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."The scalability is a ten out of ten."
"Installing the instances and performing upgrades is smooth and clean."
"The initial setup is super easy, it takes like two minutes. Literally a one-click deployment."
"The solution is scalable and provides over 100 rules."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"The features I found most valuable in Intune are its user visibility and troubleshooting options."
"Agile and easy to deploy MDM solution that covers the maximum number of policies. Stable, scalable, and with knowledgeable technical support."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"The solution is stable."
"Based on my experience, I find Intune very flexible for managing Windows devices. We can use scripting, and we can make use of the self-service portal or the company portal to publish some of the applications for Windows."
"The overall user experience is quite nice. I have no complaints from end users regarding their devices enrolled in Intune."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Microsoft Intune is its seamless integration with Azure Active Directory, offering capabilities akin to Group Policy Objects."
"The reboot process for AWS instances could be improved. Microsoft Azure does not have this problem, so AWS could consider making their instances more robust. You would not need to reboot your instances frequently to replace the hardware and stuff. They can look for a better approach or mechanism to improve in the future. The concern is that you need to plan for the outage when you reboot an instance. You need to have a maintenance window where you can properly reboot the instance without affecting your application. When Amazon announces that you need to reboot an instance and are not ready, this becomes a problem."
"The solution is missing a configuration that can assist us when writing our programming languages."
"There is room for improvement in built-in tools, they are not up to the mark."
"Improvements are needed as per customer requirements."
"There is still a gap between SCCM and Intune, especially in the reporting, inventory, and software deployment areas."
"Could benefit from user having more control over devices."
"I'd like some more reporting so that I don't have to delve into PowerShell and I can pull more of the local device information such as memory, apps installed, etc. It would be nice to be able to see the apps that are present there but might not be managed. For example, if they installed 7Zip, it could report that back via an installed program or feature to see what was currently installed."
"Microsoft Intune is not user-friendly to manage and has room for improvement."
"Intune could add more Linux security features and more integration with on-prem devices. The application deployments can also be improved."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"We faced issues with macOS support. The product should have better inventory and asset management."
"The technical support could be improved."
