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."It's easy to manage and easy to configure."
"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."
"It's easy to manage."
"The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console."
"Intune enables us to manage our devices from anywhere."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"The solution is stable."
"It allows our clients to have the confidence to centrally manage policies for security. It helps them in securing the organization from a technology aspect."
"The product's most valuable feature is its ability to process patching and updates completely offline without an internet connection."
"The compliance auditing helped me a lot."
"The most valuable features of Red Hat Satellite are its support, simplicity, and patch management."
"The product helps me to manage a large number of servers from one console."
"It cuts down significantly on the administrative time it takes to patch systems in a large environment."
"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."
"You don't need to depend on any third party. It's a complete solution for patch and configuration management when integrated with the existing system."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is vulnerability management."
"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."
"The security features should be improved."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"An area for improvement is the absence of seamless integration, particularly with external dashboards."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"There are items that require improvements. One is the controls from iOS."
"Intune's reporting and logging could be improved. When troubleshooting, it's difficult to collect the logs and determine what's happening. If I want to filter out the compliant devices, I can see it from the logs, but I would like the option to drill down further."
"The feature that allows us to import the business application from the configuration manager to Intune is not very good at this time."
"It should basically include a complete slew of system management and monitoring tools such as Nagios. It should be a single pane of glass that gives us a complete solution. It is a good solution, but it is missing a few important things. We're using Capsule for DMVs on other secured zones. Capsule is a part of Satellite to be a proxy of sorts."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The licensing is a bit expensive."
"Red Hat Satellite has a short life cycle and we constantly need to update."
"The solution's initial setup is a little bit tricky."
"It has not been significantly updated in a while."
"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."
"I would like the direct integration with insights to be re-established."
"Regarding the product's ability to support third-party tools, Red Hat doesn't support all the layers from the open-source version of Linux."
