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."It is a very stable and scalable cloud-only solution."
"One of the standout features of Intune is its seamless accessibility to work data, eliminating the need to be tied to an office or a desktop."
"The solution appears to be stable and scalable."
"At the moment, Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"As the solution is a software as a service, the scalability is unlimited."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"It helps in enrolling, managing, and relocating the devices quickly."
"The keywords menu is better than other MDM. They have an Out of Contact policy, which other MDMs don't have."
"The remote control technology and screen-sharing absolutely help us resolve issues faster. If there is a remote user who has difficulties or does not understand an error or a problem or a crash, the support team can remote control the phone and see right away what is on the screen and act on the problem. We can debug, we can help, we can reboot the phone."
"We can do auto patch updates using SOTI. SOTI has been well placed in terms of the number of endpoints it can handle."
"It is very reliable, and their support is excellent."
"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 feature is the fact that I can manage my devices remotely."
"The most valuable features are remote control and geo-fencing."
"I found the initial setup to be easy."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is that it can support most end users' enterprise applications."
"The location and remote management services are the most valuable."
"It's all about centralizing your data and making sure that your data is centralized and secure."
"The performance is good, and it is easy to configure."
"It has all of the features that we need to use and that we want to use."
"We used to have a system before, Mac OS Open Directory server and this open directory became obsolete because Apple decided to stop the enterprise market, so there was no other alternative for us to use. We chose this to replace the open directory and we found that it has many more features than the previous solution. We totally rely on it right now to manage all the devices on campus."
"Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."
"An issue we have run into with Microsoft Endpoint Manager is that we cannot patch third-party products like Adobe and Chrome with it."
"There needs to be more support for Mac operating systems."
"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."
"Intune doesn't provide much control over Windows servers. It's something we struggle with."
"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."
"The configuration could be better by consolidating options and making it simpler."
"For an existing customer who has an SCCM, it would need to be upgraded to an MECM first before I can introduce Microsoft Intune."
"I know that their AI pieces are at the infancy stage, but allowing users to do more tagging for information would be an interesting thing because Intune also directly integrates with Azure. Because a lot of the devices are hosted with that, you also get a lot of tagging of user data and other things like that."
"The main feature that we would like to have with Soti is the ability to push an iOS update without having people come to my office. That is the main reason why we went with Soti. And that feature is not working on my version."
"In future releases, I would like to see a better configuration of the dashboard."
"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..."
"The solution could use better reporting."
"I have used Microsoft Intune but it is more complicated than SOTI MobiControl."
"They should improve the lockdown feature."
"Most of our devices are Android, they're Google related, so we need access from Google to do certain things. There are ways around that, but that's something that we're really looking for. How can we control the Apple Air? How can we get into that app?... How can we make sure that that app doesn't try to update in the middle of the day when our driver needs it?"
"The product’s features for managing Windows devices need improvement."
"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA devices."
"Feature-wise, it is fine, but its pricing could be better, given that Microsoft is on a bundling spree. AirWatch would benefit from reducing the license pricing per user per month."
"There is no Apple zero-day support for updates."
"When it comes to deployment and maintaining security, there should be an integrated console where you have a singular view of all of the products from the same OEM."
"The Content Locker cannot inherit permissions for the Windows Public Folder. If they could integrate with Microsoft on this point, it would be the perfect functionality."
"In terms of the inventory management side, as in the invoice management, the stock management and the entire inventory of an organization is lagging a bit in comparison to Blackberry or other EMM solutions."
"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."
"There are some bugs that our team needs to work around. It required some API integration required because visitor integration was not there. For example, we are currently working on a tunnel issue, and VMware doesn't have this solution."
