We performed a comparison between 42Gears SureMDM and SOTI MobiControl based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"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."
"Its protection policies are most valuable. It protects mobile devices as well as individual apps. It is pretty scalable, and its documentation is also pretty good. It is also pretty straightforward to deploy."
"The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult."
"Stable solution at a good price."
"Microsoft's cloud comes with a lot of extra features that are free of charge."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"Intune enables us to manage our devices from anywhere."
"This solution is very dynamic. I can do what I need to do with it."
"Payloads, application publishing, and cataloging features are valuable to our customers."
"The most valuable features of 42Gears SureMDM include tracking location and pushing applications."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The tool's most valuable feature is a remote connection to the devices. You can also push and lock applications. It helps us lock devices for professional use to control which applications can be installed."
"Its dashboards are valuable. It is easy to access dashboards and implement policies."
"The solution's customer support is good."
"The best feature is its compatibility with various device versions, such as Windows, making it work seamlessly."
"The company's support is the best. That'd be the number one thing."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to deploy apps on the fly. We're able to update and deploy new applications, directly from the cloud. That's been a huge feature for us. Instead of putting hands on each of these devices - and we're talking thousands of devices - we can manage it all from the backend."
"The most valuable features are remote control, remote monitoring of the mobile phone data, GPS localization, automobile network management, identity management, speaker logging, and remote management of mobile content."
"The most valuable features are remote control and geo-fencing."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that I can manage my devices remotely."
"The SOTI MobiControl Assist tool is very good for remote controlling devices for troubleshooting. SOTI MobiControl is very helpful."
"We use SOTI MobiControl for managing Android device management."
"Sometimes, customers compare it with AirWatch, but the concept of Intune is different from other solutions. It's an application management app. It gets a bit difficult to explain it to customers, but it's not a product limitation. It takes a presale document or presentation to explain it to customers."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"Integrating certain group policies can be challenging and may necessitate using on-premises systems to integrate them with Microsoft Intune."
"Microsoft Intune needs to improve the initial login process."
"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."
"Regarding mobile devices, Intune is good, but there are other services that I would say are ahead of Intune from an administration and reporting point of view."
"As a partner, we consider 42Gears to be a unified endpoint management (UEM) solution. So, we should be able to manage users with this particular solution. This is something that is currently not there. It is probably an area for improvement for 42Gears."
"User creation on Mac must be improved."
"The product is not so convenient to deploy or to configure."
"42Gears SureMDM needs to improve support because it may take around one to two days to receive a revert."
"The user interface and customization features are not the best and could be improved."
"The dashboards could be improved."
"The solution’s pricing could be made cheaper."
"Reporting could be better. When I try to run a report, it doesn't have a filter or even a feature where I can choose what I have in the report. That's been a struggle since the first time I used it so I just don't touch it anymore."
"I would like to see some SMS integration so people can send data directly from a mobile phone through SMS when there's no internet."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"The solution could use better reporting."
"The previous version, for example, had the networking signal and that feature was great. When we were troubleshooting, we could find the level of the network I/O. If the worker was working in a corner of the warehouse where the signal was not as strong as in another part of the warehouse, we could tell, "Just move a little and you will have coverage for your device." That was great. I don't know why they removed it from the newer version."
"SOTI MobiControl could improve by being more user-friendly."
"Maybe if there were tiers, it would be better as then companies could lower the pricing by going to the lower deployment model."
"You need to get used to the admin console. I think it could be improved. It's not the best I've seen. Certainly, the software has a lot of features so you necessarily have some complexity in the interface, but I've seen better. They could make it easier in certain aspects."
