Microsoft Intune Reviews

The primary use case of Microsoft Intune is for patch management and app deployment.

Microsoft Intune is deployed in a hybrid environment and we use Atel cloud.

I can see that the patch management process is much improved with the bundled patch management option available in Microsoft Intune compared to the KPI deployment required by the other deployment solutions.

Deploying an app can be a complex process due to dependencies. For example, I have a package with three files that need to run, but one of them has a dependency on another one. This can be challenging to manage with the Intune app deployment and has room for improvement.

I have been using the solution for one month.

We have premium technical support from Microsoft.

We currently also use BigFix.

We have not yet implemented the solution but the app deployment is a bit complex.

When we add a device to the Azure domain, the activation process for Intune is simple and straightforward with no added complexity.

We partnered with Microsoft to help us implement the solution in our environment.

Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages. GMF can be more expensive.

We evaluated Jamf Pro and will be rolling it out for Apple devices.

I give the solution a seven out of ten.

As of now, we deployed the solution onto 10,000 devices and when completed it will be 30,000 devices. The solution is used in multiple departments in multiple geographical locations.

Microsoft Intune is a Windows solution, and organizations can take advantage of its features. However, I would not recommend using iOS devices with Microsoft Intune as it is suited for Windows only.

Based on my experience, I would recommend Microsoft Intune to organizations looking for management of a large number of devices and enterprise environments. 

I would suggest Microsoft Intune because it is a better platform since it can handle Windows, iOS, and other Linux systems. If an organization is looking to manage only Apple devices, I would prefer Jamf, as it is one of the better tools for handling Apple devices.

I haven't had any limitations or performance issues with Microsoft Intune since it has been a cloud-based tool. We haven't experienced many issues with performance as it is always up and running.

In my additional experience with Microsoft Intune, although it is a cloud environment, it still has some flaws. Microsoft might be aware that it cannot handle much load capacity, such as multiple deployments at the same time. While these deployments are possible, there will be some load balancing issues. The load handling experiences slow network fluctuations.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback about Microsoft Intune. On a scale of one to ten, I rate Microsoft Intune eight out of ten.

I use it for deploying software and managing devices.

Microsoft Intune brings all of our endpoint and security management tools into one place. I can log into only one console and jump from one system to the other system seamlessly.

It is easy. When I hand out a new device to new users, I ask them to enter their email address and password. They just need to give the device 15 to 20 minutes, and it is done. Users can then start working on their devices.

It just works. I do not have to run after the software to see if it is the latest update. It just runs. It is setup-and-forget.

Microsoft Intune makes it easy to secure hybrid work and protect data on company and BYO devices. Once you have set up all the rules, it just works. You cannot mix personal data with company-related data. Also, no data can be extracted from the business aspect to the personal one.

Microsoft Intune's Endpoint Privilege Management feature enables us to enforce the least privileged access. For me, it is a big advantage to only have the rights I need and not the ones I do not need. For every specific case, I just request the required role for it, and afterward, I deactivate the role. From the security aspect, it is at a very high level.

It helps reduce data loss. It helps with data loss prevention. We also use multifactor authentication and block unknown devices and unknown users. Any external attacks are blocked via a lot of mechanisms. We can use our privileged roles only inside a closed network and with PKI-based authentication.

Microsoft Intune has affected the IT productivity in our organization in a positive way.

It is very important for us that its capabilities are integrated with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security for both cloud and co-managed devices. This feature was one of the major things when we started digitalization.

The ability to work from all over the planet is valuable. You just need a functioning and working Internet connection. You can enroll devices by binding the hash values in Intune. You can enroll them from wherever the person is. It makes no difference if he is sitting at home or office or is on vacation.

They are always rolling out updates. You get more and more possibilities to enroll devices and configure their settings and security. I have confidence in the setup they have provided so far. I, as such, do not have any specific inputs or needs. However, there is always room for improvement when it comes to scalability.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for almost six years. I am always using the latest version. It is a cloud platform, and it is updated almost every month with new features.

I would rate it an eight out of ten for scalability. There is always room for improvement when it comes to scalability.

Their technical support is great. We always get an answer from Microsoft.

Positive

We were using Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. We did not use any other vendor.

Using Microsoft Intune did not help us consolidate vendors. Our strategy is to not mix up too many different vendors and have just one. The best thing is that if you want to use Microsoft Azure and Intune, you can use the features out of the box. You do not need big modifications. You can take the default and build everything around your needs, and it will work.

This is the platform for every enterprise. It is easy to manage all devices such as Windows, iOS, and macOS in one place. You can also manage Android devices.

Overall, I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten because there is always room for more modifications and improvements.

Our organization utilizes Microsoft Intune to safeguard company data on employee laptops and cell phones that might be used for remote work.

We use Microsoft Intune to ensure compliance on devices, both on and off-site. Intune enforces settings like requiring a screen lock and allows us to remotely wipe lost devices to protect sensitive company information.

Microsoft Defender offers a built-in Intune dashboard that simplifies our workflow. While reviewing security information in Defender, we can easily see non-compliant devices flagged by Intune, eliminating the need to switch between applications.

The Intune user experience has become significantly easier. While in the past we required detailed instructions for app installation, recent versions of the Intune app guide users through the process, eliminating the prior challenge of users struggling with installation.

Intune's biggest benefit is its seamless integration with existing Microsoft products in our organization. Since we're already a Microsoft shop, Intune leverages our familiar environment for a straightforward implementation, offering centralized control for our SOC clients. We likely saw the advantages quickly, as with other Microsoft products.

Microsoft Intune effectively secures our BYOD program. If we have employees who need to work from home for some time, we make sure to install Intune on their laptops first.

Microsoft Intune has improved our IT team's efficiency by allowing a Bring-Your-Own-Device policy and facilitating work-from-home options.

The most valuable feature of Intune is the ability to reset a lost device and remove all the data.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for almost four years.

The technical support gets the job done.

Neutral

I would rate Microsoft Intune seven out of ten.

A selling point for us was that Intune reports back to the Microsoft dashboards that we already use.

We are using Microsoft Intune for personal devices, specifically for mobile devices with Android, iOS, and Windows. We have applied the policies over there for device restriction and compliance. We also have a few policies related to Microsoft Defender.

At the security level, it has done wonders. We can easily differentiate between applications. For example, there are a few applications that are only related to the organization's work. We can deploy those applications.

It is very effective. Since the pandemic, we have been in the remote work scenario. We are managing people working from the office and home. Microsoft Intune has been helping us with most tasks we are doing, such as deploying applications and resetting passwords. We are also enrolling the devices. It has saved lots of time and money.

It did not take us long to realize its benefits. We just put our scenarios, and it took us a month or two months.

Microsoft Intune integrates well with other Microsoft solutions. It collaborates well with Defender and Cloud PC. We will see a few more collaborations in the future. It will work with other features of Microsoft as well.

The reporting of Microsoft Intune is very good. They have been introducing new things as per the requirements of customers. It is quite granular compared to other MDM solutions.

The feature I like the most is that we can perform remote tasks. If we want to retire or wipe out personal data or corporate data from a device, we can use Microsoft Intune remotely, and with the click of a button, data is removed automatically. Nothing needs to be done from the end-user side.

The App Protection policies are very effective. With these policies, we can separate the corporate data and personal data. We can block the sharing of information from personal data to corporate data and vice versa.

There are lots of areas. The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for 3 years.

Its stability is great. I would rate it a ten out of ten for stability.

It has great features. It has a good amount of scalability.

They have been great. They have a team that works granularly on the issues. They also have unified support for this. They also have 24/7 support. We get good support from Microsoft. I would rate them a nine out of ten.

Positive

I have only used SCCM which was provided by Microsoft and was totally on-premises. I have not used any MDM solutions from them.

In my organization, it is a hybrid deployment. I was not involved in its initial deployment, but I know that it is a little bit complex for people who are using it from scratch. You need at least an experience with SCCM.

It is deployed at a single location. In terms of maintenance, it does not require any maintenance from our side. Everything is handled by Microsoft.

We have seen an ROI.

I am not that aware of the pricing, but as compared to other MDM solutions, Microsoft is providing a lot of things at the organizational level. So, it is quite reasonable as compared to other MDM solutions.

I would recommend Microsoft Intune to others. If you have any plans for having remote work in your organization, Microsoft Intune has the capability. In the future, you will also see Microsoft handling everything related to Active Directory, which is the backbone of an organization, from Microsoft Intune itself. 

I would advise learning Microsoft Intune as soon as possible because this is the future.

I would rate Microsoft Intune a nine out of ten.

We have policies that need to be enforced regarding mobile devices accessing email and the corporate intranet. We have defined them in Intune so that the devices are not able to connect to the resources that they are not supposed to connect. This is the main use case for which we are using Intune.

It helps with security because everybody is not cautious. For security, it is quite useful. It has had a positive impact on the organization. We have zero tolerance for cybercrime. We do not want any threat to our systems. Intune has reduced the number of security issues. It helps to ensure that the devices are compliant and can connect. It also helps with some tracking.

We understand that as an organization, we are not supposed to interfere with users' personal data. We are able to use Intune to segregate the applications. It controls what they are allowed to see on the bank network.

We have three different categories of staff, and we are able to create and enforce policies based on each category.

We have an overview of the devices in terms of security compliance and from where they are connecting with our network. We can also do root cause analysis when there is any issue. It also helps prevent data loss. If a user is doing something against the policy, it can inform the user.

We have good visibility over mobile devices and workstations. If we have any problem, we know where it is coming from.

Intune has helped with productivity. Before Intune, we were not able to give access to some remote workers because we were not able to check exactly what kind of devices they were using. We had a limited number of people who could work from home. With Intune, we are able to check the devices to allow them. If they cannot finish their work in the office, they can continue from home.

It has helped with compliance. It has helped to ensure that devices comply with the organization's policy. If they are not compliant and secure, they cannot access the resources.

It would be good if, in addition to the minimal patching and compliance, we could also use Intune for application deployment. For instance, if a device is not patched, Intune should have the ability to push not only a Microsoft patch but also other patches, such as a browser patch.

I have been using Intune for six years.

It does not have any problem.

It is scalable.

We were not using any similar solution previously.

We have it on a public cloud. We have Microsoft 365. 

It is not difficult to maintain because it is in the cloud. It is important for us that the capabilities of the Intune Suite are integrated with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security for both cloud and co-managed devices.

We had a Microsoft partner for some configuration and training. We did not have any issues.

We have seen a positive return on investment, but it is hard to quantify the ROI and put a value on it. As a bank, we must protect our data, and the cost of losing the data is very high.

We did not evaluate other options.

I would recommend it to others. I would rate Intune a nine out of ten.

We use it for device compliance and posture, application control, and we use it for integration with our corporate devices.

It brings all of our endpoint and security management tools into one place and makes life a little bit easier. We're a Microsoft partner, and it integrates well and works quite well. We're also a Cisco partner, and it works well with Secure Endpoint and our existing Zscaler product.

Similarly, when it comes to our organization's security, it makes life easy.

Intune also helps reduce the risk of security breaches because we're making sure devices are patched and that firewalls are enabled. And that helps our organization save on costs.

While I don't think you can ever have full visibility and control, Intune certainly allows us to see the applications being used and tells us if things like Windows patches aren't applied to machines. It does a good job. That visibility makes life a little easier.

The user experience with Intune is pretty good, the same as with all Microsoft products, really. Once you're used to one, you can use all of them.

And it's not too bad for securing hybrid work and protecting data on company and BYO devices. As I said, we're using it in conjunction with our Zscaler deployment, so that obviously helps.

Some of the security posture limitations are not brilliant; they're not ideal, but they're not causing us a problem at the moment. It's the granularity: "Is your firewall on? Is BitLocker on?" It's not amazing granularity. But I've looked into other products, like Duo, and they're all similar.

I have been using Intune for four or five years.

We worked with Cisco network monitoring, using Cisco ASA with RSA deployment. It had its issues. It wasn't very user-friendly. If a device wasn't posture-compliant, for example, it wouldn't explain to the user what they needed to do. There was also a bit of limitation with the operation alongside things like antivirus software. It didn't work very well with Sophos and other applications.

Overall, Intune is not bad. It's okay.

We are rolling out the product to manage cloud-based devices. We heavily use it for iOS and Windows devices.

Microsoft Intune improves our organization’s response time. We are supporting an older population of users. It is a key advantage to be able to support users who lock devices quite frequently.

The product’s biggest advantage is its ability to unlock a large number of devices remotely. It supports end-users who tend to lock their devices quite frequently. Its conditional access policy helps us keep the users logged in to their devices.

Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance. The devices fall out of compliance a little too easily. If the users don't check in within a certain amount of time, they become non-compliant, even after having up-to-date standard settings.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for three years, personally. Our organization was using it for one or two years before I joined.

I haven’t encountered any stability issues for the product.

Microsoft Intune supports over 10,000 devices for our customers, primarily using iOS and Windows. We have a large number of managed apps in the aerospace industry. We were able to transfer apps to our devices managing app licensing through Intune.  I rate the product’s scalability a nine out of ten.

The technical support services are pretty decent.

Positive

I can see a good return on investment in terms of the areas it can automate to summarize day-to-day tasks, making them less time-intensive.

Intune has helped us greatly by rolling out conditional access policies with the RBAC settings. It helps us create a security posture for devices.

The product is critical for our organization to keep devices safe. We have a large number of around 300-400 IT executives. It is crucial to be able to limit any one user or group of users within the IT field from a zero-trust standpoint.

In the time aspect, the product helps users get the right tools whenever required. It saves a couple of work hours per month by letting the right IT executives know how to access the devices.

We heavily use iOS space with iPads. I advise others to decide to buy the product depending on the operating systems their environment supports. They should make sure it is the right product for their devices. 

I rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten.
