We performed a comparison between Citrix Endpoint Management and IBM MaaS360 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."By using Microsoft Intune we can control which websites the users can go to and it provides a secure environment for our employees using their laptops that are having access from home. We have installed Intune to control the user's environment minimizing the chances of any hacking."
"The aspects I find most valuable are the managing the data and applications. I can also restrict the users to install any applications. I can also wipe the data if the phone was missplaced or stolen. These are the basics for me."
"We have not experienced any bugs or glitches with this solution."
"Configuration profiles, remediation, scripts, and auto-pilot features are very good."
"I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"If you need only to load a specific profile and you don't have deep security functionalities, et cetera, Intune is very nice and good."
"The solution is easy to use and it has good performance."
"The product is capable of acting in many different ways to help secure architecture."
"A valuable feature of Citrix Endpoint Management is that it's stable. The stability is not a challenge among the move to the cloud."
"The MAM applications of the product are great."
"One key feature is secure application delivery, which enables the secure delivery of mobile and web applications to end-user devices. This ensures data protection and compliance with corporate policies."
"We have seen improvements in compliance management on the devices."
"ShareFile, in particular, is valuable with its ease of sharing, and the best category security that is in the hands of users."
"The most valuable features are mobile device management and security (which allows you to quarantine infected devices)."
"Mobile Device Management, Secure Productivity Suite, and document management are valuable features."
"Maas360 uses distribution groups to deploy apps, which makes it a bit easier than, for example, Intune."
"The most valuable features of IBM MaaS360 are remote control and setting up a phone."
"The ability to send an iPad out to someone and have them auto-provision it when they are out in the field is fantastic. We don't have to have it all configured before we ship it. This is probably the biggest value add."
"It allows us to have an updated inventory of all the devices in real-time with the ability to add personalized information."
"We introduced the product as part of the SOC-2 requirement. The tool's most valuable features include keeping the operating system updated, tracking software inventory, controlling computer administrators, and the ability to wipe a computer in case of a security threat. It helps us to be compliant, and it is one of the reasons we implemented it."
"We've found the scalability to be very good."
"There's quite a lot of development that they can do within their Intune dashboard. I think there are too many lines hyperlinked to move you around. Others, in contrast, give you a simple dashboard and an intuitive administrative walkthrough."
"The main disadvantage seen today is regarding Linux clients. We have a lot of development resources that have Linux on their clients, and we can't manage them on the same platform, as we do with other clients such as macOS and Windows. So, it should have support for Linux clients. It should also have better support for macOS."
"Intune has limited integration with non-Microsoft solutions."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"In the next release, I would like a feature to be able to properly lock down the device. For example, if an attacker or somebody steals the phone, you can be sure that the pin cannot be broken."
"Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention."
"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"I would like to see the ability to deploy custom packages as a Windows 64-bit package, as opposed to the Windows 32-bit, which is the only one available now."
"Citrix needs to improve the architecture. They also need to strengthen the application integration. They keep referring to some things to be required as security, and they keep selling the next level and on-premise separately. They should give the customer the opportunity to decide whether they want to use the next level on-premise or on-cloud, but they should not charge additional fees if the customer wants to deploy the next level on-premise because the customer is already being charged as the end user. They should allow next level on-premise optimization without any additional charges."
"Support for inventory management of Apple devices should be added."
"Requires integrating with ABM before enabling some of the features."
"Citrix often depends on other services like backend data centers, network security, and application firewalls. Issues in these areas can be misinterpreted as Citrix issues by users."
"The tool’s battery usage was high."
"IBM MaaS360 can improve the location reporter. There is a 15-minute delay and this does not allow for any usefulness."
"User interface is basic and not very intuitive."
"They should allow for the building of custom reports with graphics."
"We had a problem with Microsoft computers. If you downloaded emails on a Microsoft Windows Surface PC, that would also require a license. The Outlook application didn't look great for us on a PC."
"IBM MaaS360’s threat management feature needs improvement. It could identify even more malicious attacks."
"The solution needs to offer live technical support. Right now, it's just a chat window and it's rather unhelpful."
"The price could be lower."
"The product needs to improve tech support."
