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 device profiling which uses the official Outlook email enabled us to control the screenshot feature and prevent copying outside of the organization's application."
"Internet-based access with security is what I have found to be most valuable. It is also a stable and scalable solution."
"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."
"I haven't used other mobile device management solutions, but compared to SCCM, we eliminate a lot of on-premises infrastructure and maintenance by using Intune."
"The feature I like the most is that we can perform remote tasks. If we want to retire or wipe out personal data or corporate data from a device, we can use Microsoft Intune remotely, and with the click of a button, data is removed automatically. Nothing needs to be done from the end-user side."
"As the solution is a software as a service, the scalability is unlimited."
"The solution is easy to use, simple to understand for those new to using it, and combined with the other Microsoft products it makes for an overall good package."
"The most valuable features of SOTI MobiControl include location tracking, geofencing, remote device control, and SOTI self-service mobile browsers."
"The other feature, that I have got to say is just leaps and bounds ahead of SOTI's competition, is the remote control feature. It's a true admin remote-control, so we don't have to have somebody on the other side of the device allowing us access to the device... We're able to pull up a tablet or phone and take pictures of it and we can actually videotape what's going on, on the device itself, and that's been huge."
"The remote control we have helps us a lot."
"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 other one would be just how easy it is to deploy applications."
"The keywords menu is better than other MDM. They have an Out of Contact policy, which other MDMs don't have."
"The product provides us with information about the incidents. It helped us block specific devices remotely."
"We can impose cybersecurity requirements."
"It was easy to use."
"The performance is good, and it is easy to configure."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is its reliability."
"The product enables us to access our internal applications from anywhere in the world."
"The most valuable feature depends on the use case of the clients. However, one feature I like is the Kiosk Mode. In the Kiosk Mode in most cases, the clients only can make available one application developed by the solution and permit the employee or the final client to use only this one application for interaction. This provides a security control layer limiting only one application functionally."
"The product has fully automated features that help people do tasks easily."
"The product offers integration capabilities with third-party solutions."
"Microsoft Intune has a latency response time issue. The latency has room for improvement."
"We would like to see support for Chrome and/or devices for Chromebooks."
"The current Intune reporting functionality could benefit from some improvements."
"Microsoft Intune could improve by being more user-friendly and having it geared toward device management. The graphic interface is not very good."
"The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments."
"It would be good if, in addition to the minimal patching and compliance, we could also use Intune for application deployment. For instance, if a device is not patched, Intune should have the ability to push not only a Microsoft patch but also other patches, such as a browser patch."
"I'd suggest adding more features for macOS in Intune. There should be more functionality for managing macOS. There should be a better capability for pushing things down on macOS. Currently, Intune is not capable of managing macOS at the same level as Windows."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"The quality of the support service is poor. The headquarters are not very responsive. And, the actual quality of the software has its drawbacks."
"The remote screen of the solution gets stuck at times. So, that needs to be improved."
"Adding more features for iOS devices would be an improvement."
"I wish that I had some more tutorials and educational resources on how to use the product."
"They should improve the lockdown feature."
"SOTI MobiControl's user interface is very tough to handle and should be made more user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive to our requests."
"It's not accurate enough when it comes to sending items to end-users."
"The app installer is something that they should really change. It creates a lot of confusion for the user."
"I would like to see more service notifications."
"VMware Workspace ONE for the new users or the new clients that they try to procure and learn it, there can have difficulties. It does not have user-friendly portals. The portal seems to be more user-friendly in Microsoft solutions."
"AirWatch doesn't seem to empower IT admins to try new things or get creative with implementations."
"The solution is too complicated. A lot of end customers don't know how to start when they go into the console."
"Patching, fixing, and training for VMware Workspace ONE are areas that need to be improved."
