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."The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"The Microsoft Windows Autopilot and Defender policies are the most valuable features of this solution."
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"The biggest benefits of Intune are the ability to push changes and the added security. When we moved forward with Defender, we onboarded all those machines automatically. That helps dramatically. For a while, we were left with machines that weren't protected. We could see where people had done things they shouldn't have done, and Defender saved our skins a few times. It didn't happen a lot, but it happened enough that it made us glad we made that decision."
"One of the main features of the solution is it allows the management of many devices in different ways."
"The stability is good."
"With on-premises Active Directory, the main challenge was that we had no control when a user was working from home. We didn't know what exactly a user was doing and whether the AV was up to date or not. Intune provides better control of their machines."
"It works well if you have a Microsoft environment."
"We can do auto patch updates using SOTI. SOTI has been well placed in terms of the number of endpoints it can handle."
"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."
"All features are useful. It is useful for preventing the use of unauthorized software on corporate-owned devices. It provides an option to lock the devices for unauthorized software. The devices can only be used under the supervision of the device manager."
"The most valuable features are remote control and geo-fencing."
"The admin part, where I'm adding users, is not too bad. It's easy enough to use."
"I have experience with technical support. They are quite good. Also, they very quickly understand the issues and what are the requirements from my side. Response time is also good."
"It is a scalable solution."
"One of the most valuable features is the remote control. If there are issues in the field, we can remote into those devices and see what kind of issues they are."
"The solution can scale."
"The bigger vendors like VMware, Insight, and MobileIron can assign engineers to customers. You can work with them to develop the right competency to use the product."
"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"We've configured single sign-on for two or three enterprise customers, and it works very well."
"It has good stability."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is it provides the ability to find out the location of devices and manage end-point solutions when they are deployed, and keep them secure."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the multi-platform support."
"Good device management and good integration with third parties."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"Reporting could be improved. It needs to be more expensive and robust."
"There needs to be more support for Mac operating systems."
"There is room for improvement in integrating additional features such as Purview and SharePoint activities into Intune."
"Enhancements for managing MacOS more comprehensively would be beneficial."
"They could also make it easier to use because there are some other products that may be easier to use in terms of the look and feel of the dashboard."
"Intune should be much more granular in terms of supporting more Android cellular devices."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"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."
"Where they need improvement is not as much on the technical side but, rather, on their communication. In general, that has been poor. Account management and communication could be greatly improved..."
"They should improve the lockdown feature."
"The management console could be improved to be a little bit more user-friendly. Some of the stuff is a little bit cumbersome, some of it feels like an engineering solution, but otherwise it's pretty good."
"SOTI MobiControl's user interface is very tough to handle and should be made more user-friendly."
"The documentation could be improved in SOTI MobiControl."
"Maybe if there were tiers, it would be better as then companies could lower the pricing by going to the lower deployment model."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite complex."
"One of the things that I want them to improve on, if possible, is the management of Mac devices, MacBook Pro, for example. They do it, but they have scope for improvement, in my opinion. It's not that it's that bad, it just a small need."
"Integration with Microsoft needs improvement. There are some dependencies with Microsoft that aren't 100% yet, for example: compliance synchronization."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"The length of time it takes to deploy an application could improve."
"Its performance is quite good on Apple phones or even mid-range phones. If you install an AirWatch on a phone that is not too powerful, you will have performance issues. That's only because the phone is not too powerful, and there is not enough memory, etc. They could do a lighter version for a less powerful phone. It would also be useful for very small companies that don't want to spend money on expensive phones. Having said that, I don't think that is their target market. If their target market is enterprise, all enterprises perhaps have an agreement with Google or Apple, and they would get a phone that has already been tested, and they know that AirWatch will work on that phone."
"The only downside to the solution is that the dashboard is very confusing."
"We'd like the customization to be better."
