remote access has cut critical issue resolution time and supports faster production troubleshooting
Perhaps on the UI side of TeamViewer because we are connecting to different remote desktop connections or remote server connections. Whenever we are working on one of the production issues and we open multiple connections, it is very hectic or confusing to jump from one server to another server. Perhaps on the UI side, if they can improve something related to the view sessions or which session is connected to which remote server, that would be helpful. Perhaps something related to the authentication because it should have a proper authentication mechanism. Every developer should not access TeamViewer or the remote desktop by using TeamViewer. We always have a proper authentication or multifactor authentication mechanism in place, so only those on on-call support or P1 support at that time can access the remote server, but not anyone else. I chose nine out of 10 because sometimes we face the session timeout issue. Suppose during the production support, we connect to one of the remote servers, and if it is idle for approximately 10 or 15 minutes, the session timeout happens. We have to follow the same authentication mechanism to connect to the remote server again. During the session timeout, it delays our process or the troubleshooting steps, which is the reason I have given nine out of 10 instead of 10.

Great for hybrid workers, minimizes latency and delivers great performance
We haven't encountered major issues with the solution. We are really happy that we decided to purchase Venn Software, although they are quite new. The initial setup is seamless. It's not overly complex. In our experience, for the most part, the solution is reliable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches. That said, the performance could be a bit better. We'd like to see a bit more done with the deployment capabilities. The solution needs to offer better local or regional support to cater to offshore users.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"Given all of the factors and things to consider, including features and cost, I would say that Intune has a slight edge over competing products."
"Intune helps the organization manage access to its internal apps, data, and resources."
"The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"Microsoft Intune is brilliant for scalability and is excellent for scaling purposes."
"It is very stable and scalable because this is a cloud-only solution."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The product and platform work well. That is why I have stay with them so long. The stability has typically been good."
"I’d advise users to go for it and try it out as it saves time for IT, allowing them to remote in from wherever they are so they don’t have to come to you and it makes troubleshooting simple."
"It is easy to use and has a pretty good UI."
"Just being able to dial in on a clients server is all I need, and it reconnects automatically when there are connection issues."
"TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization by giving us the ability to provide clients with a good experience and to fix bugs quickly while accessing their computers."
"Use this product. It is so easy to use and it makes students and staff happy."
"From a cost perspective, it's a great buy."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote control a computer system. Overall it is a complete solution."
"It allows us to improve our security and prevent company files and data leaks."
"We don't need to go to the physical office, and it only requires minimal supervision or assistance from our IT Team."
"Since the software is launched directly from the computer, not remotely delivered, it has minimized latency and response time."
 

Cons

"I would like the ability to install the agent on devices from suppliers, which would enable us to implement a zero-trust strategy for guest devices."
"Most of the customers in the business do not use Intune because it doesn't support that much policy for Android."
"The challenge we experience is with Mac management. We find Intune not capable enough to handle Mac devices, configurations, or operating system deployments."
"Microsoft support was not very responsive, and it took approximately one and a half months to get on a call to clear what the problem was."
"The solution's app deployment needs to be improved."
"For macOS devices, we use the Jamf portal. I understand that the Jamf portal and server are more secure than Microsoft Intune for macOS."
"The user interface should be more user-friendly, as it can sometimes be challenging to navigate. Microsoft often relocates features, making it difficult to consistently find what I need."
"Microsoft documentation is a bit hard to get around, so having more control over devices would be good."
"Sometimes it lags."
"The only thing I can think of is a quick-deploy / auto-installer for the end users."
"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."
"By comparison, TeamViewer is a complete mess; the way they do it is a total nightmare, and it does not work well."
"There are some issues with the stability of TeamViewer."
"There is a limit on the number of people who can attend a meeting. Currently, I use Zoom for our pre-construction meetings because I can have up to 25 people."
"Sometimes it gives problems, with the button not working, and I was unable to log in."
"It should have ability to display notes in the computer list."
"Currently, Venn only uses two platforms/applications: Windows and Mac. It would be great if they could also add more platforms since some BYOD employees might be using an application other than Windows or Mac - for example, Linux."
"We'd like to see a bit more done with the deployment capabilities."
"It would be better to have the back end more efficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate Intune five out of 10 for pricing. It's expensive."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"Microsoft Intune is reasonably priced for large organizations that already have Microsoft Enterprise licenses, but it is less affordable for smaller businesses."
"It's monthly for us, but it's built into the license cost that we pay our IT each month. It's maybe 129 Kroner per head, which translates to £10. There are some additional costs. Our IT had to set up and configure their own server, so there is an extra cost for that, but I'm not sure what that costs."
"Microsoft Intune is pretty reasonable. We have difficulty with Azure, which is probably why we have not put many assets in Azure. Everything we put there is very expensive."
"Intune's pricing is reasonable considering its benefits and the high costs it helps avoid."
"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."
"It is cheap, but as compared to Google, it is costly. Google is cheaper, but quality-wise, Microsoft Intune is better."
"It does what I need it to do but I think it's expensive. It wasn't easy for me to get approval from the company to get it... It's costing us about $700 a year, per license."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"The price of the license could be less expensive."
"The cost is in the thousands of dollars per year."
"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."
"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."
"The cost of the licenses depends on how you buy them. They just had a buy one get one free deal going, and they do that every once in a while. Where you buy one license, and they will give you the second one free, or you can try to get discounts. Most of our licenses that we have we tried to do something like that just to save some money."
