Workspace ONE UEM Reviews

The solution was based on Linux and Windows. We used to test other systems. The solution is quite useful if we are not using encryption. The solution was quite good for my private use cases. It is easy to start something and work from scratch.

I tried to use the tool on an encrypted disk, but it was inconvenient. The encryption was difficult. The product must be available for more hardware.

I have used the solution in the past twelve months.

I rate the tool’s stability a ten out of ten.

I rate the tool’s scalability a ten out of ten. I use the product for my daily routine work.

I rate the ease of setup an eight or nine out of ten. The product is installed on our hardware. It's not available for each server and hardware. The deployment took a few weeks.

I rate the pricing a five out of ten.

Currently, I am using Proxmox. Proxmox is more available for simple tasks on PCs and Laptops.

Currently, the firmware is not working on the hardware. I do simple projects. Integrating the solution with other enterprise systems has moderately improved our operational efficiency. I will recommend the product to others. It is quite good. I like the tool. Overall, I rate the solution a five out of ten.

All the features, including Web, Android, and iOS Management, are valuable. Workspace ONE Intelligence is also a valuable tool. The streamlining of device management tasks is incorporated into the tool. We do not have to do much. The product has fully automated features that help people do tasks easily. It has been improving remote workforce support for eight years. It provides access to all our systems at any time from any place. It also provides seamless integration with third-party tools and single sign-on.

The technical support could be improved.

I have been using the solution for 13 years.

I rate the tool’s stability a ten out of ten.

I rate the tool’s scalability a ten out of ten. I recommend the solution for small and big organizations.

We do not use support much since we are experienced. Product-related issues occur due to new functions. It is sometimes difficult for the first-level support to understand the full context of the problem.

Positive

We did not face any challenges while implementing the solution. We manage very big customers to very small customers. They are doing well. The tool is easy to deploy and easy to use. It is transparent to the end user.

The solution’s pricing is favorable.

I have used solutions from Microsoft, SAP, and MobileIron.

Overall, I rate the product a ten out of ten.

We use the solution with Horizon to set up VRA for new solutions.

When we publish the applications, getting the credentials to log in and keep the application up or running is easy.

The database gets corrupted when used in the cluster. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I have been using VMware Identity Manager since 2015-16.

The product is unstable.

You can use it anywhere. It's for everyone and every business.

I rate the solution’s scalability a five out of ten.

The initial setup is difficult and takes 30 minutes to complete. Depending on the customer, the deployment and configuration could take hours to weeks.

I rate the initial setup a four out of ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven or eight out of ten.

I use VMware Identity Manager to make it easy for clients to access apps with one login.

VMware Identity Manager has saved IT time by eliminating the need for daily station visits and manual installations. Now, we deliver a virtual desktop environment to user groups, providing all the necessary tools for browser-based work or tasks on desktops, streamlining their workflow.

The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules. They help ensure compliance by managing access lists, determining who can access specific locations, and assigning priority to different aspects of the tool.

In terms of improvement, I would like better integration for deploying programs with binary files. As for future releases, I hope to see features like seamless migrations with collaboration tools to simplify tasks, especially for devices like IP phones and Cisco Call Manager.

I have been using VMware Identity Manager for a year.

We have not had any stability issues with VMware Identity Manager. I would rate the stability as an eight out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of the solution as a seven out of ten. We have over 1,000 end users of VMware Identity Manager at our company.

I would rate VMware's technical support a solid ten out of ten. They are highly responsive, precise, and provide specific assistance.

Positive

We switched to VMware Identity Manager from Citrix Workspace mostly because of the price difference.

The initial setup was straightforward. The deployment takes about a day.

I would rate the costliness of the solution as an eight out of ten. The licensing costs for the solution vary based on user count, so there is no fixed value. It depends on factors like the number of users and specific needs.

Overall, I would rate VMware Identity Manager as an eight out of ten.

My clients are using VMware Workspace ONE for information protection and enterprise mobility management.

The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is its reliability.

The integration on the application side could improve.

I have been using VMware Workspace ONE for approximately three years.

I rate the stability of VMware Workspace ONE a nine out of ten.

Our clients are mostly medium-sized businesses with users from 200 to 2,000.

The support provided by the vendor is good. However, they have a limited skill set in providing support.

I rate the support of VMware Workspace ONE an eight out of ten.

Positive

The initial setup of VMware Workspace ONE is of a middle level of difficulty. It requires special training and skill sets.

The time implementation can take between 15 days to three months.

I rate the initial setup of VMware Workspace ONE an eight out of ten.

The price of VMware Workspace ONE is expensive. However, for the features that are provided, the price is reasonable. There is a subscription to use the solution.

I rate the price of VMware Workspace ONE a seven out of ten.

The decision to implement VMware Workspace ONE depends entirely on the specific use cases at hand. If an organization requires a unified console for managing multiple aspects such as cloud services, email, information protection, and mobile endpoint management (MEM), then this solution would be suitable. However, if the requirement is solely for mobile device management (MDM), alternative solutions may be more appropriate.

I rate VMware Workspace ONE a nine out of ten.

The solution's use cases can vary depending on the organization. For example, we have deployed projects for BYOD, Mac Management, and Windows Management solutions. Each project is different and tailored to the specific needs of the organization. One of the benefits for our customers is the ease of use with a single platform to manage all devices. The dashboard is visually appealing and provides compliance insights for CIOs and CTOs to review.

Windows Patch Management is a wonderful feature of the solution.

The solution is an improved version. Pricing is a limitation. I think it's on the higher side, so if it were cheaper, it would benefit more organizations.

I have experience with VMware Workspace ONE for more than five years. I am working as a SI, and my company has a partnership with Microsoft or VMware. We are a premium partner for VMware. Also, I am using the latest version of the solution.

It is a very stable product.

It is a highly scalable solution, allowing you to start with a hundred licenses and scale up to multiple lakh licenses.

Sometimes, we face an issue and raise a ticket. The technical support team is fantastic and resolves the issue. VMware is a well-known brand that doesn't need any acknowledgment.

The setup process was not complex since my company mostly sells cloud-based instances, which means they are already pre-configured. We only need to configure the policies based on the use cases, and it works seamlessly. Therefore, the setup process is effortless. Additionally, the solution does not require any maintenance as it is a cloud instance, and all maintenance will be taken care of by VMware.

My company's customers have experienced a return on investment using the solution.

Currently, the product is priced at around 50 USD. However, in India, there is a similar product available for around 25 USD.

In comparison to other tools, VMware Workspace ONE has some cons, especially from a pricing perspective. However, one of its pros is that other tools may not manage identity or access as effectively. Despite this advantage, the pricing of VMware Workspace ONE is still considered relatively high.

VMware products, in my opinion, is an exceptional product, and it allows for the management of a complete device fleet from a single console. It can manage Windows, Mac, Android, or iOS devices, and policy configurations are straightforward to deploy. I would recommend this solution to others since I have already recommended it to most of my customers. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

The solution is good for controlling mobile devices centrally. When you have a distributed network, it's able to easily manage and centralize.

It's provided us with a lot of benefits. We can control the app and wipe any data remotely in case of loss or theft. 

We can also apply patches to ensure the latest versions are available.

The solution allows us to control everything centrally. 

It's meeting our requirements right now. It's aligned with our internet policy as well as our security policy. 

It's stable and reliable. 

The solution can scale. 

The setup is pretty straightforward. 

Sometimes, we have challenges with remote patching and remote version upgrades. We'd like the product to improve these capabilities to make patch management especially a bit more straightforward. 

We do not need any extra features. 

Technical support could be better. 

I've been using the solution for five years.

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze.

The solution is scalable and easy to expand. 

We have 100 users on it right now. 

Technical support is okay, however, it needs a bit of improvement. 

Positive

We did not use a different solution previously. 

The initial setup was very easy. 

We did a standard deployment process only. There are no customizations that we made. 

There is no maintenance required. 

We handled the solution's deployment in-house, as well as with help from the vendor. 

I can't speak to the exact pricing and licensing. It's pretty reasonable in terms of the cost. 

I am using the latest version of the solution. 

While it depends on the business needs and the policy requirements, I'd recommend the solution. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

I use Workspace ONE for my work with Homeland Security, but we're getting rid of it. VMware is the current mobile user platform for Homeland Security, specifically weapons of mass destruction. I've been consulting with them for the last four years, and I moved over to weapons of mass destruction four months ago. 

They're switching from VMware to Intune, and I was concerned with the due diligence. They've made a decision. and I'm helping them make that transition so that they can properly integrate the state and local devices for detecting chemical, biological, and nuclear attacks.

I just know some people at VMware at the senior level, and I talk to them when necessary. Homeland Security wasn't using the product how they should and they didn't reach out to VMware to identify the holes in the processes or inadequacies of the application that could've been addressed. 

The people in the weapons of mass destruction division didn't have the technical competencies to understand the software solutions, so they brought in a consulting company called Mobile Mentor, which is an Intune reseller. I told them that wasn't a reason to switch. 

VMware Workspace ONE is like any other product. You need to work with the vendor's software engineers to get the features you need to support your infrastructure. They can provide the technical modifications to the software you need to support your environment. 

For example, the Department of Defense has a peculiar IT infrastructure in terms of how they use SonicWall for mobile devices. If someone's using an Apple iPhone or an Android device, how do you partition it to support the mission? Public sector workers need to use a government cell because of the sensitive business they conduct on those devices. Mobile devices also include laptops and cell phones, creating more complexity. 

The bigger vendors like VMware, Insight, and MobileIron can assign engineers to customers. You can work with them to develop the right competency to use the product. 

I rate VMware Workspace ONE eight out of 10. 

Our primary use case is to control the email services for mobile devices and we are controlling that just to avoid leakage of the information for those devices.

The most valuable features are the ones that control the leaking.

The application itself individuals are getting annoyed with it. They are looking to integrate with ABB applications regardless of whether it is Android or iOS based. We are wanting to shift from this application because of the integration issues we are facing.

I have been working with VMware Workspace ONE for the past three years.

We currently have around one thousand end users.

I have spoken with technical support many times. I would rate them an eight on a scale of one to ten.

The initial setup is moderately complex. On a scale of one to five, I would rate that a five. The deployment time takes about seven months.

The pricing currently is higher than the competition.

It is based on the requirements. If he has Intune and has the Microsoft license already in place, it is based on those requirements, and based on the circumstances. But ultimately it is a good choice, I would not say it is a bad choice. I would rate VMware Workspace ONE an eight on a scale of one to ten.

A user can leverage the solution if they basically want to integrate the system with two-factor authentication or multifactor authentication to access desktops and sessions. 

Users also leverage the access portal from a remote host and gain access to the system.

The authentication integration is great. It can be combined with basically different kinds of authentication mechanisms and provide a single sign-on. That's a typical use case that I see as a solution provider.

The solution is stable. 

My understanding is it is not too hard to set up. 

The solution can scale. 

There are a lot of difficulties whenever people have a lot of configurations in it, basically related to security certificate configurations and integration with VMware Horizon. I see technical people are sometimes struggling to do this. I don't know whether it is some knowledge gap or whether it is the difficulty of the product. However, there have been some cases where we've had issues, and the knowledge is not ubiquitous. You cannot find it easily. Not many engineers have the right training or knowledge to deal with it correctly.

Technical support could be better.

It would be great if it had some sort of password wallet integrated within it.

I've been familiar with the solution for two or three years. I was a customer, and now I am a presales manager working as a reseller. 

We've seen no issues with stability or reliability. It doesn't crash or freeze. It is reliable. 

While I have never tried to scale the solution, and we don't have many requirements for that functionality, my understanding it can scale. 

Technical support could be better. Sometimes, when we raise a ticket, it takes time for the engineers to assist.

Neutral

I haven't actually been part of a live deployment. That said, it's my understanding that it is not that difficult. New users should be aware that integrating it with multiple other things will take time. 

You only need one expert to handle the deployment since it's a one-time task. However, they need to be knowledgable to handle the process. In our case, we have two or three people who can handle deployment tasks.

We are a reseller and a partner. 

We are using an older version in a deployment right now. 

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

If you have a use case and if you have VMware products already, it'll come along with some of the licenses, so you do not have to pay additional fees. That is one advantage. It'll also be easy to integrate with VMware Horizon, Horizon Stack Workspace, VMware Workspace One, and other related products.
