We performed a comparison between SOTI MobiControl and VMware Workspace ONE 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."Users can make screenshots, and devices only need the minimal version of iOS."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"The performance of Microsoft Intune is good."
"The ability to manage devices with different sets of policies is most valuable."
"It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails."
"It is a very stable and scalable cloud-only solution."
"Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune."
"The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"We use SOTI MobiControl for managing Android device management."
"Because we have a custom, business-to-business applications, the solution's deployment features give us the ability to control the deployment of new versions. We can granularly decide which people or which phone receive updates. It's kind of like having your own "app store" and being able to control what you deploy on the phones... You can see how the deployment is happening; if it's going well or not."
"The Lockdown Kiosk Mode is very useful... When you have 9,000 people remotely using your applications, you want to make sure that they don't play with Facebook while they're supposed to be working... It also prevents installation of software that could be harmful or compromise the security of the phone."
"The keywords menu is better than other MDM. They have an Out of Contact policy, which other MDMs don't have."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that I can manage my devices remotely."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The licensing is simple."
"It has a user-friendly menu that helps manage special purpose devices for security."
"Among the most important improvements is the ability to set up different groups with different deployment policies."
"If an outside person tries to track or hack information, it is not possible without us being notified."
"We recently integrated Workspace ONE with our intelligence report, and this is a great tool from a reporting point of view. In our daily business, we get several requests from businesses to provide an Adobe request for monitoring, whether it is for Android or iOS devices. The main benefit of this tool is that we can exclude the report for applications."
"We've found the solution to be easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the interface with SCAP, which is the Security Content Automation Protocol."
"The solution can scale."
"People who want to adopt this solution may be thinking about it from the end-user's perspective, but this solution is also very friendly for the people who manage it. It's administration-friendly."
"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 difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"In terms of what can be improved, I am looking for better enhancements regarding Apple management, not only on the mobile device, but also on the laptop."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution."
"They need to add more group policies. Intune currently does not have many group policies that you can deploy. Its reporting, which is very limited at the moment, also needs improvement. It will be great if they can add report customization. Its stability needs to be improved. Sometimes, when you register a device in Intune, it doesn't show up instantly on the engine portal on the admin side. They need to provide better support for complicated issues. They also have a long turnaround time."
"It needs certificate provisioning for S/MIME purposes."
"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."
"If the interface was a little bit more intuitive, more easily allowed me to get to where I want to be, that would be a little bit nicer, as far as the file sync goes."
"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."
"Companies like SOTI and Mobile Iron are working with Google to help them manage these devices and eliminate the use of bar code scanner sales and mobile device sales. That's kind of crazy."
"In future releases, I would like to see a better configuration of the dashboard."
"I have used Microsoft Intune but it is more complicated than SOTI MobiControl."
"For the most part, the application deployment works well. Occasionally, when moving a gun, we'll see that we have to manually intervene, when working with the setup."
"I would like them to improve the process of enrolling Android devices. It's much more difficult to enroll Android devices than it is Windows CE devices. There are a lot more steps required."
"Its user interface needs to be improved."
"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA devices."
"The SaaS environment is not very responsive at times, so the performance can be improved in that regard."
"Setup is not too complex."
"The application itself individuals are getting annoyed with it. They are looking to integrate with ABB applications regardless of whether it is Android or iOS based. We are wanting to shift from this application because of the integration issues we are facing."
"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration."
"We're unhappy with the quality of support we get for it. We're unhappy with how upgrades occur, so we are migrating away from it. We have an on-premise AirWatch solution and for us to do upgrades we have to call AirWatch to be able to perform the upgrades. They're busy, and scheduling it is not timely enough for us."
"They could provide DLP integration for applications and specific user account security."
"The solution is too complicated. A lot of end customers don't know how to start when they go into the console."
