We performed a comparison between VMware Workspace ONE and VMware Workstation based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in Unified Endpoint Management (UEM)."It is a comprehensive security solution that not only controls access to enterprise resources but also tracks and prevents unauthorized access, ensuring the protection of sensitive data and preventing potential data loss scenarios."
"A great solution for anyone wanting a modern endpoint device management solution."
"It is a helpful tool to manage BYOD policies."
"The standout features of Intune are its excellent mobile device management and highly effective application management capabilities."
"The synchronization of Intune with other Microsoft solutions is a valuable feature."
"The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"Microsoft's cloud comes with a lot of extra features that are free of charge."
"Intune provides full visibility into all active mobile device users. If their devices are noncompliant with our security policies, I have the flexibility to update them remotely."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the tracking of the devices."
"You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the multi-platform support."
"I found the initial setup to be easy."
"We've configured single sign-on for two or three enterprise customers, and it works very well."
"The remote management and location capabilities are good."
"A very easy to use solution."
"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"VMware Workstation is great for migrating and patching operating systems."
"The product is really easy to use."
"Instead of relying on dual-boot operating systems, I can utilize open-source tools within my infrastructure. This approach allows me to create an in-house cloud platform suitable for testing. VMware Workstation enables me to perform tasks across various operating systems using a single device. It has helped me save time."
"I haven't faced any inconveniences working with this solution. It is very easy to use."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"The simplicity of the deployment and the implementation, and the footprint for the hardware are some of the solution's valuable features."
"The features are good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is an easy-to-use product."
"There are items that require improvements. One is the controls from iOS."
"The installation could be improved to be simplified."
"There are a lot of small use cases where we realized that some technical solution was missing in Microsoft in comparison to other products. For example, it lacks something similar to sensing or location-based rules and configurations."
"Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"The mobile and tablet-based versions need improvement because they are not completely user-friendly, compared to the web version. Also, data synchronization with our existing asset manager, the synchronization between multiple assets and multiple devices, takes a lot of time due to the security scanning. It should be reduced."
"They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular. Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants."
"I think there should be a better tracking of the cell phones used on the Intune."
"This product makes use of SAML across the board, which has seven known security flaws. It would be good if the company created a way to protect against SAML flaws. One way would be to integrate a firewall server or an endpoint out in the cloud with which you could establish trust. If you knew nothing about SAML and you did some Google searches about what SAML is, what are the flaws, and what are the known vulnerabilities, eventually, you'll find that there are seven flaws. There are two methods that you can use to solve those seven problems. They essentially involve putting a firewall or putting rules, such as access controls, so that anybody in the world can't just come in, authenticate, and either be a good guy or be someone trying to knock on my door and get into my house. If I could eliminate that, it would be awesome."
"It's not accurate enough when it comes to sending items to end-users."
"We'd like the customization to be better."
"Setup is not too complex."
"They need a more flexible pricing model."
"Windows 10 management is there, but VMware only recently developed that part, and it's not fully mature. Patch management and other integrations are there as well as the application-pushing part, command line, mandatory commands, etc. Some out-of-the-box solutions should be available to better integrate a broader range of applications and handle application push. That's the roadmap we should look at."
"I would like to see some integration with native Microsoft products such as Anti-value."
"The solution is too complicated. A lot of end customers don't know how to start when they go into the console."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"For some virtual machine configurations, you have to go to the text editor and make the configuration changes, which could be improved."
"Installing VMware Workstation isn't so easy. It's highly complex compared to Windows. I rate it four out of 10 for ease of installation. Setting up a remote desktop only takes a minute or so, but the Workstation itself takes some time."
"The price should be reduced."
"VMware Workstation’s scalability could be improved."
"The big issue that we've always had with VMware, was the disparity between what was presented for a Windows-based client and a Linux-based client. The Windows client was always two or three releases ahead of the Linux client. We always wanted VMware to change and improve the feature sets between the client connector on Linux and on Windows."
"I would like to see more detailed reporting capabilities, particularly around snapshot activity. It would be helpful to have a summary of changes made prior to deploying an application, allowing us to provide comprehensive reports to our management on a regular basis."
"There could be more integration with different tools."
