We performed a comparison between Microsoft Intune and Red Hat Satellite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Configuration Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."A valuable feature is user enrollment, where users can enroll their devices in their organizations themselves."
"Its direct integration with all the other products that we have from Microsoft is valuable. We're using the E5 license, and we have a whole wealth of different products available. It just makes it easier to have everything from one provider."
"Intune provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms. You can individualize it for your company with the Intune Company Portal app."
"It works well if you have a Microsoft environment."
"One of the biggest advantages of Microsoft Intune is that it brings the management of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and even Linux under a single pane of glass."
"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"The ability to push applications on devices is valuable. You do not have to manually install applications one by one. If you like to use ten different applications, you do not have to manually go and download them one by one. Intune can compile a package for you, and then you can just push them from the admin center."
"The main advantage is that Intune performs its intended functions effectively."
"The 'remote execution' feature further helps manage systems on a consistent basis."
"Fixing is the most valuable. When you deal with a lot of hardware and software and you have a lot of packages, fixing is a bit difficult. You need to track and pull up all such things, but Satellite makes this task easy. We have branches in other locations, and I can manage other branches by using Satellite Capsule, which is a great feature."
"The compliance auditing helped me a lot."
"It plays a significant role in managing the lifecycle of our systems and ensures that we can effectively control and update the software versions to align with our organization's needs."
"Patch management is, for sure, most valuable. For license management and patch management, I would rate it a 10 out of 10."
"I like the integration with other tools."
"It cuts down significantly on the administrative time it takes to patch systems in a large environment."
"The product's most valuable feature is its ability to process patching and updates completely offline without an internet connection."
"It would really be helpful to have the option to manage server operating systems as well, like Windows Server, at least. That way, we could scrap the use of SCCM, which requires a lot of on-premises infrastructure."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"The reporting could be improved, as it's pretty poor compared to other products of this type."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"We faced issues with macOS support. The product should have better inventory and asset management."
"Intune has some limitations when it comes to application updates for third-party applications. You can schedule an update, but when it's a package setup, you need to supercede and replace it each time."
"There can be some added features, such as an improved dashboard. Any new feature that could be a benefit to our customers would be good."
"There are a couple of issues with stability."
"Improving integration could lead to a more unified management experience for multiple operating systems within our data center."
"Satellite should be bundled with Ansible Tower and the Ansible Automation platform. We face challenges from a security perspective because we have micro-segmentation in our network. For each server we provision, we have to set permissions to different ports so that the servers can communicate with Satellite. If I have a single server with Satellite and the Ansible Automation Platform, it would be easier to manage security issues instead of having two or three products on various servers."
"The product's automation capabilities need enhancement."
"I would like the direct integration with insights to be re-established."
"Red Hat Satellite's pricing needs improvement."
"I would like to see the scalability, user interface, and reporting features improved and for the solution to be simplified. Instead of having complex engineering, it should be simple for the user."
"The documentation could be better."
"It has not been significantly updated in a while."
