"The solution appears to be stable and scalable."
"Compliance and the policies that can be set are the most valuable features."

"The Autopilot feature is fantastic. It is a Microsoft product, so it deals best with Microsoft operating systems, but it can integrate with iOS, Mac OS, Linux, and Android."

"Setup is complex. A few users had some issues with it."
"User experience and after-sales support could be better. For example, over the last couple of years, when this COVID scenario was going on, there were multiple attacks on these types of solutions.

It could also be more scalable."
"The product could use additional dashboards."
